4

Pocket (dimension) sand: a small bag of sand that is enchanted to open a doorway to a pocket dimension. To use, scatter the sand on a surface of your choosing, and utter the command word (shashasha!). A doorway equal to the space the sand covers (no greater than 10x10 feet) opens for 1d6 minutes. The sand falls into the pocket dimension on use and is consumed. There is enough sand to cover a 10x10 foot space, or 4 separate 5x5 foot spaces. If used multiple times, each doorway leads to the same pocket dimension.

5

8 stones in a small leather pouch. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, black. Each casts a spell at its base level. The stones have qualities which show the amount of times they can be used, 'perfect' =3 uses, 'crazed' =2 uses, 'cracked' =1 use. Once the final use is expended the stone shatters into fine dust. To use a stone, throw it at the target.

11

Diamond Blade (+1): A blade made of diamonds. The tang of the blade is silver, its pommel diamond as well. It reflects and refracts light and magic mysteriously. If on an attack if you were to add acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison, thunder, necrotic or radiant damage to your weapon damage dice, roll a 1d8, that added weapon damage dice type is changed to (1- Acid, 2- Cold, 3- Fire, 4- Lightning, 5- Poison, 6- Thunder, 7 - necrotic, 8- radiant).

12

Sphere of Great Divination: A black obsidian crystal sphere filled with a dark inky fluid. Inside the sphere is a small white dodecahedron with black text on each of its faces. The sphere gives off a faint divination aura. As an Action, it may be shaken and the resulting text on the dodeceahedron may be read as it floats to the top of the sphere. Treat as the spell "Augury", but may only be used once per day, and has a 1d4 chance on use to give a random result or one the DM chooses.

13

An advanced innovation in the new field of gunsmithing- the Apache Revolver. Treat as a revolver (if you're using 5e, the rules are on page 268 of the Dungeon Master's Guide) with a built-in knife and brass knuckles. Probably not called the 'Apache' revolver unless that's a place in your setting. And yes, it's not a very practical weapon, but it seems to be selling fast.

14

An unremarkable-looking prayer candle. A precise wax-shaping technique has been used to hide magic sigils inside the body of the candle, such that when the wick is burnt it generates a field from which no sound can escape in a 12-ft radius. The candle burns out faster than normal, though, usually in about 10 minutes. It'll simply look like you and whoever else you're meeting with are praying silently, provided you aren't gesticulating at each other.

15

A phial of aboleth mucus.

16

A small ivory replica of a king's crown. Its owner is able to participate in fractal chess, a version of the popular board game with no set number of players and an incomprehensibly large playing board. Players can communicate with each other, regardless of physical or planar distance, but can only do so when they make a turn, so messages by way of fractal chess are slow. There is only a single game going on, which started with its invention. There hasn't been a winner for thousands of years, but there are plenty of losers.

17

A petrified toad. When held in the cusp of one's palm for a minute, the toad's body warms up and comes back to life. Whoever did so can command it to go to a location and stay there for up to 12 hours. Afterwards, it attempts to travel back to its user. The user cups the toad again for a minute until it petrifies, and they gain access to the toad's recent memories.

18

A portable peephole fashioned like a circle of steel, about half as large as a human fist. The corrugated end is placed to the surface of a solid object, then rotated clockwise, causing it to sink into the surface. This creates a purely visual hole (it's a visual illusion, rather than an actual aperture) all the way through to the other end of the object. To remove, one would grasp the blunted tines on the outward-facing end and rotate counter-clockwise.

19

The services of a band of mercenary orcs.

20

Prankster's gold, a liquid that turns into 100gp in recently minted gold coins for 24 hours after being poured out of the vial, before turning into an odorless gas. The vials are sold both individually and in bulk, and in different sizes. Understandably no one in this marketplace accepts gold coins as a form of tender.

21

A mirror or lens that can be used to see invisible things, but has horrible glare when exposed to most light sources.

22

Counterfeits of prestigious wines, spirits, cheeses, and the like. Well, surely they're counterfeits- otherwise there wouldn't be so much, sold at such discount prices.

23

A 'Calinic breed' cat. Striped purplish, it can sense poison, and prefers to eat poisoned food, even if it is full. Luckily the cat seems to be immune to poisons, toxins, acids, and venoms. It will also eat oozes and slimes. Unfortunately, it otherwise behaves like a normal cat; there's very few people who want to take care of a cat and simultaneously find a Calinic's abilities useful at this market, so the seller is probably offering the cat at a lowered price.

24

The deed to a tavern, hostel, or other innocuous city building; it has a large, clean basement with hidden side rooms, perfect for a secret laboratory, meeting room, vault, torture chamber, or what-have-you.

25

A scroll containing the secrets to finding and operating a magically hidden cavern base in the mountains.

26

Maps of secret passageways in the underbelly of old cities or castles, sold next to maps of recorded passageways between the Underdark and the surface world. They have some warning symbols on them, but they probably don't account for every danger. The maps are unreadable to those who haven't purchased them.

27

A writ granting one favor, within reason, from a criminal syndicate. Your payment helps keep them in business. The write can be magically tracked by them.

28

A magical vellum parchment that can be wrapped around a limb to make it look like a wooden prosthetic, or around a weapon to make it look like an innocuous object of similar size and proportions.

29

Binary poisons. Each is sold as a pair of dropper jars. Anyone who consumes an effective dosage of the first and second jars' contents within 36 hours of each other suffers the effects of the full, original poison or drug. There are multiple different poisons and drugs being sold in this fashion.

