'''Ozocubu's Refrigeration''' is a level 6 [[Ice Magic]] spell. It deals a fair amount of cold damage to all targets in [[LOS]], including invisible monsters, submerged sea creatures, and you. It has a 50% chance to [[slow]] cold-blooded monsters. This spell may also shatter your potions if it deals more than 0 damage, so drop them or at least wear [[conservation]] first. It works nicely in [[branches]] such as the [[Slime Pits]], [[Snake Pit]], [[Elven Halls]], and in [[Ziggurat]]s. Taking damage from this spell will not necessarily wake sleeping monsters.

Ozocubu's Refrigeration is a level 6 Ice Magic spell which chills all targets within your line of sight (including invisible targets, submerged opponents, and you), dealing moderate cold damage. This is entirely unavoidable, has a 50% chance of slowing cold blooded targets, and strangely enough does not always awaken sleeping monsters. Unfortunately, you may be slowed if playing a draconian without rC+, and the cold freezes the contents of all potions in the area, rendering you unable to quaff anything until several turns after casting the spell.
