Both of those items should have been in the last haul. I will repost them when I get home as they are both nice items and quite spendy.
I do not have the armor,boots or hammer.
I apparently did not spend the cash. What was I thinking?

Crafted of stout, wax-treated leather
and wrapped with warm fur reminiscent
of a frost giant's beard, these boots are
sometimes given as gifts by the frost
giant tribes of the north to their smaller
allies. In addition to functioning as boots
of the winter/ands, the boots of the winter
Jori enable their wearer to take the form of a frost giant once
per day, as with the giant form I spell. While in giant form,
the wearer gains a +6 size bonus to Strength, a -2 penalty to
Dexterity, a +4 size bonus to Constitution, a +4 natural armor
bonus, low-light vision, rock catching, rock throwing, and resist
cold 20, but also gains vulnerability to fire. The wearer can
remain in giant form for up to 10 minutes.

This book is bound in dyed
goatskin, and its coarse, thick
pages are stained in a variety of
colors and covered in wavering
script; rough sketches; and
diagrams of various plants,
mystic symbols, and animal parts. A crude wooden spoon
serves a bookmark. A cookbook of arcane augmentation
contains recipes that allow an arcane spellcaster who prepares
spells to augment her spells with specific metamagic effects
th rough ritual preparation. A cookbook of a rcane augmentation
contains recipes for Ectoplasmic Spe11APG, Persistent Spe11APG,
Rime SpelluM, and Sickening Spe11APG, and can be used to
augment spells of 6th level or lower.
Once per day, the spellcaster can augment a spell by
following a recipe as part of her normal spell preparation. To
prepare an augmented spell, the spellcaster must succeed
at a Craft (alchemy) check (DC 15 + spell level) while mixing
the recipe's ingredients in a cauldron. (The cost of these
ingredients is negligible, and they are assumed to be readily
available in a spell component pouch.) If the check succeeds,
the spell is augmented with the recipe's metamagic feat. This
doesn't change the spell slot of the augmented spell. On a
failed check, that spell can't be augmented that day, but the
caster can attempt to augment another spell.
A spellcaster can prepare only a single augmented spell each
time she prepares spells, and apply only one augmentation
from the cookbook to any given spell, but can combine an
augmentation with metamagic feats she possesses. In this
case, only the feats possessed by the caster adjust the spell slot
of the spell being cast. The book doesn't confer the associated
metamagic feat on the owner, only the ability to use the given
feat when spells are prepared.

Carved from a single block of ice
birthed from the breath of the great
white wyrm Sjohvor, the ice-carved
rings of this exquisite suit of +2
chainmail never thaw. If grappled,
the wearer can command the armor
to release an icy blast against the
grappler. The armor then glows with a
pale blue radiance, deals 4d6 points of
cold damage to the target, and causes
the target to be staggered for i round.
Once the armor discharges, this ability can't be used until the
armor recharges 1 hour later.
Ice/ink chain mail is considered light armor and has an arcane
spell failure chance of 20%, a maximum Dexterity bonus of +4,
and an armor check penalty of -3. The armor weighs half as
much as standard chainmail and floats in water.
Here are 3 of the big ticket items you just should have gotten. I think no one made the spellcraft to identify whish is why no one has them. Have fun dividing them up. Also remember that you have the raven from the trader when ever you wish to purchase items.
I know Duardlara has the Cookbook of Augmentation in her possession.
The boots would probably be useful for Greta. They are cool (even if Boots of Speed cost almost half the price :P).
The armor... Meh... I say sell it?
The boots sound good for a melee warrior. I cannot use the armor, so selling it is fine with me. I don't recall either item being mentioned or trying to spellcraft them, but I could have forgotten.
I do indeed have the cookbook - I kept it in favor of buying a bunch of other items.

You are the one who can make the best use of it - makes perfect sense you keep it ;)
SO the submissions that we received are Ellioti, Nikolaus, JoshB and Ironperenti. Please PM me with your vote of whom you would like to adventure with.