30

Dossiers of blackmail on city officials that magically update as more blackmail becomes known to the criminal underworld. The organizations that sell these magic envelopes censor information on the bribes they perform.

31

A trained mimic.

34

A dagger that always misses the target. Excellent for screwing over that special someone.

35

The Tainted-Love Necklace: A silver necklace with a purple gem on it. Put one drop of your blood on the gem. Anyone who wears this necklace will be permanently charmed by you until they take it off. Wearing the necklace long-term causes the wearer to become greatly addicted to being charmed (to the giver specifically but also to charm spells in general). VERY illegal; punishment is life in jail in Neverwinter.

36

A fake-lactery (aka: A Fool's Phylactery). If you have the item on you (which is the size of your fist) and drop to 0 hp, your soul goes into the device and stays there for one long rest. Then you return into your body with 1 hp and 2 levels of exhaustion. The item breaks after.

37

Back-water Love potions: Very effective (DC 15 wisdom save) and lasts for 1 week. The drinker falls head-over-heels (or heels-over-head if you'd prefer) in love with whoever gave them the drink. But there's 10% chance of the drinker becomes obsessive, stalker-ish, even violent towards other potential suitors. If this occurs, the drinker will stay this way for a month instead of a week.

38

A mirror that, when hung in a room, lets you see through door and walls in the reflection.

39

A kobold skull that grants you luck (1 re-roll of a d20 once per day). Being around kobolds will cause them to attack you en mass and with great rage.

40

A small orb you keep in your pocket. It gently buzzes when someone talks about you with hatred or malicious intent (provided you're within 250 feet of them).

41

Torture Wine: Tastes like delicious fine wine. After a long rest, the user becomes overwhelmed with pain is unable to move or take any actions for 24 hours. During this time, they must make a wisdom save (DC 15) or they will be emotionally scarred from the the horrible experience (-1 to charisma permanently)

42

Doses of "Juiblex,": Phials of a viscous black liquid that causes catatonic euphoria and is extremely hazardous to one's health.

43

A Clockwork Thing you Don't Know what it does: It's got sort of a brassy part and a springy part, and a glass tube, and the merchant is very insistent you keep it on the hush-hush that he's selling it.

44

Cutting of Carnivorous living plants: Just think, planted in the right soil you could have your very own assassin vine in your garden. That'll chase the crows out.

45

A dark scrying glass: Only shows you things you're better off not seeing. This one came to the merchant after the previous owner looked in and fell into a suicidal depression.

46

A Spherical puzzle box: Gives off a malevolent aura and certainly does not pass a "Detect Evil," check. The Merchant assures you that it can be opened, but asks that you please not try it until you are well away from them.

47

Elemental Spheres: Handheld glass spheres designed to be thrown and shattered to release the trapped (and quite upset about it) elemental inside. Their manufacture was officially prohibited after a number of grisly accidents, but there is always a market for an easily concealed destructive item.

48

Lembas-style bread: An off brand Elvish baked good made by off-brand elves. They might just be goblins actually. Fairly sustaining, but tastes foul, as if it's mostly rancid suet.

49

A perfectly ordinary apple: It's the only thing at this old woman's stall, but you don't quite trust it.

50

A skull who produces a constant flow of ash from its sockets; produces one pound of ash per minute.

51

A caged black cat, whom has an aura of dark energy; all creatures who come close to the cat have their life force sapped by the cat's aura.

52

A glove that allows you to rewrite an entire document in an instant when you touch it with the glove.

53

A cursed jumpsuit; the jumpsuit cannot be removed, and if the wearer tries to perform any sort of crime it has that crime done to itself. For instance, if one wearing the jumpsuit tried to commit arson, their hair would be set on fire; if they tried to steal from someone, an object of theirs would disappear and reappear in someone else's possession, et cetera.

54

Bugbear saliva: when applied to the skin, makes the user take 2d4 damage but makes them resistant to fire, thunder, or acid damage for 1d6 hours.

65

The Old Flute: A strange, yet beautifully carved wooden flute. When played, it rouses the blood of allies and strikes a primal fear into the hearts of foes. When played under a Hunter's Moon, it will summon the Wild Hunt.

66

The Eldritch Key: Sold by a rather haggard and nervous looking ex-thief. She claims that the key can open any lock even ones that are magically protected. However what she doesn't tell you, is that the more you use it, the more you see a shambling abomination, crawling out of the dark, in the corner of your eye. Naturally nothing is there when you look. Maybe.

67

The Two-Faced Shield - A large metal shield with the image of two screaming faces opposing one another. While equipped, when damage is successfully blocked the shield casts Cutting Words on the attacker. While equipped, when the user takes damage the shield casts Cutting Words on the user.

68

A kabuki style demon mask. It gives the user advantage on intimidation checks, but disadvantage on persuasion checks, and any investigation or perception check that relies on vision, as the eye slits are too small (that could be solved with spending time to file the eye holes larger). You could either curse it, or have some trickster line the inside of the mask with sovereign glue.

69

Unicorn Horn. They say it's a cure-all, but, you'd have to be a real bastard to use it.

70

A baby grimlock. Blind, mewling, and defenseless. Could possibly be raised to be a servant of some kind.

71

89

90

The book of prayers of a priest violently killed. It is said to keep the ghosts away, but surely it stinks worse every day that passes.
