Artwork for Ice Pillar

Spell

Ice Pillar

Created by Bobbyx

Ice Pillar conjures towering spikes of glacial ice that violently burst forth from the earth in a devastating display of frozen fury. When cast, the ground trembles as jagged columns of crystalline ice erupt in a designated area, capable of piercing through armor and bone alike. The pillars emerge with such force that they can topple structures and hurl creatures into the air, leaving behind a treacherous landscape of razor-sharp frozen shards. Those caught in the spell's area must struggle against the intense cold and risk being impaled or crushed beneath the weight of the ascending ice formations. The spell's duration allows the pillars to remain in place, creating difficult terrain and providing cover for those who survive the initial onslaught. As the magic fades, the pillars slowly melt into pools of frigid water that linger on the battlefield. This formidable spell stands as a testament to the raw power of winter's wrath, capable of turning any ground into a frozen fortress of death.

Effects

When cast, up to 6 pillars of ice erupt in a designated area. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 4d10 piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The area becomes difficult terrain, and the pillars remain for the duration, providing cover. After the spell ends, the pillars melt into pools of water.
