Elemental Ice is the substance from which all other ice derives its properties. This irregular block of ice looks like ordinary frozen water, but no amount of heat can melt it. Elemental Ice, if exposed to the air, cools the area around it, reducing the temperature by one degree per minute until the temperature reaches freezing. Its range is unlimited, though the region cooled grows only at a rate of one foot per minute for an hour, then one foot an hour after that. If it is touched to the skin, it deals 1d4-1 cold damage per round until it is removed.
Shavings of Elemental Ice can be used as the material component for any spell that deals cold damage.
