Shops in the City of Brass are run by extraplanar merchants.[3] They have a chance of being generated with a katana, a potion of full healing, a potion of hallucination and a wand of speed monster.[4] Compared to regular shopkeepers, extraplanar merchants have a higher level, stronger attacks, and similar behaviour.

Strategy
You may need to enter or leave a shop on this level. You could bring a mummy wrapping so that you can enter and leave even if permanently invisible. Alternatively, you can bring a pet strong enough to kill the merchants if they get in your way.
