52 Witchcraft An old woman with silvered hair hums quietly to herself, wielding a mortar and pestle with weathered hands. As she grinds an admixture of herbs into a fine powder, a black iron cauldron behind her begins to boil, waiting to receive the contents of her mortar. Leather-bound book in hand, a male gnome with halfmoon spectacles and ebony hair reads on, idly stroking a black cat resting in his lap with his other hand. A cup of tea sits beside him on a small table, its steam and floral scent seemingly filling his shop. A staple both in the small towns of the hinterlands and in forgotten alcoves of large cities, practitioners of witchcraft often have wares to sell, to those interested in their arts. Though not as focused on one field as purveyors of drinks, foodstuffs, potions, or other magical wares, merchants in the field of witchcraft dabble wherever their interests lie, and as such have a much more generalized selection of wares.

54 Legendary Merchants The following merchants are found on the Legendary Merchants table. Any Stronghold ability that would allow you to select a merchant cannot be used to select a legendary merchant. Your DM may also decide for you to encounter a legendary merchant under other circumstances, at their discretion. Astral Traveler An old magus with a trailing grey beard sits at a crossroads, smoke curling from a long-stemmed pipe. He watches passers-by with eyes bluer than blue, sparkling with a deep, inner magic. Those that look closely with the right kind of sight can see subtle tears in reality around him, a distortion of light and being marking him as here, yet not. The magus ignores questions about his presence, answering them only by blowing a perfect cube of pipe-smoke. A gnome with hair like iron, held in a tight bun by two sharp hairpins, distractedly scrawls in a tome. Most avoid her corner table at the local tavern, though none say why. She periodically checks an odd compass-like device, making appreciative noises and scribbling furiously when its needle points in certain directions. An astral traveler has seen more than most beings will in several lifetimes. They have tasted pains and delights belonging to realities far removed from the Prime Material, and have set foot where both celestials and fiends fear to find themselves. Naturally, an astral traveler has come across plenty of souvenirs in their journeying, and are willing to part with a few of them for the right amount of coin.

56 Enchantments Clothed in a cowl and long, flowing robes, a female human focuses her will, bending innate magic around her and focusing it into a single, cohesive thought-form. Glowing placidly, the thought-form floats before her, ready to be bound into a weapon, empowering it permanently with a figment of her magical will. As she works, a cluster of astounded village children and skeptical elders crowd around her roadside stall, but the human is either deep in thought or pretending not to notice. A scruffy male gnome, beard and hair frizzed out in every direction, attends with his set of tinker’s tools to a battle axe laid out before him. His immense scientific mind calculates the energy flow intrinsic to the powerful weapon, and devises the particular method required for generating a self-sustaining magical current within it. Wiring up the axe to an etheric battery of his own design, the gnome activates it, and the axe begins to hum with a distinctly magical vibration. Legendary merchants that deal in enchantments are by definition a rarity, but a welcome sight in any town they visit. Each merchant has a different method of imbuing the mundane with the magical, but the end result is the same: enhanced weapons, armor, or other items that grant specialized magical abilities. Magical Enchantment. Any nonmagical or alreadymagical item can be enchanted by this merchant, provided that it is small enough to be easily carried or used by a Medium or smaller creature. Enchanting an item with this merchant requires selecting an existing item a character has on their person, paying the cost associated on the merchant’s inventory table, and either rolling for or selecting the proper enchantment, as the case may be. Any specific item can only be the subject of one enchantment of each quality (minor, major, legendary) from this merchant, and an item with an enchantment applied becomes magical (if it was not so already). Enchanting a single item with an enchantment of the same quality twice causes the first enchantment to be overwritten by the second. Enchantments marked with an (a) cause the enchanted item to require attunement before its properties can be used. If a previously-magical item already requiring attunement receives one of these marked enchantments, it is still only necessary to attune to it once. A mundane item affected by a minor enchantment is considered a common magic item. If affected by a major enchantment it is considered an uncommon magic item, or a rare magic item if it is affected by a legendary enchantment. The rarity of an already-magical item is unaffected by a minor enchantment, but improves by one level (i.e. from common to uncommon) when affected by a major enchantment, or by two levels (uncommon to very rare) if the subject of a legendary enchantment. An item’s rarity cannot exceed legendary in this way.

