Below are a few examples of his more well-known and/or popular wares; however, this is not the full extent of his alchemical stores. More potions, oils, dusts, and powders are certainly available from his person; anything specific usually requiring a time period pending on the rarity, complexity, and volume ordered. Prices are decided on a case by case basis; pending not only what and how much is ordered, but also who is doing the ordering, as well.

His outfit and appearance will change when depending on what he is selling and who is selling to. Not all of his wares are necessarily looked upon in high regard; therefore unless he is comfortable or the two characters have a history together, most meetings he'll be covered head to toe in some dark disguise.

Potions
Agony (Liquid Pain): Thick, reddish-brown liquid is the distilled essence of pain. Often sought after by outsiders and extreme masochists, as well as torturers seeking to ply their trade more efficiently. Initial effects are the patient experiencing brief mild shock, having trouble taking any actions, followed by an intense amplification of both pain and pleasure for the next 2-4 hours. If more than one dose is administered within a 24-hour period, the user can fall unconscious for 4-5 hours.
Sannish: A bluish liquid distilled from the milk of wolves and a powdered desert plant. It's known to cause a pleasant state of euphoria, which, along with its relatively cheap price, make it rather popular. Addicts are easily spotted by the permanent blue stains on their lips. The users become numbed to pain for 2-4 hours. While under its effects, they reported a decrease in aware, reflexes & hand-eye coordination. A second dose taken while the first is still in effect causes a numbing stupor for 2-8 hours.
Ajida: An odorless, colorless liquid. A single dose gradually causes the imbiber's vision to grow dark and dim; cause complete
blindness unless antidote is administered. Without it, the user's vision will slowly begin to return after a period of 1-2 hours.
Stonefish Toxin: This toxin from the stonefish is given in small doses in respect to the intense pain that it causes. The pain, which is described as instantaneous, intense, sharp, and a burning radiance within minutes from the wound site, involving the entire leg, groin, abdomen, or if in the upper extremities, the armpit, shoulder, neck and head. The pain may become so severe that the victim thrashes about, rolling on the ground, screaming in agony, and at times losing consciousness. The areas around the wound (and extremeity) become numb, a condition that lingers between 1-2 weeks. (In some cases, the limb has been paralyzed for three weeks.)
Dusts & Powders
Baccaran: A pasty substance that is dried and keps as a powder or sometimes as a paste. It has numberous, difficult to obtain ingredients, and acts as a mild hallucinogen. Inital effects include a loss of physical strength for 2-4 hours accompanied by illusions for the next 4-8 hours. Of more than one dose is taken in a 24-hour period, both effects are doubled in penalty and duration.
Luhix: Made from the powdered stalks of luhix plants, which only grow in the Abyss. It is normally sprinkled onto bleeding wounds, which are then sealed with bandages or magical healing. The user is immediately afflicted with an intense, wracking pain for the first few minutes of application to the wound or bare skin. Once this pain passes, the user immune to all pain; not able to react or feel when they are hurt or damaged. Often used as a last resort numbing agent because of addiction and risk of overdose. Users who overdose, taking more than one dose of Luhix in 24 hours, are overcome with indescribable agony, usually causing their body to go into shock and then heart attack.
Mushroom Powder: Derived from a rare blue mushroom, this powder is inhaled to produce a state of mild hallucination and heightened awares. Many magic users favor mushroom powder; claiming they are more in-tune with the powers and aether around them. If more than one dose is taken in a 12-hour period, the user suffers from intense migraines. Using it more than three times in any 24-hour period causes agonizing pain and paralyzes the user for between 2-8 hours.
Peppy Powder: This fine white powder comes sealed in a coin sized parchment envelope; it's ingredients are a closely guarded secret. A power typically only consumed by males. Initial effects are a rise in temperature, energy and an increase in stamina. A drug known to help increase the sexual prowess, and in some rumors, even size of the male's genitals. Side effects include dizziness along with heart complications. Taking more than one packet of powder in a 24-hour period is not recommended and can result in a heart attack and / or temporary insanity.
