[QUOTE="HeinorNY, post: 4041844, member: 16178"] But they are not "pure coldness" in the sense of a swirling and incorporeal cold energy moving around. They are solid creatures that generate intense cold. Make a paralel with the Fire Archon: "Although made of transparent and flickering flames, and apparently empty of organs, a fire archon has a solid form. Those brave enough to have touched a fire archon's body describe it as being like holding a boiling bag of writhing snakes. A fire archon held in this way is certainly very hot, but it does not truly burn. The archon can set things ablaze with its body, but this seems to require some concentration " We can inferre that an Ice Archon also has a solid body that, whatever it is made of, when touched is "certainly very cold" but not cold enough to hurt the toucher. The archon needs to concentrate to generate the freezing cold. So whatever his body is made of, it's not made of "pure coldness" and is certainly not even near 0ºK, probably 0ºC. So the Ice Archon is like a walking freezer. You can't hurt the coldness it generates but you can hurt the solid part in it that generates the cold. [/QUOTE]