58 Fey Bargains Sitting on a worn stump in a clear grove, a faun with large, pronounced, pronged horns plays an ephemeral tune on a hollow wooden pipe. In this place, sacred to the fey, the faun waits for the occasional adventurous wanderer, hunter, or forager delving too deep into the woods. The faun has wares he would trade, and many simple favors he would ask. Wearing a cloak of leaves that sweeps the ground as she walks, a female eladrin has a motley collection of wares spread wide across her wooden tabletop at a local market. She smiles at all who approach, and is quick to inform those who visit of her no-currency policy. It is only when her customers are deep into negotiations that her eyes sparkle with a hidden malice, and those bartering may begin to suspect she is more than she seems. The fey are widely known for their interest in bargaining with mortals, but are not necessarily inclined to reveal themselves as denizens of the Feywild unless such suits their purpose. Geas. Holding little interest in coin, the fey prefer to trade in favors, sealed by a variation of the geas spell, to compel their customers to act in certain ways. As such, fey bargains have no currency cost, but have an associated price in a minor, major, or legendary geas, rolled randomly on the following Geas tables. If a geas would not apply for whatever reason, reroll until you receive a geas that does. A geas must be known by the customer before it is agreed upon and, though the fey do not lie, they may attempt to egregiously mislead those with whom they deal. Fey merchants will only sell one item to each of their customers, considering overburdening their customers with geases to be impractical.

Unlike the spell in the Player’s Handbook, the geas this merchant uses is much more powerful, a magic as old as song and story, and cannot be broken easily. At your DM’s discretion, a wish spell may be able to break a geas from this merchant, but no lesser magic will work. Divine intervention, or a quest from this merchant or a fey rival of the merchant may be able to undo such a geas, but such things are never simple, and even undone a geas’ effects may still linger. Regardless of whether or not the geas is still in effect, a character that bargains with this merchant will likely be a subject of the merchant’s interest for many years to come.

60 Magic Items Stroking the end of his long, white, curled beard, a gnome wearing a pointy hat sits at the open back end of his covered cart. Painted above him is a rough wooden sign advertising his wheeled shop. Behind him pulses the telltale thrum of magic, cascading gently off of the items behind him in the wagon. Placing a gentle hand upon a silver ring, a high elf concentrates her magical energies on the runed circle in which the ring resides. Sprinkling residuum around the edges, the circle suddenly ignites in a bright flash of arcane power, leaving her shop smelling faintly of ozone. Removing her hand, she smiles as she observes the ring, now shimmering and twinkling with a subtle eldritch resonance. A rarity in many worlds, merchants with this specialty are often highly sought after. Magic items are always hard to make, and few know the arcane secrets behind their creation. Those who craft magic items often find their arrival in a town to be a momentous occasion, that can change the shape of the town and its people for lifetimes to come.

62 Magical Creatures A jovial male human, old and wizened, wears a roped turban and pipes a jaunty tune in the far corner of an open marketplace. Before him dances a lithe, golden flying serpent, which twists and coils in response to the man’s music. Sitting at the open end of her wagon, a female copperscaled dragonborn watches the crowds pass her by. She waits patiently, attempting not to attract too much or too little notice, as her cargo of vibrantly-glimmering dragon eggs shimmers gently in the covered wagon’s soft light. Magical beasts are, by their nature, hard to control or tame, and only a select few individuals have the ability to coax such creatures into following and listening to them. Of these, fewer still have the predilection to sell such creatures, but merchants of magical creatures are highly sought-after wherever they may find themselves. Sold creatures are usually tame, but may not be, if marked otherwise. Untamed magical creatures use the rules presented with the Animals merchant on page 12, and in the “Taming the Untamed” sidebar on page 13 of this supplement.

64 Necromancy Seated atop a large burial mound, a young male human wears a skeletal mask with his hair tied back. Every night finds him here, waiting for either the call of the spirits, or for interested customers to seek his wares. After slumbering in near-death for centuries, a lich awoke to find a city had been built on top of her ancient dungeon. Rather than vow revenge against the living, however, the lich was of a more practical mind, building her dungeon into a shop for all comers, to finance the dread experiments that are no doubt taking place below. The relationship between necromancers and wider society is often troubled, at best, but that doesn’t stop an enterprising few from building a niche market among the grave-minded. Both the dead and the living have needs, after all, and the exchange of coin facilitates everyone’s needs being met. Depending on location and the area’s dominant moral set, the exchange of necromantic goods and services may be illegal, merely frowned upon, or a normal and accepted part of everyday life.

