Peddlers by the dozens swooped down on City Hall, demanding a license so they could sell their wares from the sidewalks, 1935. Mayor LaGuardia wanted to put a stop to street vendors entirely. A police detail kept the pushcart men confined to Park Row and Mail Street. "Demanding rights to the city's streets," representatives of a Brooklyn organization marched in the demonstration around City Hall Park. One of the signs reads "Shall we go out and steal?"
"...it's a long walk to the bazaar, better head off now if we are to make it by summer solstice..."
--------
finally finished the nomad's clothes & packed its wares for the bird-people pilgrimage. sorry for the back to back posts on this, i am actually packing up and moving myself, so just need tidy up some ends as things have to go into storage until i get to the new place.
here's the nomad on top of my drawer
it will have "its own place" soon, hopefully!
thank you for sticking around, we're back to normal posts after this (illustrations/models).
One of my absolute favourite tropes in fantasy is the mysterious shop or peddler that wanders into the story with a bag, cart, or building full of strange, magical and potentially cursed wares, makes some deals or sells some items, and then promptly vanishes again. The little shop that wasn’t there yesterday and won’t be there tomorrow, the junk peddler or lightning-rod salesman that appears at a crossroads just when the protagonist needs or wants something. And it’s all junk, or it all looks like junk, but it all looks weird and fascinating too, and there’s the odd piece of something very magical or worldshaking in there. Or maybe just something very personal, that this random stranger should never have been able to get a hold of …
And then you think about all of D&D’s myriad magic items, especially the low-level ones that are cool and interesting but maybe not entirely useful. Or you have a read of things like the Trinkets Table from the PHB, and all the strange and mysterious and curiously specific objects that all clearly have a story behind them. And maybe you picture a peddler, a strange and unusual sort of person, just … wandering up to the party and maybe giving them a bit of a browse. Through some junk, some mildly interesting magical bric-a-brac, possibly some quest hooks … and maybe, once in a blue moon, something a bit more powerful. A diamond in the rough.
And maybe, on occasion, the peddler might have their own secrets. Maybe they’re the devil in disguise. Or a fey. Or a dragon. Or someone’s long-lost parent or sibling. You never know.
So. Have some options for creating a wandering magical junk salesperson for your players to encounter:
Peddler’s Appearance
d6 Appearance
1 A scrawny human in a ridiculously oversized ragged overcoat who shiftily produces their wares from various pockets of said overcoat.
2 A flamboyant elf in pink and gold who produces each item with a flourish from a golden knapsack, as though waiting for applause each time.
3 A grinning, gap-toothed gnome who plucks their wares one by one from apparent thin air, wiggling their fingers gleefully.
4 A dwarf the approximate size, shape and colour of a small boulder, who dourly pulls their items from a brown duffle bag the same height as they are.
5 A serene tortle who makes a production of pulling first a broad yellow blanket to sit on, then a tea set, before finally their wares, from their shell.
6 A stern-faced dragonborn who lays out their wares on a little wooden trestle table as though they’re laying down the final hand in a high-stakes card game, glaring the whole time.
The peddler has roughly 10 to 11 items on them at any time, in the following proportions:
Peddler’s Wares
Amount Wares
5 Various strange items and junk. Roll five times on the Trinkets table in the PHB, or choose your favourites for flavour or as plot hooks.
3 Common magic items.
2 Uncommon magic items.
1 (optional) Item of any rarity above uncommon, from rare to legendary.
The caveat is, the peddler (apparently) has absolutely no idea what any of their wares are, and is therefore wildly idiosyncratic in their pricing. They will demand outrageous prices for apparent junk, yet happily accept 100 gold for valuable magical items. They fancy themselves a fine salesperson, so are willing and eager to haggle, and may accept trade in kind from players with interesting items to put on the table (‘interesting’ need not mean ‘valuable’ either). They cannot describe their wares to their customers beyond physical appearances and any other impressions they may have gained from the items. If asked where they acquired their wares, they may variously demure, prevaricate, or give wild and fantastical tales of adventure and skullduggery (DM’s choice).
And perhaps the peddler might secretly be more than they appear. If you’d like them to be of story importance, roll on the table below, choose your favourite, or come up with your own campaign-appropriate secret:
Peddler’s Secret
d6 Secret
1 The peddler is a gold dragon in disguise, trying to steer the party gently in a certain direction, or to empower them for trials it knows they’re soon to face. This peddler may hint as to items’ true natures more strongly, and might have a very powerful item that they’re willing to part with for astonishingly cheap.
2 The peddler is an archfey or copper dragon or a trickster god, sowing seeds of magic and chaos across the world, mostly for fun and its own amusement. This peddler will keep absolutely mum or playfully mislead buyers, and might have some of the more fun-but-questionably-useful items.
3 The peddler is a hag or fiend in disguise, spreading small evils and horrors, or creating a false sense of security in its customers. This peddler might have more spooky or cursed items among their wares.
4 The peddler is an undercover archmage or lich, selling some of their random magical junk while secretly trying to steer adventurers towards a dungeon or object they’re interested in. This peddler may have a map or rumour of a nearby location to investigate.
5 The peddler is someone a member of the party thought long dead or vanished, trying to watch over them from afar. This peddler might have an object a party member recognises among their trinkets.
6 The peddler is a member of a cult, trying to spread tainted objects that carry the mental influence of their patron out into the world. This peddler might have quite useful items, but will always do their best to also get the party to purchase some innocuous-but-tainted object, or perhaps have odd prices and give the party ‘change’ in strange, tarnished coins.
(If anyone recognised the influences of Disney’s Aladdin, Disney’s Hercules, Something Wicked This Way Comes, Needful Things, pretty much every devil-disguised-as-a-saleperson story, and, randomly, Seraphim Falls, in this, congratulations! I love this trope …)

Trump ally Mike Lindell of MyPillow pushes martial law at White House | Donald Trump | The Guardian
My Pillow founder and Trump supporter Mike Lindell was photographed entering the West Wing of the White House on Friday, carrying notes which seemed to advocate the imposition of martial law.
Donald Trump will be replaced as president in five days’ time, by Joe Biden. Trump continues to baselessly claim his election defeat by the Democrat was the result of electoral fraud.
The president has now said he disavows the violence he incited at the US Capitol last week when he urged a mob of his supporters to march on the building. The resulting deadly attack on the Capitol led to his second impeachment.
Amid proliferating reports of plots to kidnap and kill lawmakers, and with further demonstrations by Trump supporters reportedly planned around inauguration day, Trump remains at the White House unable to use social media and apparently estranged from many of his closest advisers.
Lindell has risen to prominence among allies urging the president on in his attempts to deny reality. On his Facebook page on Friday, the mustachioed seller of sleep aids wrote: “Keep the faith everyone! We will have our president Donald Trump 4 more years!’
Later a Washington Post photographer caught images of Lindell in which parts of notes he carried were visible. Among visible text were the words “Insurrection Act now as a result of the assault on the”, “martial law if necessary” and “Move Kash Patel to CIA Acting”.
The notes also referred to Sidney Powell, an attorney and conspiracy theorist involved in Trump campaign lawsuits meant to overturn election results in battleground states, almost all of which have been unsuccessful. ...
I have a question. Why TF is a pillow peddler feeding the preznit national policy?!
