We need 2x +20 point Lenses, 2x +85 point Lenses, 2x +145 point Lenses and 1x +210 point Lenses.

Make a Frosty the Snowman lens. Requires an old silk hat to remain animate.

I have an alternate idea for a Snowman (other than a Lens for the Elemental), which I will keep under my hat just for the moment - but I will remember that idea!

You're welcome!

I will be updating the Elemental Post with suitable Lenses when I work out the correct powers/stats; and as suggested above - I do have another Cold/Frost/Ice themed 'package' of things to post when I sort those out.

I've updated the Elementalist and Elemental entries:

Added Temperature Tolerance to the available list of abilities, so that an Elementalist can be comfortable when dealing with Elementals which can substantially lower the surrounding temperature!

Added 7 lenses to support Elementals of higher point value, and 5 icy abilities (4 of which are from or directly based on sample abilities in GURPS Powers)

No comments or thoughts?

Does this seem like it's in keeping with the equivalent things in DF7,9 and 11?

I was a little disappointed in myself that I ended up using the sample Cold/Ice powers from GURPS Powers quite so closely for the Elemental Lens Powers, but they are really good.

I was quite proud of my +20 point 'Snowball' Lens. It's a little silly, but I thought it was fun. Would a large rolling snowball using slam and attack for 4d work in DF?

Some feedback would be appreciated. I have another Cold/Frost/Ice mini-project I'm fiddling with in the background, so knowing whether this Dungeon Fantasy Clerics/Elementalist stuff was good, bad, right, wrong, consistent, etc would be helpful.

Thanks.

Personally, I think it's awesome. Now, since my players are disinclined to play elementalists, and we already have two specialist clerics, I won't be using it for some time. Now, I might add some ice elementalist NPCs...

Personally, I always felt that Ice/Cold powers were some of the most interesting yet usually unexplored powers.
