Water Blessing Borked?

The crone, if memory serves, cannot wear armor. Granted, she has something like four misc slots, but still -- elemental immunities, good prot, etherealness, missile protection, magic resistance, luck will be hard to balance.
A lot of effects could be gained from casting spells, but that'll take up slots in your script and in addition may not occur fast enough if the opponent has accurate long-range attacks or can fly. These spells also can't protect against Seeking Arrow, Fires from Afar, etc -- for those you need gear or dome spells.

I agree that the Frost Father seems rather unattractive. The only good reason I've thought of to take him as opposed to any of the other Rainbow Mage candidates is if you're playing a cold based nation and want the inherent cold resistance. It'd be a pity if you set some Niefel Giants to bodyguard your Arch Mage and then watched their chill effect kill him.
