This spell surrounds a weapon or launcher held by the caster with an aura of freezing cold. It will not affect weapons which are otherwise subject to special enchantments.

Freezing Aura is a level 2 Charms/Ice Magic spell which temporarily adds the freezing brand to any unbranded, non-artifact weapon you currently wield. When cast on a melee weapon, this increases your damage output significantly, especially against targets vulnerable to ice such as crimson imps and cold-blooded foes. When cast on a ranged weapon, it will deal instead convert 100% of its damage to cold damage. Unwielding the weapon will cause the brand to be lost.

Using a scroll of brand weapon while under the effect of this spell will make the brand permanent.
