The shop is simple and easy to overlook, just a wooden stall with a sign overhanging that reads "Curios for the Curious." Jars, vials, and small pots clutter the surface of the shop, and behind the counter is a large shelf crammed full of scrolls, baubles, and statuary. A smell of incense pervades the area.
Mysterious shop, Bazaar
a magician
mysterious owner
I am the owner of a curiosity shop. I sell magical charms and other mystical items. I try to create an aura of mystery about myself and my shop. I keep to myself, and don't get close to other people. My ability to sell myself as a master spellcaster is what my business depends on.
Every man that comes to me for help gets more than he bargains for.  What seems to be the problem? I am wanting more than I can bargain for. My performances are getting stale. That is rarely the fault of the wand, but I can probably help.  What are you seeking to be able to do? Well can't you see that my wand broke in half?  You have a cheap wand that much is obvious, but I asked what do you seek? I seek a powerful wand. I want to impress my beautiful assistant. Hmmmm, that is a tawdry desire!  I cannot help you, take your cheap wand and leave! Haven't you wanted a woman before sir? If that is all this is and you want cheap tricks take this vial, but if you want something deeper you must seek it fully. I want to enchant my assistant to love me forever. I don't think you understand what I am offering you!  I am a dealer in the dark arts.  This goes beyond the temporal but you have to seek it.  In the realm I am speaking of you can have anything you want, do anything you want, but you have no discipline. I have dark magic too!
