The Ice Rod is a magical item which can be used to produce an offensive spell-like effect. An Ice Rod appears as a scepter, usually comparable in length to the wielder's arm, colored blue, with a dimly-glowing blue gem at its tip.
To activate rod, the user merely swings it while focusing his magic energy through it. From the rod's tip will launch a small, compact orb of magical ice--size comparable to a Hylian's head--which shoots forward with velocity comparable to a fastball and force comparable to a strong punch. This ball of frost freezes the impacted surface, if the target is freezeable, then immediately vanishes. When aimed horizontally, the projectile can reach up to 30 feet (or 9 meters) before striking level ground.
Normally, the wielder can use the Ice Rod's magical effect once every 20 seconds. The rod will not function until its energy is recharged.
