Hell yeah, those were some great rolls. We got almost everything on the list. That Metamagic Rod of Tenebrous Spell would have been helpful, but it's no big loss. We're pretty much set for a nice long while now, we just need to get the new adamantine armor and weapons enchanted back in Andoran.
Now that the group has those amulets, rings, and hats, they aren't just sneaky stealth specialists. Now they're extremely difficult to find with Divination, immune to mind reading, magical lie detection, their alignments are hidden, and they can look however they want to in order to avoid suspicion or infiltrate a location. Gorok's Ghosts, indeed.
It was a lot of money to spend, and using the ring and amulet slots for this gear is suboptimal for combat purposes, but it just fits our party really well. Also, we need the stuff to stay alive.
Cob takes the chance to proove his strength by lifting Warty.... attempting to at least. The slurk gives gives a helpful bounce when he figures out what he's trying.
I'm all for dealing with the Ghoul in a more permanent fashion, but like Sirim said, once we kick in the door we can't unkick it.
@DragonParadox, can a Ring of Spell Storing hold a Mythic spell? Like if Kori cast a Mythic Invisibility spell or Mina a Mythic Heroism spell into them?
[X] Sirim's plan, pretend to be a customer...for now.
-[X] The group will use their new Hats of Disguise to change their identities and apparent races before approaching the shop, and Warty will be returned to statuette form by Mina using Wild Arcana to cast Carry Companion.

I did not expect to find half of what we requested, rolls or not. Even for a big coastal city it's still implausible to have everything in one place and accessible in a couple days.
I wonder what kind of encounters are ahead of us. Would be nice to have some allies if we are heading down below.

I'm surprised we got all of it, too, but I wouldn't say it is implausible. Like you said, Cassomir is a large trading city. It's also part of a large (if declining) nation with a rich tradition of magic and a significant population of rich nobles and wealthy adventurers. My shopping list was mostly standard, bread-and-butter type gear one could expect to find in high end enchanter shops in a place like this.
I tried to avoid purchasing much in the way of weird or esoteric stuff. The most unlikely purchases, IMO, were the headband for Gorok, the Glibness bracers for Kori, and maybe the Verdant Vine Bracers for Mina and Sirim, though considering the proximity to a large group of Druids, that last one is pretty fitting for the area.
I wonder what kind of encounters are ahead of us. Would be nice to have some allies if we are heading down below.
If we want more local talent, the Pathfinders might be willing to send some people, too. We still haven't given them our answer about joining up or not, but they may be willing to take a job for cash. Alternatively, it would be a good opportunity for them to earn some favors from the governor of Cassomir, if we present it to them properly.
We could lend him the amulet we bought for Sirim or just have Sirim cast it on him using Wild Arcana. I would prefer the latter option, because those amulets are extremely expensive and we don't need Paica getting ideas about keeping it.

We still need to split the pirate's loot value with him, so he has incentive to not be a dick.
I think we should keep the Wild Arcana available and lend him the amulet, just make it clear that it's a loan. Your convern is valid, but we can just nip that idea in the bud. He's an indebted noble, not a dragon
What I envision:
Pisca: "take me with you, you'll need my reputation to make your report go over better"
Party: "that would be useful, be we are worried about being scried. For us to be able to take you with us, you must use this amulet of nondetection. It'll only be a loan for the duration of our joint mission though. We bought it for a friend, and we want then to be able to use this amulet ASAP"
Pisca: "sure"
@DragonParadox, if I've got the timing correct, it's still evening/night time, right? If we approach the shop as customers, I guess the earliest to do that would be the following morning?
What spells do y'all think we should put in the two Rings of Minor Spell Storing we bought for Cob and Gorok? Three spell levels isn't much, but we have a lot of options for mixing and matching, and it lets us tailor their loadouts for specific missions along with keeping a standard load for general use.
Some of the best options are spells that normally can't be cast on other people because they have a range of Personal. For general use, Mirror Image is always a good choice, and Divine Favor or Shield would pair well with it, one for great offensive power and the other for defense.
Other good ones that come to mind but would be more mission dependent are Raiment of Command (for Kori), See Invisibility, and Blink.
It's also the best way I could come up with for Cob to get a Sense Vitals spell cast on him for great Sneak Attack damage. If Sirim cast one of those into the ring, Could b could use it to increase his Sneak Attack damage by +2d6 at our current level.

