Notes

  • When the ice created by this attack melts, it leaves behind a water surface that lasts indefinitely.
  • The spell save difficulty class for this action is strength, which means a consistent way to increase spell save dc for the summon variant is to give them strength-altering potions such as the elixir of Hill Giant strength or the elixir of Cloud Giant strength.
