A jet-steel blade runed with chalked sigils. It feels impossibly balanced and hums faintly when drawn.

Atk Grants +3 to attack and damage rolls when wielded

A long, blackened blade whose fuller runs with veins of soft orange light when stoked.

Atk When activated, the blade sheds flames and deals an extra fire damage on hit

A greatsword cold to the touch, its edge like chipped midnight ice.

Atk Deals extra cold damage on hit; while drawn it suppresses ambient heat and can extinguish nonmagical flames

A razor-bright longsword with an unnerving, almost clinical edge; scholars whisper of its finality.

Atk On a natural 20 the blade severs the head of a creature with a head (DM adjudicates)

A blade whose hilt is braided with silvered letters of oathwork; it thrums with holy purpose when held by the sworn.

Atk Radiant bursts against fiends and undead; grants nearby allied paladins resistance to charm and a bonus to saving throws

A longbow of dark wood, inlaid with a single silver quill; its string sings like whispered promises.

Atk When an oath is sworn against a target the bow deals additional damage and seeks to fulfill the vow

A slim, night-inked blade whose pommel sometimes ticks as if holding a small heartbeat of fortune.

Atk Once per day grants reroll of an attack, save, or check; retains mysterious aura

A heavy edge honed to surgical perfection, its title whispered by veteran duelists.

Atk On a critical hit deals extra brutal effects and can lop off a limb on a high roll

A sword etched with tally marks and doctrines of balance; it seems to bargain with each strike.

Atk Can transfer a portion of its attack bonus to grant a temporary bonus to the wielder's AC

A neat, bookish short sword balanced as if it might be used to point at marginalia.

Atk When commanded the sword can fight independently for a short duration

A narrow dagger with a reservoir for a green tincture; the tip smells faintly of ink and rue.

Atk Once per day can coat its blade with venom to poison a struck target

A blade of pale, inner-light with an ivory grip; its glow reads like a marginal note about dawn.

Atk Deals radiant damage in place of normal slashing; extra radiant bonus to undead

A long, elegant longsword hand-forged, perfect for dueling and study-of-form.

Superior edge and balance; treated to resist corrosion

A rapier filigreed with ink-still flourishes that hums when arguments are made or riddles posed.

Atk While attuned grants +3 to Investigation or History checks when using the blade as a tool; once per short rest inflicts extra psychic damage

A long, ink-black sabre whose spine is inlaid with a thin reservoir of shadow-sheen ink.

Atk Spend 1 charge to cast a 15-foot silencing field centered on struck target (short, suppresses sound); deals + necrotic on hit

A warhammer bound with marginalia of ancient epigrams; it feels heavier for reasons of rhetoric.

Atk On hit deals + necrotic; 3 times per day can expend an action to strike and deal + necrotic (save or half)

A tiny shiv disguised as a scholar's quill; fine enough to sign treaties and slip throats.

Atk Grants advantage on skill checks involving manuscripts and marginalia; can spend 1 charge to reroll a failed History or Investigation check (3 charges, regains 1 at dawn)

A heavy crossbow blackened with lacquer and titled in a language of footnotes; it hums when loaded.

Atk Bolts carry shadow-tinged force: + psychic vs constructs and undead; spend charge to add a banishing push effect (forced movement)

A thin, almost calligraphic short sword prized by nocturnal scholars who duel with wit as much as steel.

Atk On a single strike per long rest the blade can deal + shadow damage and impose disadvantage on the target's next insight check
Miscellaneous2

A slender quiver-wrapped bundle of twenty precision arrows, fletched from raven-feather substitutes.

A custom leather-bound quiver lined in oiled parchment to prevent rattle and inscription of the owner's motto.

Miscellaneous1

A day of skilled smithwork to reprofile a blade, restore balance, or re-temper a dull edge.

Shop Atmosphere

The shop smells of black tea, oiled leather, and iron filings. Shelves are stacked with leather-bound journals of weapon designs, annotated margins in multiple hands. The smith insists customers sign a small receipt in an ink made from ground iron, then dips a finger in the same ink and stamps the client's palm with a tiny sigil. A cat made of braided wire named 'Marginalia' curls on the counter and will attempt to hide a small coin if ignored.
