| Cost | Low Cost W5: 30 rupees |
Ice is an offensive spell. To cast ice, the caster swings or thrusts forward a weapon or other instrument, and unleashed from its tip is a small and compact orb of magical ice, comparable in size to a Hylian's head, which shoots forward with velocity comparable to a fastball and force comparable to a strong punch. This ball of ice magically freezes a portion of its target on impact, then immediately vanishes. The projectile can reach up to approximately thirty feet before dissipating.
Normally, the caster can cast Ice once every 90 seconds. With one level of Magic Power, the caster can do so every 30 seconds. With two levels, it can be done every 10 seconds.
Variant
Instead of gaining this treasure as a spell, the user may choose to gain it in the form of a magical item, known as an Ice Rod. 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 use the Ice Rod, the user simply swings it, and the same projectile will be produced as in the Ice spell itself. The same time limitations, based on Magic Power, still apply. Unlike Ice, the Ice Rod is part of the Cane field. [[Category::Treasures with Variants]]
Augment
| No Instrument Required | |
|---|---|
| Additional Cost |
Lowest Cost W5: 10 rupees |
The user can gain the No Instrument Required augment simultaneously with the original treasure for an additional cost, or as a separate treasure at a later time. This augment can only be applied to the Ice spell, not to the Ice Rod. A caster with this augment gains two benefits.
- The caster may choose to launch the projectile from their hand or mouth, rather than from a weapon or instrument.
- The time restrictions on casting Ice may be reduced, as if the user had one more level in Magic Power. If the user already has two levels in Magic Power, the time restriction remains the same.
Trivia
- Spells with a comparable effect include Fire, Wind, Magic Bolt, Holy Bolt, and Shadow Ball.
- The Ice treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in A Link to the Past. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki.
