Weapons3

A well-balanced iron dagger with a slightly cold touch. Useful for close work and as a basic sidearm.

A short, razor-edged blade forged for agility. Good for beginners and rogues.

A solid longsword, charcoal-darkened from the forge. Balanced for both cutting and thrusting.

Armor2

A supple leather cuirass hardened and dyed an ashen gray. Quiet to wear and easy to move in.

AC +11

A round iron shield, rimed with soot. It looks like it has been used to block more than steel.

AC +2
Miscellaneous2

A full set of blacksmithing tools, kept in a leather roll. Essential for making and repairing gear.

Proficiency with smith's tools allows repair and crafting checks; useful for custom orders.

A fist-sized coal that smolders with a cool blue ember and never cools. It feels slightly warm to the touch.

Functions as a never-ending tinderbox and provides enough heat to light torches and warm a small area. Does not produce large flames.
Potions1

A small vial with a reddish, viscous liquid that glows faintly. Commonly used to patch wounds after fights.

Heal 7 HPConsumable. Heals immediately when drunk.
Miscellaneous1

A dagger forged from a faintly translucent metal that seems to drink in light. It emits soft, almost inaudible whispers at night.

Once per short rest as a bonus action, the wielder can cause the blade to hum and deal an extra psychic damage on a hit.
Miscellaneous1

A heavy set of tongs treated in a ritual that leaves faint ember marks on cold metal. The shopkeeper cherishes them.

When used with smith's tools, grants a bonus to one Smith's Tools check once per day (recharges at dawn).
Miscellaneous1

A pair of iron horseshoes, dark and rubbed with salt. They seem to drink sound, leaving a faint trail of silence.

Once per long rest the mounted creature can move silently for up to 1 hour (advantage on Stealth checks to move quietly while mounted during that time).
Miscellaneous1

A short blade whose edge runs with faint veins of red metal. When heated it whispers like distant coal fires.

Once per day you can ignite the blade as a bonus action; while ignited the blade deals +1 fire damage on hit for up to 1 minute. The ignition leaves no lasting burn on the blade.

Shop Atmosphere

The shop sits in perpetual dim light and smells of ash and ozone. At night the anvils sometimes ring with no hammer, and faint whispers echo between the rafters. The blacksmith hums lullabies in a language no one recognizes and often leaves a single cold coal on the counter as payment for gossip.
