Scribe Supplies, exterior

Scribe Supplies is a shop in the Imperial City Market District that sells books, scrolls, and writing supplies. It is located in the northeastern corner of the district, near the watch tower.

Inside the shop

The proprietor, Brenard Gaussian, has 600 gold, a Mercantile skill of 30, and buys and sells books, scrolls, and miscellaneous items.

The shop is large and well-lit; it smells of parchment, paint, and old leather. The walls are lined with racks and bookshelves holding books, scrolls, canvases, paint supplies, and parchment; two counters hold even more items on display. A set of stairs leads up to Brenard's private quarters, and a door under the stairs goes down to the basement.

Brenard lives above his shop in a medium-sized apartment. Half of the room is taken up with a small area for painting and a table where he does scribing; the middle part of the room is his dining area (a trestle table and food cupboard), and the back third is his sleeping area.

The basement is crowded with boxes, crates, barrels, and more racks, which hold supplies for the shop as well as random junk.
