Resource: Black Market Stalls

Since my party was in a sketchy town, I decided to include some interesting black market stalls for them to explore. Here's a list of the stalls I included:
  • Shady amulet dealer: Magic amulets for sale, but each also carries a minor curse. They are suspiciously cheap.
  • Mystery meat skewers
  • Witch selling hexes, jinxes, curses, etc
    • 2 Hex spell scrolls – 20 gp each
    • 2 Bestow Curse spell scrolls – 100 gp each
    • Remove Curse spell scroll – 150 gp
  • Forger: fake identity documents
  • Potions and poisons
    • Arrow poisons – 10 uses, arrows must be coated ahead of time. +1d6 poison damage. 100 gp
    • 2 Potions of healing – 100 gp each
    • Stolen goods: jewelry, art, coin purses
  • Seer selling blessings: player rolls 1d6
    • 1: Curse. -1 to all d20 rolls until next dawn.
    • 2-3: Nothing happens
    • 4-6: Blessing. +1 to all d20 rolls until next dawn.
  • Random magic item auction
  • Gambling games
  • Snail racing track

Let us know if you have suggestions for more black market stalls!
