ASMR | The Adventurer’s Shop | Potion Apothecary & Magical Items

Ah... Welcome, brave adventurer. I wasn't expecting anyone at this hour of night. No... No, we're open. Come in. I was just finishing up a letter to an old friend. I'll put it away. Ah... Just you? Where is the rest of your party? Hmm... A nice long rest does have it's benefits. And what of you? No break for the hero? Oh! I did not see your ears. An elf. You don't really "sleep", as we call it, do you? Well... I myself spend the entire night awake, so you're in good company. Go on, close the doo

r fully. It's chilly out there. How did you make your way to my seemingly modest shack? It shows you are wise, indeed. For those who know what to look for, I know my shop is too intriguing for you to ignore. Are you looking for anything in particular? Or do you let the intrigue seek you out instead? I have one-of-a-kind trinkets, handmade potions, and goods that have been traded across lands you and I will never see. Well... that's because I serve all types of travelers, and they bring me back

items I hardly knew could even exist. Some of those adventurers have gone on to perform quite courageous feats. And some of which, well... I've never heard from again. I hope they're all right... Who knows, with what lurks beyond this humble town! You don't seem as if you're trying to place roots here, hm? Not trying to start a farm, and a family? A different life, perhaps? What?? Our town is lovely enough. You could find great peace here. A modest income, an honest job, a humble farm with chic

kens and cows and rainbow sprites. No, hm? Okay, well that's... That's always the answer. Tell me about yourself. And your party that accompanies you. Oh... Oh, wow! Well that's very lucky! Mhm. I see... An assorted bunch, indeed. Please, you must bring the half-orc you speak of by. They sound simply delightful! If I may ask, how did you all meet? Ah... In a tavern, of course. Me? What about me? So noisy! Um... Your guess is as good as mine. Only my mother had them. Has anyone ever told you yo

u're quite friendly for an elf? The many I've encountered have varied. But typically, your kind... That air of aloofness. I apologize! It makes me laugh! I find elves very easy to fluster, actually. If you know what to say. Yes! So... How old are you, then? 200? 300? More? A young one! Off to see the world, I presume? First time? Okay. I will say, your robes are quite... tattered, for an elf. Perhaps that's the first order of business then. I should have something that would fit you quite nicely

. Oh, don't be embarrassed! Battle will do that to ordinary fabric. It's not too bad. Let's see... You would look quite stylish in this shade. Not your typical color, but breathable and sturdy. And slightly flame-resistant, as I know spellcasters tend to prefer. What do you think? Not the most exciting first item for me to present, I know. But we should get the tedious purchases out of the way first. Then, the fun comes. I know a talented tailor lives not three doors down from here, if you nee

d any adjustments to it. Mm? Mmm? I'll set it aside for now. On to more interesting things. Well, if you're truly a wizard, as you say, I have certain curiosities that may intrigue you indeed. Scrolls of information I can't read myself, but I've heard what they do say. Intrigued indeed. Most wizards like the word "scroll". Before I show you any, however, give me a moment. I need to determine whether I can trust you or not. A small test. No no, no... You don't move. You don't have to do anyth

ing. Are you friend, or foe? Friend, then. Good! I enjoy sharing my magical items with those that appreciate them. These often let me know whether I'm going down the right path. Succeeding, or not, in what I aim to do. Now we can take a look at the spell scrolls I have for you. Your excitement delights me! What class of magic do you study? Oh! Now, an illusion spell might be perfect, then. I can't let you look at it too closely without paying, but you must see this scroll I traded with a very ec

centric adventurer. Another wizard, like yourself, but... Horns. Never seen anything like it. This one, here. It's been waiting for the right owner. Here... take a look. What do you think it does? Really? Well your eyes are practically sparkling! You have to learn how to have more of a serious expression to help your haggling. Ah-ah, that's all for now. Now, I... also have a robust selection of health potions. I - No reason! I just... you know... You could probably use a few of those. It's just

smart business! I know my customers. We can take a look at my potion offerings. Oh... That one caught your eye back there? Not that one. Those are too strong for you, traveler. An early lesson learned: Only take what you can handle. Now, for you, at your stage of experience, let's see... Pre-made, I have the Potion of Invisibility. Well of course you can't see it! But listen... *sloshing liquid* This will last you one hour only, so be careful. No! You don't have to disrobe to use it! Anything yo

