Weapons4

A sturdy shortsword forged from Blackroot iron common in Gracklstugh. Balanced, keen edge; favored by duergar militia.

Superior balance grants +1 to Sleight of Hand checks when using as a tool

A +1 longsword tempered in mineral-laden waters. The blade has a faint sheen in torchlight.

Atk None beyond +1 enchantment

Thick-beaded handaxe with short haft; often used both as tool and weapon. Heavy duty socket for haft replacement.

Can be used as a climbing piton (DC -2 to checks when used properly)

Short, balanced hammers with weighted heads—excellent for close-range throwing and cave work.

One hammer in the set is magnetically balanced to return to the thrower if the throw hits (requires attunement; returns at end of turn)
Armor4

Chain shirt reinforced with binding plates along the ribs. Slightly heavier but more durable in cave brawls.

AC +13Treated to resist acidic drip common in the Underdark: advantage on saves vs. nonmagical acid damage once per short rest

Scale mail infused with faint duergar shadowwork. Provides modest protection and a subtle coolness that helps blend into dark halls.

AC +14Wearer gains +1 to Stealth checks made in dim light or darkness

A round shield rimmed and faced with layered deepstone for extra resilience against blows and drips of corrosive minerals.

AC +2Grants +2 to AC when wielded (represents standard shield + extra plating). Advantage on saves vs. being knocked prone once per long rest

Leather bracers inlaid with ember-glass. Grants small offensive spark—useful for fights in tunnels or lighting fuses.

Once per short rest, when you hit with a weapon attack you can deal an extra fire damage. Grants resistance to fire damage while attuned.
Potions1

A thick, iron-tinged liquid bottled in a squat vial. Cures one condition or an effect similar to the spell lesser restoration.

When consumed, cures one disease or one condition (paralyzed or poisoned) as per lesser restoration
Miscellaneous6

A thin, viscous oil extracted from deepmetal seams. Coat a weapon or armor to grant temporary resilience.

Apply to a weapon or armor as an action; for 1 hour, weapon deals +1 necrotic damage () on hit, or armor grants +1 AC against nonmagical damage

A complete smithing set: heavy hammers, portable forge components, prongs, swage blocks, and hardened tongs made to duergar specs.

Advantage on checks to repair or craft metal items in the Underdark; grants +2 to checks when used by someone trained

Small iron spikes treated with a slow-acting underdark toxin. Primarily used for traps or setting hazards in tunnels.

Poison: Con save or take the poison damage and be poisoned for 1 minute (repeat save ends). Nonlethal by design for harassment

Crossbow bolts tempered with a faintly obsidian sheen. Less likely to chip when firing into stone or bone.

Bolts deal normal damage; on a critical hit, target has disadvantage on next Perception check relying on sight for 1 minute

Kega melts and reworks mundane metal objects into ingots or re-forges a single simple weapon.

Turnaround: 1 day for most simple items; expedited service available for extra 10 gp

A shallow rune etched by duergar smiths. Imbues a single nonmagical weapon with a +1strike-like punch until dispelled (functions like a temporary +1 weapon for 7 days).

Atk Lasts 7 days or until removed; requires Kega or another qualified smith to apply

Shop Atmosphere

“Kega speaks in clipped sentences and expects payment in coin or ore — he gives discounts for ingots, rare mineral finds, or favors to his 'clan.' He keeps a chained, sleeping grick beneath the front counter (never touch it). The shop is dim, warm, red-hued from coals, and filled with the scent of ozone and iron; Kega hums old duergar forging songs when concentrating. He refuses to work on items intended for surface worship or opened light temples.”
