A makeshift stall stands near the edge of the marketplace. It smells and looks like fresh wood, as though it was cobbled together just today. A heavily tattoed green Hardman Norn stands behind the counter, which holds several swords and a few spears. She stares at you with arms akimbo and asks, "Come to buy? If ya have, then get up here and see my wares. If not, get yer sorry a** out of here. You're in luck - I'm having a sale." You step closer and examine the swords. They all look fairly plain to you.
She picks up the sword you're looking at. "A plain sword, eh? Proper warrior's weapon, but nothing special, right?" She begins doing some fancy maneuvers with the sword, drawing patterns in the air. Suddenly, she jumps forward with an unearthly battle cry and points it at your face. The sword suddenly jumps into life and crackles with electricity.
The Hardman laughs at the expression on your face and puts the sword back on the table. It immediately turns back into the normal sword it was before. "Not bad, eh? Looks like a normal sword, acts like a normal sword, but point it at an enemy and bam, you've got power." She accentuates this remark by banging her fist on the table. "Powerful magic that sword has. Sale, so it's 25 gp. Same for all these swords." She indicates the full table with a sweep of her arm. Picking up another sword, she swings it in your face. It bursts into flame.
Putting it down, she picks up another sword and swipes it in your direction. Suddenly, it's alive with dark energy.
She taps the sword, which immediately resumes its normal appearance. "An' that spear - it's different, a bit less powerful but nevertheless good." She puts down the sword and picks up the spear.
Immediately, she disappears. There is a slight ping and she reappears. "All ya gotta do is tap the ruby t' turn th' power on and off. 10 gp." She puts it down on the table and shoves her face agressively into yours.
"That's all the weapons I got. Now are ya gonna buy, or are ya gonna get outta here?"
