A swirling column of ice that is somehow animate faces you.  A biting cold mist flows around it to chill you and to sink a numbing dampness deep into your bones.  Moisture condenses from the very air onto the guardian and pale frost collects on its surface only to grow heavy and break free with a cold, brittle sound that echoes like faint mocking laughter.

Hunting strategies

  • Cold guardians can sniff out characters from hiding very easily.
  • Cold guardians do not have any aimable "body parts" (e.g. legs, head), but are often knocked down by normal attacks, making them easy opponents once they are stunned.
  • Cold guardians can only take hitpoint damage; they cannot be killed by a critical prematurely.
