This stuff came up recently in an Expired Nyrond Metaregional - NMR 5-08 Fighting the Headwind, my rogue, being so inclined bought ludicrous amounts of the expensive stuff.

Is there any source for this particular fur? any LG related history background etc? is it purely roleplaying (I imagine so) and any ideas as to where to get my hands on some of this info?

My rogue likes to be able to tell people what his fancy new clothes are made of...

There was a favor in Y2 Core module "Amid the Mists and Coldest of Frosts" which grants rights for Argentvorax hunting and trading, potentially earning 50 - 500gp after any Core module (or losing 100gp). My main character has it.

Ok, you're forcing me to really remember here, but I have a dim memory of seeing them written up as a stat block. I'm picturing a white badger with multiple legs (6,8?)

Maybe some obscure 2nd edition adventure?

Maybe I'm hallucinating?

They're actually golden in color...though that was the Aurumvorax.

In which case the Argentvorax is likely to be silver (Aurum=gold, argent=silver)

Actually I have the gathering rights on that and will be glad to sell it to you. Just send the gold and I'll deliver the fur the next time I see you. Trust me on this......

It comes from "the land of the Frost Barbarians"