"Leatherworker down by where they make fishooks on north isle, as for patchleather and when the fellow says you look a might prosperous for that say 'I just like the look of it'. That'll get you to one of his ghoulrunners as a customer. I'm guessing you can make your own way up from there. Skal should be upstairs most days, he doesn't like to show his ugly mug where the sun can see him. Try not to burn the place down though, they do actually turn out decent leather, only place in the Teeth than can boast it."
I'm eager to get Sirim a new meatsuit now, even if it does mean we lose the advantages of having an Incorporeal, flying telepathic shadow snake as a party member. He's got so much gear waiting for him to wear now.
Once we get back to Andoran, we should see about getting one or two pieces upgraded for use in his Smokeshade form, if it looks like it will take a long time for him to create a new body.
On the plus side, the expense of creating that body shouldn't be an issue now.

-[X] The group will use their new Hats of Disguise to change their identities and apparent races before approaching the shop, and Warty will be returned to statuette form by Mina using Wild Arcana to cast Carry Companion.
I hope Urgor has enough sense to have purchased some gear upgrades now that he's filthy rich, especially a PfE items. Considering how many times he got possessed or mind whammed recently, that should be first on his shopping list, even before beard maintenance products and booze.
@Goldfish should we have backup kidnap plan in place if things turn sour? A mix of Sirim and Cob's plan? Or is that something to do if something comes up in later update?
I assume Iruxi auxiliaries are hanging out in lodgings while we are doing sneaky time.

I don't think we can really plan that yet without knowing the particulars of the situation when we get there, since we're not trying to sneak in. If it needs to happen, we will make it work.
Yeah, the Iruxi are definitely back at the inn. They don't have any business on this sort of mission. Hopefully they're hanging out with Leontas' men, learning Human customs and furthering their fluency in speaking Common. The more they learn, the more help they'll be for their tribe when they return.
@DragonParadox, I've updated everyone's character sheets as well as the Goods and Provisions post.
I moved several magic items that aren't being used over to the Goods and Provisions section. I also removed the full descriptions of a few different magic items from the individual character sheets in favor of linking the item in their equipment list, such as Cob's Anytool. I figured it would make the sheets a bit more legible and less massive compared to what we ended up with in ASWAH.
As I was updating the sheets, I realized I forgot to specify what sort of Knowledge skills the INT boosting items we bought for Cob, Mina, and Sirim would grant. Considering how we're close to a Druid heavy region and Fey are all over the place, I've got Knowledge (Nature) slotted in for Cob and Mina, and figured Knowledge (Dungeoneering) would be a good fit for Mina's second granted skill. Those can just be placeholders for now if ya'll want to vote on different ones. Sirim can't use his INT booster yet, so I haven't assigned the Knowledge skills for him yet.
I haven't included the pirate loot on the character sheets or in the Goods and Provisions section, except for that Circlet of Persuasion. I know we'll be keeping that for Kori. I also haven't adjusted the final tally for our remaining funds after the spending spree.

Cloying Shade (Su) A smokeshade's tendrils deal negative energy damage. A creature that takes damage from a smokeshade's tendril attack is surrounded by a haze of cloying shadow for 1 round. This cloying shade imposes a -2 penalty on attack rolls and Perception skill checks and grants the target concealment from attacks made by opponents that are not adjacent to it. This ability does not give the target concealment against the smokeshade.
Hide in Plain Sight (Su) A smokeshade can use the Stealth skill even while being observed. As long as it is within 10 feet of an area of dim light, a smokeshade can hide itself from view in the open without anything to actually hide behind. A smokeshade can hide in the shadows of other creatures but not in its own shadow.
Misty Form (Ex) A smokeshade's body is composed of a semisolid black mist similar in consistency to thick foam. In addition to the incorporeal subtype, the smokeshade's misty form grants it the amorphous defensive ability. The creature cannot speak or make other sounds beyond a low rumble. Unlike a normal incorporeal creature, a smokeshade cannot enter water or other fluids, and it is always treated as a Tiny creature for the purposes of how wind affects it, even if it increases in size.
Book of Shadows (Ex): Having internalized his knowledge of wizardry in a desperate attempt to escape capture the wizard no longer has need of, nor can he made use of an external spellbook. Due to the added complexity of inscribing entire spells within his shadowy form the wizard requires twice as much time to inscribe a new spell. This class feature replaces Arcane Bond.
Extended Illusions (Su): Any illusion spell you cast with a duration of "concentration" lasts a number of additional rounds equal to 1/2 your wizard level after you stop maintaining concentration (minimum +1 round). At 20th level, you can make one illusion spell with a duration of "concentration" become permanent. You can have no more than one illusion made permanent in this way at one time. If you designate another illusion as permanent, the previous permanent illusion ends.
Binding Darkness (Sp): As a standard action, you cast a weave of shadows at any foe within 30 feet as a ranged touch attack. The shadows entangle your foe for 1 round plus 1 additional round for every five wizard levels you possess. In conditions of bright light, this duration is halved (minimum 1 round). A creature entangled by your shadows has concealment from those without darkvision or the ability to see in darkness, and other creatures likewise have concealment relative to it.

