Welcome
Deep Freeze in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Deep Magic Volume 1
Deep Freeze
4-level Evocation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range/Area: 60ft.
Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material
Materials: a piece of ice or quartz
Duration: Concentration, 1 minute
Attack/Save: DEX Save
Damage/Effect: Cold
You send a blast of deep cold at a creature, dealing 4d8 cold damage to it and encasing it in ice. An encased creature is grappled and takes an extra 2d8 cold damage at the start of its turn every round it remains encased. If the target of this spell makes a successful Dexterity saving throw, it takes half the damage and none of the extra damage and is not encased in ice, but the ice that clings to its body reduces its speed by 15 feet (to a minimum speed of 5 feet) until it takes an action to remove the ice. A grappled target can take an action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC, breaking free of the ice on a success. Alternatively, another creature within 5 feet of the target can make a Strength check on its turn, freeing the creature on a success. The ice can also be attacked. It has AC 12, 10 hit points, and vulnerability to fire damage.
At higher levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 4th. Available for: Sorcerer, Wizard with Winter Specialization
