Description
The arctic-dwelling winter wolf is as large as a dire wolf but has snow-white fur and pale blue eyes, but this creature is a alpha among them. Trapped long ago, by a long forgotten clan of elves within the ring of winter, this creature can now only manifest through the will of its wielder. Due to Zima's cold nature and bitterness at their situation it is rare that it will allow itself to be summoned.
Summoning. Zima can only be summoned by expelling all of the charges from the ring of winter at the coldest point of night. If the ring is destroyed, Zima is freed and is summoned at a random point of the coldest region in the material plane.
Regional Effects. If Zima remains in a region for a week, it begins a perpetual winter in that region. The intensity of the weather varies with their mood. There is always a blizzard when Zima is on the hunt.
