Orville's Winter Shop
You do not need any skills to purchase or use items from this shop.
Fall becomes winter as the air turns cold, snow and ice slowly moving from the north to coat the rest of Charon in a beautiful blanket. A small cottage built into a massive tree in Frostgale turns its lights on, a large white snow owl places a sign in the window and dust off their goods. Orville, an Avenkin, owns one of the most mystical and fun shops in Charon which only opens during the cold winter months.
Spells
| North Star (Sea Domain: Enhancement | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| After casting this spell, a bright orb of light will rise hundreds of feet up into the air. This orb will give off a faint, pale glow of light for the next three posts and illuminate the surrounding area. This orb will always point directly to the north, and moves with you as you travel. After three posts, this light will fade and it cannot be used again for two posts. | 20 Solars |
| Camp Fire (Earth Domain: Enhancement | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| You choose a empty location that you can see and summon an average sized campfire within the area. For the next 10 post this campfire will give off magical heat and warmth, and can not be extinguished outside of canceling the spell. While it is able to keep anyone warm during any kind of weather, this campfire deals little to no damage, making it perfect for falling asleep next to in cold weather and bitter chill. | 25 Solars |
| Caroler's Confusion (General Arcana: Curse | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| A song that can be sung or played through an instrument, but acts just like a normal spell. While being sung or played, a cacophony of voices will echo out from the singer as its origin, filling the area with multiple loud voices. These voices will continuously sing holiday songs from various villages around Charon. At first the music may seem nice, but you will start to lose focus and become confused and annoyed after only seconds of hearing the caroler's cacophony. This spell lasts for three post and will cancel out any other songs being played. | 25 Solars |
| Naughty or Nice (Light Domain: Enhancement | Long | 1 Action) | Price |
| When speaking with a person, you can cast this spell to get a sense of their intentions. It does not tell you whether the target is telling the truth or lying, but it does give you a general sense if that person means you good or ill will. Additionally, if there is an alignment attached to this creature, you can immediately sense it - good creates the smell of peppermint, while evil creates the smell of burning coal. This spell works on any creature intelligent enough to hold a conversation. | 25 Solars |
| Cold Fist (Sea Domain: Curse | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| This spell causes a thick coating of solid ice to form on the user's hands and forearms, giving them gauntlets of ice around their fists. Any melee attack made with these fists will deal ice damage and cause a small chunk of the ice to break off. After striking three times with this spell active, the ice around your hands will fully fall off. The shards that fall off during your strikes will take the form of extremely sharp spears which can be picked up and used as weapons for the rest of the topic. | 25 Solars |
| Snug and Cozy (Space Domain: Enhancement | Touch | 1 Action) | Price |
| You can touch yourself or an ally, causing the target’s body to become temporarily compact and malleable. This spell allows you to squeeze through small and tight spaces you normally would not be able to crawl through, such as chimneys, cracks in walls and windows, or small tunnels. This spell has a three post cooldown before it can be used again. | 40 Solars |
| Frost Flash (Sea Domain: Curse | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| The caster of this spell summons a freezing cold gust of wind that will instantly blow through the immediate area. The wind will be so cold that any exposed skin will blister and freeze, becoming dry and sensitive to the touch. The affected skin will be blistered for three post, and will take double damage from physical attacks. The damaged skin can be prevented or healed by a heat source such as a campfire. | 25 Solars |
| The Grand Feast (General Arcana: Enhancement | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| A simple spell that is used on a solid surface such as a floor or table. When cast, this spell will fill the surface up with all kinds of food— from cooked meats, to fruits, and even to desserts. This spread of food will last for 12 hours and is enough to fully feed three people, allowing them to go another 24 hours without needing to eat. This spell can only be used once per topic. | 25 Solars |
| Bog Fog (Sea Domain: Curse | Far | 1 Action) | Price |
| By channeling magic into the environment, you cause a thick cloud of fog to form over a 100 foot area. This fog will last for 3 post and is extremely hard to see through, making it difficult to navigate, traverse, or fight within. Not only is it good at concealing things, it is extremely thick and heavy, and prevents wind from blowing it or redirecting it away. Has a two post cool down in between uses. | 30 Solars |
