The Cold Goddess

Auril

(pronounced: /ˈɔːrɪl/ AW-rill), also known as The Cold Goddess, The Frostmaiden, Icedawn, and the Goddess of Winter, is a fickle, vain, and evil deity, who is primarily venerated out of fear. She is most powerful in those regions that are affected by deep winters.

Warlocks do not usually seek her out intentionally, but are usually found by her in times of desperation. Upon forming a pact with Auril, she freezes your heart, causing your body to fall into a state of frost-bite, turning your skin icy blue, your hands and feet black, your hair a stark white, and eyes the color of ice. You will never feel warm again, but you find the cold never bothers you.

Auril lets you choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.

Frost Maiden’s Blessing

Starting at 1st level, Auril grants you resistance to cold damage. Becoming one with the cold, you also learn the cantrip Ray of Frost.

Frostbite

Starting at 6th level, your frost-bitten body has developed it's own form of defense. When a melee strike hits you, the attacker makes a Constitution save against your warlock spell save DC, on a fail, their movement speed is reduced by half for 3 rounds.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

Frozen Reflection

Starting at 10th level, if you are hit with an attack dealing cold damage, you can use your reaction to roll 1d20 + your spell attack modifier, if you roll higher than the attack that hit you, you reflect the damage back onto the attacker.

Mantle of Frost

Starting at 14th level, you strike your foes with the same icy chill that encases your heart. As an action you can unleash the cold within you, causing every creature within a 30ft radius to make a Constitution save against your Warlock spell save DC. On a failed save, they are frozen in place (incapacitated) for one minute.

Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
