Mordus Everdeen (Mor-dus ever-deen)

Mordus Everdeen is a shady traveling merchant specializing in exotic magical wares, often of dubious quality. He has been known to sell fake items mixed in with real ones at an inflated price while claiming they are from some far-flung location. He travels in the guise of a human, but he is secretly an elf with a background of nobility. He hides his elven features with his sky blue bandanna, which he wears around his head, enchanted with a spell that allows him to cast disguise self at will. His real name is Phillandrio Everglow.
He is most well-known for his traveling storefront with the words "Mordus' emporium". The cart is painted deep shades of purple with blue accents and is pulled by two horses named Trixie and Lucy (who barely ever move, acting more like taxidermies than actual horses). He normally sets up shop in cities across Ebresia using his Wand of Teleportation, which he also uses to escape dangerous with his cart instantly (same as a Helm of Teleportation, but as a brass wand with an amethyst tip).

1/day: Mordus' Bandanna. Mordus casts Color Spray at 9th level in a 20-ft radius sphere around him (as opposed to the regular range of the spell). This version of color spray lasts three rounds instead of one.

Cunning Action. Mordus can use a bonus action on his turn to take the Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object action.
Daggermaster. Mordus deals an additional die of damage when attacking with daggers, and doubles both the short and long ranges of a thrown dagger (included in the attack).
Evasion. When Mordus is subjected to an effect that allows him to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, he instead takes no damage if the saving throw is successful, and only half damage if the roll is a failure.
Sneak Attack. Once per turn, Mordus can deal an extra 31 (9d6) damage to one creature he hits with an attack if it has advantage on the attack roll. The attack must use a finesse or ranged weapon. Mordus doesn’t need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within 5 feet of it, that enemy isn’t incapacitated, and the master thief doesn’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.