| Frost Pulse (Sea Domain: Projectile | Medium | 1 Action) | Price |
| You spend a few moments welling up magical power in your fingertips before releasing a thirty foot long, narrow beam of freezing energy that will last until it is canceled. The longer the beam strikes an opponent, the more damage it deals; and it is even capable of inflicting frostbite. This spell is draining on your mana supply, and its draining effect will become greater the longer it is used. You can not move or cast other spells while using this beam. | 35 Solars |
| Be Jolly (Light Domain: Curse | Touch | 1 Action) | Price |
| By touching your target, you place a curse on them which forces them to be kind and gentle. This curse will last for two post and can not be removed. While cursed, if the target casts an offensive spell (one meant to deal damage or negatively effect someone) the curse will end and they will take a large amount of mental damage. If they take the damage, they can not cast any spells for the next post. | 40 Solars |
| Hibernation (Earth Domain: Curse | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| After casting this spell on an Animal NPC, they will begin to become unbearably sleepy. Within a post, they will fall asleep where they stand and remain asleep for the next two posts; during this time, if they take any damage, the spell will be interrupted, and they will wake. | 25 Solars |
| Summon: Snowball (Sea Domain: Curse | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| By concentrating your mana within your fingertips, you summon a ball of snow into your hands. This snowball is formed with the moisture lingering in the air, and is made of fine, packed ice particles. You can throw this snowball as a distraction, or otherwise use it to be a general annoyance. This snowball does not melt when exposed to heat, but if placed directly into fire, or hit by a fire spell, this snowball will melt back into the water particles that it was pulled from, and evaporate back into the atmosphere. | 10 Solars |
| Snow Fort (Sea Domain: Barrier | Short | 1 Action) | Price |
| Using yourself or an ally as a point of origin, you can cast this spell to create a snow fort around them or yourself; in cold locations, this spell will use snow— however, in warmer locations, this spell will freeze over the moisture in the air in order to accomplish its arcane purpose. This spell creates a completed circular wall up to four feet high, seemingly crafted of solid bricks of ice and snow. The Snow Fort can take the impact of three magical, ranged, or physical attacks before it crumbles. This spell can be negated by fire spells of the Earth Domain. | 25 Solars |
Weapons & Armor
| Toy Hammer (Blunt | 0 Points) | Price |
| A wooden toy made to look like a battle hammer. It is light and easy to wield, allowing someone to swing this hammer around wildly. Unfortunately, the hammer does very little damage and only delivers a light bonk upon impact; however, when the hammer strikes an object, it lets out a high pitched squeak that can be annoying and distracting. | 15 Solars |
| Northern Snow Mask (Clothing | 0 Points) | Price |
| A unique mask crafted from animal bone and hide which is often worn by hunters or tribesmen in the cold north. This mask comes fitted with warm fur and narrow eye slits which protect the eyes from snow, dirt, and dust. While this mask is worn, your eyes can not be damaged or affected by particulates that might harm them such as dust and smoke. Does not protect against blinding effects. | 20 Solars |
| Hearth hammer (Blunt | 4 Points) | Price |
| A hearth made from brick and wrought-iron, ripped from a Frostgale fireplace and attached to a long pole. It can be utilized as an extremely heavy hammer and, when not in combat, a fireplace for warmth. Due to its sheer weight, it acts as if it has the heavy enchantment, and is incredibly slow, but it packs a punch. When this is used as a weapon while a fire is lit in the hearth, you can choose to dump smoldering coals and fire on your target, adding fire damage to your hit. Additionally, the ash and smoke makes it difficult for them to breathe, forcing them to cough and wheeze. | 40 Solars |
| Ice Skates (Item | 0 Points) | Price |
| A unique metal attachment that can be fitted to any kind of shoe or boot. Two thin metal blades are built into the shoe and are able to be popped out or popped back in by clicking the sides of the shoes together. When summoned, these thin blades will be coated in a very thin veil of ice, allowing the user to skate across solid surfaces such as earth and stone. The blades can also be used as weapons when kicking. | 25 Solars |
| Mistletoe Wand (Wand | 1 Point) | Price |
| A wooden wand fashioned by an ancient wizard from the north from a very old piece of mistletoe. This wand acts as a focus, allowing you to cast spells through the wand without the need of a free hand. If you cast a spell through this wand that targets an ally or friend and has a duration, that duration is extended by one post. | 25 Solars |
