A single sheet of kelp-bleached vellum, unusually resistant to salt and mildew — ideal for composing scrolls intended for seafaring folk.

Five sheets of the same salt-sheened parchment. Discounted for scribes and merchants.

A reliable seagull feather quill paired with a small bottle of good black ink. Elowen swears by this combination.

Aroma of brine and wild kelp. Add a drop to ink before writing to make a scroll far less prone to water damage and smudging.

preserves ink and reduces chance of script degradation from water

A brass-and-iron tube with a tight-sealing cork and salted-leather strap. Keeps a single scroll dry during storms.

Miscellaneous12

A neatly penned scrap that once read grants the Guidance cantrip's small bonus to an ability check.

casts Guidance (cantrip) as if from a 1st-level caster

A light, sea-green script; reading it summons a spectral hand to manipulate objects at range.

casts Mage Hand (cantrip); hand appears with a faint spray of salt when first summoned

A playful little scroll for minor tricks—cleaning, warming, or producing harmless sensory flourishes.

casts Prestidigitation (cantrip)

A small square of vellum with an illusionary flourish; perfect for distractions ashore or at sea.

casts Minor Illusion (cantrip)

A tidy scroll scribed with runes that, when read alongside the item to be identified, reveals its properties.

casts Identify (1st level); functions as the ritual when applicable

A healing scroll that channels restorative magic to knit flesh and staunch bleeding.

casts Cure Wounds (1st level) — heals + your spellcasting modifier when used

A short, crisp scroll that flares with force when invoked, granting a momentary boost to defense.

casts Shield (1st level) — grants +5 to AC against a triggering attack

A shimmering scroll that, when read, bathes creatures in harmless luminescence, negating invisibility and granting advantage on attacks.

casts Faerie Fire (1st level); outlines creatures in light

A weathered scroll that can billow a thick cloud — useful for making a quick escape or hiding cargo transfers.

casts Fog Cloud (1st level); cloud persists as per spell

A pricey scroll favored by captains and smugglers for quick escapes — it shimmers like moonlight on waves.

casts Misty Step (2nd level) — brief teleport up to 30 feet

A finely inked scroll that hums faintly with divinatory power, used to locate a known object if it is within range.

Shop Atmosphere

Elowen talks to the scrolls as if they were old friends and will recommend a scroll based on the buyer's best story. The shop smells of salt, ink, and lemon; a gull named Keri roosts on the roof and is tolerated inside. She offers a song-for-discount: tell a true tale of the sea and receive 1 sp off purchases under 10 gp or 5 gp off scrolls of 75 gp or more. Elowen refuses to sell scrying-related scrolls to obvious cutpurses or people who can't name a port they've visited.