Leaves & Fungi
Mordayn Vapor (Dream Mist): Made from the ground leaves of a rare herb found deep in tropical forests, the highly potent mordayn is taken by steeping a small amount in hot water, and then inhaling the vapors from the resultant tea. Raw mordayn powder and mordayn-tainted water are a deadly poison, and taking either immediately results in the effects of an overdose. Dream Mist is well-known for the beautiful visions it induces and the deadly peril that can come from its sinister embrace. Compared to the poignant beauty of the vision induced by Dream Mist, a user's normal life seems drab and futile in comparison, leading users to desire more doses as quickly as possible. Once the dose wears off, the users is compelled to do whatever is necessary to obtain another dose. The compulsion lasts between 1-3 hours for fading. If two doses are taken within the space of an hour, or if raw mordayn or tea are ingested, the drub becomes a deadly poison. Regular users typically throw out the tea immediately after inhaling to be sure to prevent an overdose.
Devilweed: Wyssin plant leaves that are dried and rolled for smoking like tobacco. Highly addictive, offering a mild numbing sensation in the lips and gums as well as a soothing to the nerves. Creatures under the effects have been to be shaken and skittish, acting easily ocnfused. Prolonged use has been known to cause hard addiction and symptoms of withdrawal if the user decides to then stop.
Belladonna (Nightshade): Flowers and leaves accented by purple-black berries; a dull, pale purple-blue. All parts of the plant are poisonous, particularly the roots, leaves, and berries. Eating the any of part of the plant or steeping in hot water can cause dialated pupils, blurred vision, increased heart rate, dry mouth, disorientation, hallucinations, impaired vision, loud heart beat, aggressive behavior, rapid pulse and respiration, convulsions, coma, and death. Severity of symptoms are dependent on the amount ingested. Belladonna takes its name fro the practice of certain women who would use eye drops of the substance to dilate their pupils. This was thought to enhance their beauty, hence 'bella donna' or beautiful woman.
Cushion Fungus Spores: Creatures caught within a spore cloud begin to feel drowsy, with a deep, peaceful sleep coming on shortly after. Even if the victim manages to avoid sleep, they are instead afflicted by a fogginess of the mind and confusion; symptoms accelerating the longer they fight slumber. Victims succumbed to the spores will fall to the ground, asleep, and will remain in this state until they are removed from the radius of the cloud. Duration and length of sleep is extremely dependent on the potency and size of the spore cloud. Without an antidote, victims have been known to remain asleep between 1-3 days.
Ointments, Oils, & Lotions
Vodare: An extremely bitter, brown oil, vodare is usually mixed with honeyed water or sweet wine to dilute its awful taste. It is made from the crushed petals of the vodare flower, which grows only on the graves or places of death of those who devoted their lives to a specific goddess. It creates a sense of mild euphoria and a fierece confidence in those who ingest it. Euphoria and confidence maybe lead users to more extreme, foolhardy actions that normal. If more than one dose is taken in a 4-hour period, the user becomes catatonic.
Darkshaft's Rest: This dark ointment, made from the purple and dark green moss found in underwater caves, is known to cause the following symptoms when applied to the user's skin; specifically neck or forehead: paranoia, coldsweats, tremors and muscle spasms, and nightmarish hallucinations. If the user attempts to fall asleep or rest, the ointment plauges their dreams with strong illusions and vivid nightmares. It is the dreams that casue the greatest effect; unable to tell if what they're experiencing is real or an illusion.
Rathrae Dos: This poison is greatly favored by for use in torture chambers. Brewed from the venom of the ghostyk, a strange insectoid creature that resembles a praying mantis, it attacks the central nervous system, rendering its victim completely incapable of movement, though fully capable of feeling pain. Duration is dependent on the dose administered; lasting anywhere between 2 - 12 hours.
Babblejuice Oil: This oil can be administered in a number of ways; either through ingesting or by means of an open would usually. The victim will start speaking of anything that comes to mind.