Here is a google slide I made with the full gazetteer of Triaxus that Ironperereti's character would have knowledge of and thus relay to you. Please read and familiarize yourself with it as it might help you later after the siege!
Welcome aboard Ironperenti?
And... Welcome back Cynehelm?
@Baub, Variel’s work schedule can wreak havoc on his posting opportunities, so don’t be alarmed if his PM takes a bit to arrive. In the meantime, welcome!
So, for the rest of the team, should I be prepared to spam flight and invisibility spells? Or just invisibility?
Why not both? ;)
Baub I sent the pm via the discussion thread link as once I got started the information you would know was too extensive. Check out the post a couple up. Otherwise you will be on the garrison as a member if the watch helping out in the 3rd encounter.
I agree with Jetro - maybe a mix?
Well, because Cynehelm is providing flight for the entire team, but OK. I have three fly spells available and a variety of "you can't see me" options. I figure a greater invisibility on Jetro when it's time to fight rather than flee would be the most effective.
As an evoker, I have to have a few damaging spells in the queue, so I have a persistent fireball prepared using the cookbook. Otherwise, message and ghost sound are intended to provide some trickery and communication options.
My thought is that we can avoid the frost drakes by having most of the party briefly invisible and going one direction while one or two get the faster flight option and lead them away before circling back to meet the others, likely invisible. As such, Duardlara will need to be among the bait group.
I don't have a plan for the second encounter - I presume there will be combat to get through - maybe my fireball can soften up that group before we have to engage. Maybe greater invisibility on one of the rogues would be a better choice for sneak attacking.
Rumors of a third encounter just frighten me a bit. Hope Baub's got some good tricks up his/her/its sleeves.
Once you have a plan, even a small bit, just run with it Duardlara and make a post IC and we can work from there.
Full at first level then 1/2 had +1 after that.
Welcome aboard Ironperenti?
And... Welcome back Cynehelm?
I'm here! Just still a bit shaky schedule-wise.
Glad to here. This weekend was horrible for me as well. Will get another post up tomorrow with Manos init as well. Sorry for delay.
Yes you are part of the Skyfire Mandate. As such you have access to all of the locations within Spurhorn and can move freely. As long as you are with the party as well then they are escorted and free to move as well. Just don't try to steal anything and you will be just fine lol.
yes Baub! welcome to the club. Sorry it took a bit to get to you. I have your own init posted as well.
Jetro are you taking any action or just talking at this point?
Flapping my lips.
I feel that Baub and Cynehelm are working essentially the same corner. They're both fiery evokers. Baub, do you have any other shticks?

Sorry, I was on a long drive. I was unaware you were a fire based evoker. I can modify some items to use another element (thinking acid) or if it would be preferred I could go with a totally different branch of magic (researching enchantment and necromancy). Either option of course based on DM approval.
As long as both of you are happy I can work with it.
Good deal. Yeah, Cynehelm is a fire evoker based on a cleric's chassis.

How is this? I think I made all appropriate changes. Since I am no longer a fire evoker I dropped dragon blooded and went with arcane. Necromancy is his main focus. I have haste for the group and several I can use to debuff the enemy. I get a slew of spells next round, if there is something the group needs, please let me know.

Sounds great. We could use a debuffer and necromancy seems to fit with the AP's witch-related themes.
Thanks for being flexible, Baub. Looking forward to having you on board.
Yes you would know her
Apologies for my delays in posting everyone - this week is turning out waaaaaaaay more complicated than I anticipated - my parents are visiting until Friday, and in the meantime I am having a couple unexpected job interviews and whatnot. So yeah...
That being the case, and if I don't post with the desired frequency, please feel free to bot me as needed.
Not precisely Baub. You are seen as more important than the crossbowmen because of your abilities but not necessarily due to rank. As such the crossbowmen would listen to you to a degree as you might have an insight that they don’t.
All set to move on
Si! Si!
Yes, ready to proceed.