| Rime Mantle (Clothing | 1 Point) | Price |
| The Rime Mantle is a relic of ages past used by the first people of the Pale City long before the Dark elves called it home. These stark white and almost translucent cloaks conceal the wearer perfectly in any snowy environment and can be hardened at will with a small input of the wearers mana. Doing so turns the Rime Mantil's fabric into a steel-like density to block physical attacks with. The cloak can only be activated twice per topic and lasts for two post. | 25 Solars |
| Frostbitten Falchion (Blade | 2 Points) | Price |
| A glistening blade forged by blacksmiths of the Frostgale and crafted of an ice as strong as metal. The Frostbitten Falchion is constantly at a sub-zero temperature, regardless of the environment around it, and gives off a consistent aura of ice crystals and mist. Upon striking with this blade, you will cause ice to form around the impact. This ice that forms continues to grow for one post, chilling your enemy to the bone, and slowing them for their next post. | 35 Solars |
| Snowflake Shuriken (Marksman | 1 Point) | Price |
| A set of five throwing stars that are made out of cold steel; these shuriken are white and made to look like snowflakes. The Snowflake Shuriken are very good at blending into snowy or icy environments, making them hard to see. While one of these throwing stars are air borne, the user can activate the magic within, causing three illusionary images of the weapon to appear midair next to the real one, hiding it, and tricking enemies into thinking there are more. | 25 Solars |
| Cold Wood Cane (Blunt | 2 Points) | Price |
| A polearm with a curved head that resembles a cane in appearance. This weapon has the unique ability to change its size according to the will of its wielder. It can shrink down to six inches in length to be easily carried, but can also extend to be up to twelve feet long. The weight of this item increases proportional to its length; it is light as a feather at its smallest size, but is very heavy and can be difficult to wield effectively when fully extended. | 30 Solars |
| Explosive Ornaments (Item | 0 Points) | Price |
| Three glass ornaments typically used to decorate trees and homes during Winter's Crown. These, however, have been tampered with by pirates from Dragon's Cradle and sold as a prank. These glass balls are filled with black powder, and when applied to flame, they will instantly explode. This fiery explosion will reach up to five feet from the ornament's origin point, and deals moderate fire damage. | 30 Solars |
| Icicle Pauldrons (Armor | 2 Points) | Price |
| A pair of metal pauldrons that act just like the armor from the armor shop. These pauldrons are coated in a thin layer of ice, with icicles dripping off of them. Once per topic the wearer can summon the magic within, and cause ice to coat their entire being. For their next post they will be completely immobile, unable to take actions or do anything. However, they will also be immune to all damage and effects, and are unable to be targeted by anything. This effect can only be used once per topic. | 30 Solars |
| The Snuggle (Item | 0 Points) | Price |
| A large jacket, cloak, or cape made out of a heavy blanket and designed to be worn backwards; as such, it has arm holes on the front and allows the blanket to fully wrap around your body while keeping your hands free. While average looking at first, the Snuggle can be commanded; and its wearer can cause the cloth to fly from their body and assault their enemies, attempting to bind them in the Snuggle. The cloth itself is not very strong and any amount of effort can remove it, but it makes for a great distraction. | 35 Solars |
| Tree (Blunt | 4 Points) | Price |
| A six-foot pine tree that has been uprooted and crafted into a weapon. It is used much like a two handed hammer; this tree can be swung around with both hands and deals heavy amounts of blunt damage. Once per topic the tree can be aimed, then fired, using magic to propel all of the tiny pine needles forward in a massive shower of needles. These needles deal very minor amounts of damage, but can be fired in a large wave and cover a wide area. The pine needles do nothing against armor and can be destroyed with fire. | 35 Solars |
| Glimmerstring (Tree Charm | 0 Points) | Price |
| A long string of silver and gold sparkling material meant to be wrapped around the exterior of a Winter’s Crown tree. It shines when it catches the light, giving it a sparkling quality. When you apply glimmerstring to your tree, you give it a shimmering and bright quality. Additionally, when you whack someone with the tree, once per topic you gain the ability to tangle them in the Glimmerstring, trapping them in your snare for the next post - they are not only grappled, but are also dragged around with the tree for the duration of your next post. This item can only be applied to the Tree Only one item can be applied to the Tree at a time | 15 Solars |
| The Star (Tree Charm | 0 Points) | Price |