Mythic Spellcasting: You can learn a number of Mythic spells equal to your tier and can expend Mythic Power when casting them to enhance the results. Every time you gain a new tier, you can select an additional mythic spell.
Curse & Drawbacks:
Weight of Smoke (Ex): Cannot make use of any equipment that is not specially designed for him, even Ghost touch weapons cannot be technically used by a smokeshade as it does not impinge upon the material, rather it is but smoke and shadow. Additionally the smokeshade wizard cannot use any item creation spells that require interactions with material reality
Paranoid (Ex): Anyone who attempts an aid another action of any type to assist you must succeed at a DC 15 check instead of the normal DC 10 check.
Warded Against Nature (Su): Animals do not willingly approach within 30 feet of you, unless you or the animal's master succeeds at a DC 20 Handle Animal, Ride, or wild empathy check. Animal companions, familiars, and mounts granted by your class abilities are immune to this effect.

Abductor BeastFigurine Description: This strange statuette is unlike any beast seen on the surface of Golarion, breeding a nagging fear in those who walk under the light soon to avert their gazes. They have never experienced those tendrils first hand. Ability: Same as Serpentine Eagle Figurine (Greater Power Usable 8 hour/Month in one hour increments)
Altar of Mind Flame Description: A collection of brass and crystalline knobs that can produce hot focused flame excellent for cooking and alchemical work, though it has far too many knobs and canisters of gas, all marked with obscure occult symbols to serve only that purpose. Under witch sight it glows in colors other than the primary auras of magic Ability: ???
Cloak of Human Guise
Aura faint illusion; CL 1st Description: This plain cloak alters the wearer's appearance similarly to a hat of disguise, but only to the extent that it conceals or alters the wearer's nonhuman physical traits so the creature appears fully human. Any feature that is plausibly human remains. The wearer has no control over the specific guise, and those familiar with his normal appearance can recognize him in his human guise.
Cloak of the Hedge Wizard Description: Patched together from dozens of different materials and inscribed with snippets of spells in almost as many tongues. Drawing the cloak over one's head allows simple mage-sight, which can be briefly sharpened to look for more particular treasures. Ability:Cloak of the Hedge Wizard (Divination)
Crystal Staff:
Description: Seemingly carved and polished from a single piece of blue-green crystal, the same color as the ghost's vessel, this staff answers to neither your hand nor Mina's
Ability: ???
Druidcraft Talisman: Description: This simple wooden bangle carved in the shape of a spiral looks to have been carved with simple stone tools, or perhaps even claws. Ability: Only functions within Forest or Swamp areas. While in those areas, the wearer gains a +1 Resistance bonus on all saves and animals, even trained ones, have to make a DC 11 Will save to attack user, unless they attack the animal first.
Gem of Foe's Pyre: Pried from the work of ancient dwarf artisanship this gem once had the power to summon a large fire elemental to protect the hold in which it had been forged. Through crude enchantments best left unmentioned the gemstone can still summon this protector, but filled with loss and rage. The elemental may only attack one target against which it is directed on conjuring which it must be allowed to consume utterly or else it will turn on the summoner with its full ferocity until destroyed. If it is instead destroyed it returns to the stone quiescent (1/day)
Looter'sSatchel Description: A large leather bag marked with smoldering runes and a few fades spotches of what might have once been blood before an alchemical cleaning Ability: The satchel functions as a bag of holding (type I). Additionally, as long as the satchel is not overloaded, the bearer can hold it over an adjacent creature that is dead or unconscious and speak a command word. When the command word is spoken, the satchel removes any magic items from the creature's person (such as magic weapons and armor, potions, scrolls, and wondrous items) and deposits them into the bag. This process takes 1 uninterrupted round. If the bearer moves into a different space while the satchel is gathering items in this way, no items are moved into the satchel and the bearer must start the process over. If the satchel would become overloaded from the creature's magic items, it transports as many magic items as it can, from smallest to largest, until it would become overloaded, at which point it stops gathering items. CL 9th Weight 15 lbs.; Aura moderate conjuration
Pendant of the Third Scroll Description: Forged of humble tin this amulet bears the mark of Iori, usually found in the possession of those who take up the path of the wandering sage in his image. According to Triss it's hollow, containing prayer scrolls written in an impossibly fine hand, though she has never tried to take them out. Ability:AgileAmulet of Mighty Fists +1
Robes of the Veiled Lord
Description: This silk robe, fine as anything one would find in the markets of Almas or Augustana seems to have been woven with an underweave of crimson thread eternally wet with blood. So long as a sorcerer feeds it some of their blood the robe will aid them in battle
Ability: Enables a sorcerer to add the effects of her 1st-level bloodline power to spells she casts. As a swift action before casting a spell, the wearer expends one use of her 1st-level bloodline power and selects one target of the spell to be affected by that bloodline power. If the spell allows a saving throw, a successful save against the spell means the bloodline power deals half damage (if it normally deals hit point damage) or is negated (if it does not). The robe can be used up to three times per day.
Seal of Infernal Judgement Description: This ring is made of red gold of a tint bloodier than most, set with a single ruby cut into a pentagon shape
Abilities:
+2 Enhancement Bonus to Reflex Saves
The wearer may use Arcane Mark at will, but only on objects and willing creatures (The mark is the glyph on the ring)
Sleeping Cocon:
Description: Appearing less like something that has been sown of silk and more like the cocoon of a man-sized insect this sleeping bag seems 'perfect' from the inside, allowing in neither hot, nor cold, noise nor distraction
Ability: While in this heavy sleeping bag, the owner suffers no harm from being in a hot or cold environment. It can exist comfortably in conditions between –50 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit without having to make Fortitude saves. Any of the creature's equipment in the sleeping bag is likewise protected. The user can also choose to use the bag to nullify sound while they rest.
The bag doesn't provide any protection from fire or cold damage, nor does it protect against other environmental hazards such as smoke, lack of air, and so forth.
Spellguard Bracers Aura faint abjuration; CL 4th Description: Made of some manner of blue scaled leather dyed blue and decorated with star-shaped studs, these bracers are two light to be armor yet still meant for those who wade into battle Abilities
+2 bonus on concentration checks made to cast defensively.
The wearer can choose to roll a concentration check to cast defensively twice and take the better result (3/Day)
Symbiote Mask (x8) Appearance: Appearing as the unusual admixture of cephalopod and jellyfish, these odd living breathing apparatus recall the works of Drow Flesh-smiths, though the slow blinks of their many eyes and the playful waves they exhibit when sated certainly do not match the temperament of those warped and tormented beasts. Ability: Grant the user the Amphibious Universal Monster Rule. It cannot be dispelled and is not affected by the anti-magic fields