u're carrying will be invisible as well. Thank the gods. A Potion of Heroism. *magical bubbly sounds* You'll be much harder to take down in a fight to the death. I'm not sure what kind of adventures you're going on, but it seems to be a popular one. I do - I do prefer to make the Potions of Healing to order. It's more potent that way. Plus, I can add in some more extras. For a fee. Perhaps something that will boost your intellect power momentarily. I thought so! That's usually what the wizards d

esire. Tell you what, if you order a custom, I'll throw this in. A Potion of Watchful Rest. You can give it to your party! Stop wasting your time. They'll gain the benefits of rest without actually being asleep. I make these for myself frequently. Alright! Very good! One custom Potion of Healing. We'll make that last. Now, for the half-orc, I assume they fight brutally. Would they be interested in these extra large gauntlets? They're impeccably crafted. Hand-detailed leather. Great protection fo

r someone who gets up close. They what? They're a bard?! Forgive me, then. A master of song... Then I MUST show you this. A wizard of your own caliber must immediately detect the arcane power infused in it's strings. This does not come cheap, I tell you. I believe it came from a place not of this realm. May I? *plays & hums 'Good Riddance' from Hades* Sounds pleasant, doesn't it? I'm not much of a singer. I sound more like an owlbear, sometimes. But nonetheless... Now, your fighter, then. They'r

e a monster hunter? Very good! Perhaps they can help me with this mimic I came across. No... not a book. I - I can't tell what it's saying. *feral noises* I think it wants something, but everything I offer it is rejected. I can give the monster hunter one of my petrified dragon eggs if they can translate for me. I've not known anyone be able to successfully hatch a living dragon from a petrified egg, but be my guest. It can be up to them which one they desire. I confess, I only know a little bit

about dragons. I try not to dabble too much in such dangers. But I know many adventurers who find them most fascinating. These eggs are very sturdy. They won't break. Let your monster hunter know. Now, your last member. A cleric, you say? For which God? Hmm... That means hardiness is a priority, then. May I entice them, perhaps, with an Amulet of Health? I put this kit together for a healer. This is the Amulet, of course. It is adjustable. When one wears it, it's as if your stamina boosts up to

almost maximum. An incredible feeling. I'd keep it, but if I did that with every nice item I had, I wouldn't get any new ones. And these, here, I can refill their kit. You see, I have many bandages in this chest. They may be of interest. You see, they're not just ordinary cloth, as it looks. But these are able to extract several different types of poison. Interested? Good! Now... I'm not quite sure that's enough gold. Do you have anything else to trade? Where did you get this? Earned? Traded? P

ilfered? This, too, is infused with some magic. Not incredibly powerful, but sometimes, that's more sellable. The strong items are expensive, and unwieldy for most. But this fan... Not of use to you, but perhaps another traveler. Very good. I accept. Now finally, to make your Potion of Healing. No, it should not take too much time at all. Not for me. Your welcome to watch. Although I will not explain fully what I am doing. I need to protect the trade secrets a little bit, you know? Purified wate

r. Nothing more. You'll want this diluted for ease of consumption. Trust me. Now, for your extras. This is what makes everyone keep coming back to my potions. You were interested in a little boost of intelligence, correct? Well I'm glad you asked. Perhaps you could work on your 'people person' skills. A little bit of extra wisdom never hurt anybody. Or maybe you want to be the strong one for a change. Hmm... Well alright. Tell you what, we can do two. It mixes together well. You just have to p

romise to tell your friends. Alright. We'll begin with that intelligence you ordered. Very good. And get ready to make friends at the next tavern you visit. All set. Now, we mix. Now, for the fun ones. [echoed] Potion of healing, greater healing, superior healing, supreme healing. [echoed] 2d4, [echoed] 4d4, [echoed] 8d4, [echoed] 10d4, [echoed] 20, 20, 20, 20. [echoed] With intelligence and charisma, [echoed] intelligence and charisma, [echoed] intelligence and charisma, [echoed] intelligence

and charisma. It's done. Just... I have to do this carefully. And there you are. Now, don't un-stopper it for at least 24 hours. If you try to use it before then, you will simply get very bad gas. Perfect. Pleasure doing business with you. Come back tomorrow with your comrades, I look forward to meeting them. And good luck on your adventures. I hope you have many of them. Be safe out there!
