This spell is a cold-based version of cloudkill, creating a light grey cloud that leaves frost in its wake. It functions just like a cloudkill, except that damage comes from cold, making fire based creatures more vulnerable to the spell (treat them as having 2 fewer Hit Dice, and they automatically take double damage). Creatures who fail their saving throw by 4 or more are encased in a thin layer of ice (about a quarter of an inch). Those who make their saving throws still take appropriate damage (1d10).

	Hit Dice	Fire-Based
	(normal)	Creatures	Saving Throw
	4 or less	6 or less	None: killed instantly
	4+1 to 5+1	6+1 to 7+1	Saving throw versus spell at -4
	5+1 to 6	7+1 to 8	Saving throw versus spell
	6+1 or more	8+1 or more	None: 1d10 damage
			(2d10 for fire based)

Cold based creatures are immune to this spell, and some (like white dragons) might even find it refreshing.
