Ice Walk. The dragon can move across and climb icy surfaces without needing to make an ability check. Additionally, difficult terrain composed of ice or snow doesn't cost it extra movement.
Icy Swim. If the dragon is swimming in water, it can freeze the water around it in a 20ft radius circle around it.
Charge. If the dragon moves at least 10 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a gore attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 2d8 bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be pushed up to 10 feet away and knocked prone.
Snow Eater. If there is ice or snow within 5ft of the dragon, it may choose to eat a chunk of ice or snow as an action and gain 1 Cold Breath use.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 2d8 + 4 piercing damage plus 1d8 cold damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 2d6 + 4 slashing damage plus 1d8 cold damage.
Gore. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 1d12 + 4 bludgeoning damage.
Cold Breath (8/Short Rest). The dragon exhales an icy blast in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 6d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Description
A Groncicle is different from most dragons. They prosper in the coldest of climates and prefer fish native to Icestorm Island.
The Groncicle is considered to be a member of the Boulder Class; however, unlike other dragons in this class, it is quite comfortable in water. While these dragons closely resemble their cousins, the Gronckles, their bodies are more streamlined, undoubtedly contributing to their agility in the seas. It is essential that young Viking trainers remember to not underestimate Groncicles. It may initially appear that these dragons lack the ability to cause much harm (barring the fearsome spikes on their chins), but with ice in their veins and liquid nitrogen fire, the Groncicle is not a dragon you would want to cross.
Everything about these dragons remind you of their home – they are icy blue and white in color, the spines on their back look like snowy mountains, and the spikes on their chin resemble icicles. They also have a tendency to freeze the water around them as they swim.
