A frostmare appears as a large semi-transparent, blue-white horse with a mane and tail of animate ice. Its eyes glow a bright white, and the area around it is chilled. Elemental Steed. A frostmare is created through a 1-hour ritual requiring the conjure minor elementals spell, a pool of water at least 10 feet long, 5 feet wide and 3 feet deep, and a diamond worth at least 300 gp. The water and diamond are consumed leaving behind a large crystal called a frost-heart. The frost-heart summons forth the frostmare, and if the frost-heart is destroyed, the frostmare is destroyed as well. The frost-heart has 10 hit points, an AC of 14, and if it is melded into your form (through wildshape, etc.) it stays visible as a targetable weakpoint of some sort. Loyal to the Holder. The frostmare serves whoever holds the frost-heart that created it. As such, many spellcasters create frostmares and sell the frost-hearts to nobles and criminals. Similarly, anyone that can claim a frost-heart earns the services of the frostmare that it is bound to. Frost-hearts that exit the plane of existence of their frostmare instantly deactivate, dismissing the frostmare until someone picks it up again. Elemental Nature. A frostmare doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep. |
