Related as they are to white dragons, these drakes share many habits and facets of their disposition with their draconic cousins. Indeed, just as white dragons are among the most bestial and craven of dragonkind, frost drakes are among the most depraved and openly malicious of the drakes. They are also especially insolent, and are less likely to back down from a flight compared to other drakes. Many frost drakes have met their ends trying to enact cruelties beyond their means, such as singly taking on an entire castle or well-fortified township. Although a frost drake can wreak much destruction on its own, tales of village-dwelling northerners banding together to defend their homes from these rogue menaces are fairly common. A frost drake''s hunting grounds are quite large. Those frost drakes that live upon the permanently frozen peaks of high mountains have been known to swoop down to snatch up prey from the lowlands, leaving frozen swaths of earth from their breath as the only sign of their passing. Their frost-covered scales range from deep royal blue to crisp cyan and sometimes feature sporadic patches of violet. Their hides are thinner than most drakes''; when a frost drake is inhaling in preparation to launch its signature frozen breath, the monster''s ice-blue blood can be seen beneath its scales. **__Recall Knowledge - Dragon__ (__Arcana__)**: DC 23' hp: 115 hp_misc: null immunities: - cold - paralyzed - unconscious items: null knowledge_checks: dc: 23 skills: - Arcana languages: - Draconic level: 7 melee: - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d12+8 type: piercing name: Fangs plus_damage: - formula: 1d6 type: cold to_hit: 17 traits: null - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d10+8 type: bludgeoning name: Tail plus_damage: null to_hit: 17 traits: - reach 10 feet name: Frost Drake perception: 14 proactive_abilities: - action_cost: Two Actions critical_failure: null critical_success: null description: The frost drake makes two Fangs Strikes and one Tail Strike in any order. effect: null effects: null failure: null frequency: null full_description: null generic_description: null name: Draconic Frenzy range: null raw_description: '**Draconic Frenzy** [Two Actions] The frost drake makes two Fangs Strikes and one Tail Strike in any order.' requirements: null success: null traits: null trigger: null - action_cost: Two Actions critical_failure: null critical_success: null description: The frost drake spits a ball of liquid up to 60 feet that explodes into a 20-foot __burst__ cloud of freezing mist.