66 Needful Things A handsome young high elf stands amongst his wares in a brand-new stall, recently opened within the marketplace. Though new to town, he has already acquired a reputation for outlandish deals, coupled with strange requests, and only the most perceptive among the locals have noticed a hint of brimstone to the incense that burns within his shop. Seated on a stool at a crossroads, an impeccably dressed gentleman holds a wooden case in his lap. Surprisingly, its contents always seem to be exactly what his customers desire, and he’s more than willing to part with it for a fair price, and the smallest of favors. The fiends of the Nine Hells are no strangers to business, and occasionally take part in the financial dealings of the mortal world to spread discord and their own influence. Money, however, is not an object to these disguised merchants from down below, and they will gladly offer a discount if the purchaser agrees to perform a favor or two that will further their many agendas.

A Needful Things legendary merchant always inherently knows the alignment of those they deal with, and this merchant operates differently depending on the moral inclinations of their current customer. Selling Your Soul. The highest prize a Needful Things merchant can hope for is a character’s soul, particularly a soul belonging to an otherwise good (or even neutral) character. This merchant is willing to trade any item for a character’s soul at no additional cost, assuming the character does not have any other external claims on their soul. Doing so places the character under the effects of a permanent dominate person spell cast by the merchant without concentration, which the merchant typically utilizes sparingly but to great effect. This can only be broken by a wish spell or divine intervention, but doing so causes the free item to disappear, returning to the merchant. Inconsequential Favors. A soul is a high price to pay, and this merchant recognizes that some souls may not be acquired without adequate temptation beforehand. Good and neutral characters will find this merchant is willing to offer discounts in return for inconsequential favors, rolled at random on the associated table. Each favor successfully performed (the merchant inherently knows if a favor was completed) decreases the price of a chosen item by half. Favors are cumulative: a single favor reduces an item to 1/2 price, two favors reduce it to 1/4 price, and three favors reduce the item to 1/8 price. The merchant will accept no more than three favors at a time, and will only discount a single item this way each time they are encountered. Needless to say, these favors all have dire consequences, which may not be readily apparent to the character performing them. Upon purchasing their discounted item, the character has a sense that they released an evil into the world, but is at a loss to describe the nature of what has transpired.

68 Time-Lost Wandering a long, winding road, an armored human male with a tiny dragonling upon his shoulder clutches a small, colored rectangle of strange material, staring at it intently. Briefly he holds it aloft, waves it slowly around, and then shakes it violently before sighing and placing it in a pouch at his side. As he opens the pouch, a careful onlooker could spot a wealth of similar strange creations and contraptions, before the human quickly and carefully ties his pouch shut. Set up adjacent to an inn, a man with tossled hair and a surprisingly vivid bow-tie has a collection of odd wares spread across a ramshackle wooden table that appears inexpertly cobbled together. Behind the man lies, on its side, an oblong and smoldering blue box, into which he reaches periodically to retrieve new goods, appraising each in turn before shrugging and placing them upon his slapshod table. As some arcanists and scholars of the immaterial know, planar travel is not the only method for exploring the multiverse. Through either a quirk of reality or their own design, few denizens of a future time may stumble into the past. These individuals almost always have returning to their native time as their driving goal, and may be willing to trade away some of their foreign resources to gain the currency they need to achieve this end. Electric Torch. When activated, casts bright light in a 120-foot cone, and dim light 120 feet after that. Comes with an energy cell, and can run for 12 hours continuously before requiring the cell replaced to function. Entertainment Pad. This small, smooth rectangle has a panel that lights up and responds to touch. When activated, it can play one of 5d10 outlandish songs and contains 1d10 different types of games or distractions. Comes with an energy cell, and can run for 6 hours continuously before requiring the cell replaced to function. Jetpack. When activated as a bonus action, you fly a distance equal to 2d10 x 5 feet in a direction you choose. Unless you have a fly speed or this item is activated again immediately, you will begin to fall at the start of your next turn. Comes with an energy cell, and can be used 10 times before requiring the cell replaced to function.

It’s thus highly recommended that you use the Figuring Out Alien Technology table and associated rules on page 268 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide to illustrate this disconnect for any item labeled as “tech.” The number rating associated with tech represents the successes needed to figure out an item, and more difficult technology requires more successes. Understanding how an item works is the first step to gaining proficiency with it. To acquire proficiency, you must train with the item for 250 days, spending 1 gp on training costs per day. Refer to the Training downtime activity on page 187 of the Player’s Handbook for any further specifics.
