Gel, Frost Ward
- Cost: 50 (or more, for higher level versions)
- Weight: 1/2 lbs.
The gel evaporates away as it absorbs cold damage; any cold damage which makes it past the resistance above 'flakes away' a portion of the gel. When a vial of Frost Gel has absorbed a total of 10 points of cold damage per CL of the item, it is discharged and provides no more protection of any sort. In all cases, Frost Gel expires at the end of your next combat, or after a full night's rest, whichever comes first.
Frost gel does not provide any protection against environmental damage.
Frost ward gel counts as protection from energy for the purpose of stacking multiple cold protection effects. Applying frost ward gel takes 1 minute and must be done out of combat, and it lasts until the end of your next encounter or the end of a full night's rest before losing its potency. Multiple applications of frost ward gel do not stack; applying more while a dose is active merely resets the potential amount of frost damage absorbed to 10 points per CL of the item.
This item cannot be used as ammunition for an Alchemical weapon.
