Very nice, fun for the whole family: Icy Prison is spooktacular!

I'll have you an update ASAP (a little behind with my schoolwork ATM)

Expect a new and nicer index this time around.
 

Immediate reaction when hit by a melee attack, me like but me DM. At least the -5 to attack helps them learn from the folly of their ways.
 

Yep, basically their weapon and/or arm freeze when they hit it... and makes it harder for them to hit it two rounds in a row. Also lets it maneuver around to affect more folks.
 

I think I'm tempted to switch icy prison to more like my original thought: have it have some hit points and block line of effect, instead of just being another save ends. Forces you to deal with it (or someone turns into a block of ice)
 


A wall of ice formed by a breathweapon that could split the party up (push?) would synergize nicely with the movement imparing effects.

"Wait...I have to go around and have a movement of 2?!"

Might be a bit cumbersome to implement though.
 

Yeah, I suspect the dragon will poof up to 5th-7th level when I get a monster manual, but for now 3rd at least makes it possible to try to test it out :)

I might also have to drop an ability or two and have them only on the higher level ones. For solo creatures, my instinct is to give more abilities so that the combat doesn't turn static, but I still probably need to reign things in.

I suspect a wall of ice like the wizard power would suit the ancient version well, assuming it's not over the top for number of abilities.
 


Whoa.
