The Riven Shield Shop
This shop is famous up and down the Sword Coast for its large and varied assortment of secondhand arms and armor including many famous relics of fallen or retired adventurers. The most famous items are either not for sale, or command very high prices (hundreds of gold pieces). There are, however, many serviceable, unhistoried used weapons here, from tiny daggers used by noble ladies to the heavy broadswords favored by barbarians, that are useful to anyone in need of a weapon. Scores of these sell each day.
No one is tempted to steal the more valuable pieces. It is widely known that some of the magical shields hanging from the rafter beams contain magically imprisoned monsters that can be released to fight as an ally of the shield-wearer. It is also well known that one of the items in the shop (no one is quite sure which one, and the proprietor neglects to say) is an alert, always vigilant, sentinel.
Proprietor: Delborggan the Blade runs the Riven Shield Shop. He is a grizzled, one-eyed ex-adventurer.
