Ice
You point a finger at the creature that dealt damage to you, causing it to become momentarily wreathed in ice. The target creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, it takes 3d8 cold damage and has its speed reduced to 0 until the end of its next turn. On a success, the creature takes only half the damage.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell by spending Mana points equal to a 3rd-level spell or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each level above 2nd. When cast as a 5th-level spell or higher, the cold damage becomes glacial.
