Ice dragons are creatures of extreme cold, their survival dependent on maintaining a low core temperature. Their delicate, keratin-based scales resemble those of birds, often translucent and shimmering under sunlight. A glossy, waterproof coating insulates their bodies, preserving their internal chill and offering limited protection against external heat. While not heavily armored, they’re quite slippery.

Frostbite: Their fangs are encased in magically enhanced ice, delivering bites that cause immediate frostbite and numbness, rapidly freezing tissue upon contact.

Blizzard: They can manipulate weather conditions to summon anything from light snow flurries to violent, howling blizzards, reducing visibility and sapping the strength of those caught within.

Ice Formations: By drawing moisture from the air, they can create intricate crystalline ice structures, forming barriers, weapons, or environmental traps.

Hollow Frost: The dragon imbues an area with cursed ice that continues to sap heat even after the initial freezing. The ground, walls, and even air remain unnervingly cold, causing exhaustion, disorientation, and gradual hypothermia for anyone lingering too long.

Ice Breath: A concentrated breath attack that releases an icy mist filled with microscopic, razor-sharp ice particles. This mist can cause frostburn on exposed skin, cloud vision, and damage respiratory systems if inhaled.
