Cold Snap is a multi-target warding spell that partially encases targets in ice, inflicting the rooted status effect. This causes a target to have -50 melee AS, -25 ranged AS, -25 DS, and be unable to initiate maneuvers.
If cast a second time against targets that are already affected, the spell completely freezes them, inflicting the immobilized status effect and refreshing the duration. Cold Snap has standard multi-target disabling spell targeting and so will prefer targets that have not yet been rooted. However, if it is cast using CHANNEL, it will first seek out already rooted targets to freeze them.
If a target is drenched from Minor Water (903 or 518) soaking, or if the spell is cast in a watery room, the affected target(s) suffer -25 penalty to Target Defense (TD).
Targets fully frozen in ice will have a chance, based on Elemental Lore, Water, to shatter when an applicable bolt spell is CHANNELed.
If a target is already affected by Cold Snap, a number of subsequent casts (based on water lore, see below) of Minor Water will be converted to Minor Cold.
If an affected target receives any fire damage (i.e. from 906, 908, 111, etc), the effect ends (since it melts the ice) and the target receives a steam critical, similar to how trolls react to fire.
Non-corporeal targets are better able to defend against the spell, and thus receive a TD bonus of creature level/10. Creatures that are made of fire or emanate heat are immune to Cold Snap.

- PREP 512 | CHANNEL to attempt to immobilize all targets that are rooted (for second cast), targets that are already rooted will be warded first
- PREP 512 | EVOKE to cast this spell, potentially targeting both creatures and other player characters
