Frost
From SCross
Frost
The Ice Prince watches over the Freezing Constellation from his crystal throne, largely doing whatever he pleases within his realm. Save for the occasional journey to Blizzana (and those forays to Gaia demanded of him by summoners' pacts), he is typically found here. He is more overweening than any earthly monarch, and is liable to lash out at even the slightest perceived insult. However, his ego is a weakness, as he is susceptible to flattery and those who appeal to his whims.
He dwells within the great Icy asteroid at the centre of the Southern Cross constellation, Hanging in the air above Blizzana, realm of Ice and snow. Frost is the son of Shiva and a Prince of Blizzana and demands the respect due a Prince.

Spell
The summoner can call upon Frost's influence, spending an action and 10 MP. When the summoner's next action comes up, it is immediately expended, and Frost arrives to freeze the battlefield over. For the duration of the scene, a thick sheet of ice covers the ground. Any person attempting to move over the ground must achieve 2 successes per square moved on a +check Dexterity+Athletics+Athletics/Acrobatics (geomancers may add Terrain's-Blessing to this check), or else spend an additional 200 ATB charge per square moved. Those with Ice-Summon or Ice-Affinity of 15 or higher, or Terrain's-Blessing of 25, are exempt from this check, as well as anybody opting to fly. This spell is distinct from the Southern-Cross component, which must be purchased separately.
Prerequisites
Archetype-Summon 10, Ice-Summon 20 to obtain a pact.
In addition, any Fire-based components possessed by the potential summoner must be balanced by an equal or greater rating in an equivalent Ice-based component.