There's definitely some vendor-trash in our equipment, even from before the pirates.
Not that selling it makes such a big difference to our total values at this point, but it should still be done.
We are not Viserys to let a collection of dozens of items rest in our hoard armories until some baby-adventurer with the right skillset to make use of them shows up.
Can you put the Writ of Free Trade under documents as well?
I don't know if travel supplies need to be counted at our level and wealth. The only one item we really need to be on that list are outfits. Speaking of which, a bunch of noble's outfits or whatever its equivalent is that we aquired for Kori, Mina and Cob to meet the governor are not on the list.
@DragonParadox, I've updated everyone's character sheets as well as the Goods and Provisions post.
I moved several magic items that aren't being used over to the Goods and Provisions section. I also removed the full descriptions of a few different magic items from the individual character sheets in favor of linking the item in their equipment list, such as Cob's Anytool. I figured it would make the sheets a bit more legible and less massive compared to what we ended up with in ASWAH.
As I was updating the sheets, I realized I forgot to specify what sort of Knowledge skills the INT boosting items we bought for Cob, Mina, and Sirim would grant. Considering how we're close to a Druid heavy region and Fey are all over the place, I've got Knowledge (Nature) slotted in for Cob and Mina, and figured Knowledge (Dungeoneering) would be a good fit for Mina's second granted skill. Those can just be placeholders for now if ya'll want to vote on different ones. Sirim can't use his INT booster yet, so I haven't assigned the Knowledge skills for him yet.
I haven't included the pirate loot on the character sheets or in the Goods and Provisions section, except for that Circlet of Persuasion. I know we'll be keeping that for Kori. I also haven't adjusted the final tally for our remaining funds after the spending spree.

I'll just replace it with a gouge that says if you are supplied in general or not, after all you can technically run out of food even if you have money, but most of it will be abstracted.
