The Wandering Wand
The Wandering Wand (Magic Shop & Enchanted Trinkets)
- Owner: Lillan Evermere (Human, NG) – A warm and knowledgeable shopkeeper with a passion for practical magic and a talent for making even the most nervous apprentice feel at ease.
- Familiar: Arlo, a box tortoise shell that shimmers faintly under candlelight. Despite his slow movements, he has an uncanny ability to "wander" when no one is looking, often found in unexpected places around the shop.
Description:
Nestled within the Third Tier of Anbaerin, The Wandering Wand is a cozy and welcoming magic shop, filled with shelves of carefully labeled reagents, softly glowing potions, spell scrolls, and enchanted curiosities. The shop has a quaint, well-worn charm, with a ceiling hung arcane lights that give off a soft glow and a counter covered in half-scribed spell scrolls. Despite its humble size, the shop is surprisingly well-stocked, offering both common magical goods and the occasional rare find at fair prices.
Lillan is known for her honest dealings, and many young wizards and spellcasters make their first real magical purchases here, earning her a reputation as a trusted mentor-figure within the arcane community. She has connections to several arcane institutions within Anbaerin, occasionally taking commissions to recharge wands or restore faded enchantments.
Shop Atmosphere & Unique Features:
- Soft, hanging lights illuminate the shop without casting harsh shadows.
- A chalkboard menu near the entrance lists current stock and newly available items.
- Arlo, the wandering box tortoise, moves mysteriously throughout the shop, often found resting atop rare books or inside display cases he shouldn’t be able to reach.
- A side room serves as a small consultation area, where Lillan discusses her commissions based options.
