Wondrous Dreams in Bloodhelm

Wondrous Dreams is a unique shop. One large building with a cellar for storage, the whole building is almost entirely devoted to sewing. Since nobles love to have costume balls, Marilyn Deepwater and her four seamstresses are kept very busy. Prices for costumes, which can be very elaborate, can range from 50 gold to nearly 2,000 gold. Marilyn also keeps a mage on hand to do those final touches she just can't do with her wonderful skill with fabric.

Masks, made by her husband, are also available and can be just as expensive. She takes all sort of requests, but has to have at least 3 days notice (though she keeps some simple costumes on hand just in case someone needs a last minute costume). The building is crammed with bolts of fabric, samples and busy women sewing. Made of wood and some decorative river rock, the place is fairly simple.

Adventurers could meet Marilyn if they are invited to a ball by a patron or if they need a little extra for one of their jobs. The prices will only go down a bit for those who have good haggle skills. Her ladies work hard and the materials are expensive.
