Description: This arrow is fletched with feathers that are crystal clear and shimmer like icicles under sunlight. The arrowhead is made of a dense, magically hardened ice that remains frozen at all times. Upon striking a target, the arrow releases a burst of freezing cold.
Properties:
- Chill Strike: On a hit, the target takes normal arrow damage plus an additional 1d6 cold damage as the icy arrowhead shatters, releasing its frosty energy.
- Freeze Blast: When the arrow strikes a target or a hard surface, it bursts, releasing a wave of icy energy. Creatures within 5 feet of the impact point must succeed on a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked prone due to the slick ice and forceful blast of cold air.
- Ammunition: This arrow can be used with any bow. Like many magical arrows, it is destroyed after use, its magic expended.
Lore: Originally crafted by a frost sorceress during a siege to combat the fiery defenses of her foes, these arrows were designed to sap warmth and freeze the enemy's movements. They are said to contain the essence of a winter spirit, which explains their unyielding cold.
Usage Tips: The Arrow of Ice is especially effective against fire-based creatures or in environments where cold can be a strategic advantage. It can also be used to create temporary barriers or hazards on the battlefield due to its freezing effects.
Notes: Damage: Cold