| A gilded, metallic star that comes in silver or gold. It is a traditional topper for Winter’s Crown trees and is quite heavy. Its pointed edges make it a deadly implement for stabbing. When you apply this star to your tree, you can now use your tree like a lance, giving it a powerful stabbing effect. This is especially useful when attacking from mounts. This item can only be applied to the Tree Only one item can be applied to the Tree at a time | 15 Solars |
| Jingle Bells (Tree Charm | 0 Points) | Price |
| Golden bels that are traditionally hung on Winter's Crown trees. They clink together and jingle when the tree moves, making it difficult to conceal one's presence while they have their tree decorated with this item. However, the bells are incredibly loud and can be annoying, throwing enemies off focus when they hear the sound of their ringing. In addition, when you utilize the tree's feature to fire off pine needles, the bells all ring at once in a discordant symphony, and any of your allies possessing the Bardic Virtuoso prestige class gain an extra use of one feature of their choice. This item can only be applied to the Tree Only one item can be applied to the Tree at a time | 15 Solars |
| Sprigs of Holly (Tree Charm | 0 Points) | Price |
| Decorating one’s tree with little bushels of holly berries and leaves is a common tradition in Frostgale. These little berries are spread throughout the tree - when they burst, they release a sickly-sweet and sticky berry juice that coats the pine needles of the tree. When you use the Tree's feature to unleash a volley of pine needles, they will get stuck where they land. In addition, it makes the target sticky - for the next post, any physical item they touch or lands on them will be stuck to them. This item can only be applied to the Tree Only one item can be applied to the Tree at a time | 15 Solars |
Pets & Mounts
| Door Mouse (Pet | Does Not Count Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A small mouse trained and honed to work with individuals. A highly intelligent creature capable of problem solving, silent movement, and nimble maneuvering.

The Door Mouse comes with a tiny back pack that one can use to store or hide important information. | 30 Solars |
| Bottle of Snowlings (Pet | Does Not Count Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A round bottle of what appears to be never-melting snow... but tip the bottle and snowlings will pour out.

The entire group of Snowlings may be assigned one type of task at a time. | 30 Solars |
| Aura Hawk (Pet | Counts Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A brown and white-feathered hawk with luminescent blue eyes. This hawk sits slightly bigger than regular birds, and it possesses a long, glowing tail that almost fades into pure light. Aura Hawks are creatures that have been imbued with the magic of the northern lights - when they fly, their wings light up, trailing an aura of multicolored, shifting northern lights through the air where they move. This light cuts through fog and fog-based spells, serving as a beacon to guide its lost owner in areas where their sight has been impacted. | 30 Solars |
| The Joyless (Pet | Counts Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A squat, two-legged creature that scuttles around in a hunch and mutters to itself. Its uncanniness is only furthered by the fact that it seems to exert an aura of misery. Those who hear its mutterings are struck with a feeling of sluggishness and despair, making their movements and reactions slower as they become depressed. They are more active in the months surrounding the winter solstice when there is less light and are commonly attributed to seasonal despair. They never wander off from their owner and constantly complain, bring everyone around them down. This has caused many a Joyless to wander the wild seeking new owners. | 10 Solars |
| Manul Tuftbird (Pet | Counts Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A small and very fluffy cat; the Manul Tuftbird is a winged feline with plenty of soft feather and fur rounding it out, and keeping it warm in the cold of the Frost Gale.

| Candle Golem (Pet | Does Not Count Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A wax golem carved in the magical runes of the Arcana Formulae; this little candle golem makes a consistent light through the wick on its head, which only burns out when the golem is inactive. It is not very strong, nor is it very smart, but this little golem is very loyal; no matter the form it takes, a candle golem will fit in the palm of your hand and act as a light. It may complete small, simple tasks such as carrying very small objects, but cannot understand more complicated requests. While the flame it emits is warm and bright, it is not strong enough to set fire to things, and can be blown out by a Wind spell. | 15 Solars |
| Glacier Flea (Mount | Counts Against NPC Cap) | Price |
| A horse-sized insect with six legs. With their carapace resembling ice, the Glacier Flea can be considered see-through, nearly invisible, in the right light; as a result, the Glacier Flea can remain completely still, using its body to camoflauge itself for up to two posts or until it moves.
