{{Quote|source = [[ProjectGorgon:Landri the Cold]]|
Fire Mages think that ice is somehow a byproduct of reversing Fire spells. We let them believe that... it keeps them out of our way. But Ice Magic is vast and terribly powerful!

== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==
[[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]] uses devastating attacks, combined with the randomness of weather and the freezing abilities of ice to create a deadly skill with medium-high power cost. Like other research based magics, [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]] abilities are learned through the sacrifice of ingredients to research spells.
=== In-Game Description ===
A specialization of Fire Magic that focuses entirely upon lowering temperature instead of raising it. It has protective and controlling abilities as well as offensive abilities.
=== Training {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} ===
* [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]] is taught by [[ProjectGorgon:Landri the Cold]] after completing a [[ProjectGorgon:Into the Kur Tower|quest]] inside [[ProjectGorgon:Kur Tower]]. To begin this quest, a Prodigy should look for a warning sign posted directly inside the dungeon. One must also have Level 25 [[ProjectGorgon:Fire Magic]] or Level 25 [[ProjectGorgon:Rabbit]].
* [[ProjectGorgon:Ichin the Ice Master]] can unlock Levels 51-70 [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]], and teaches the associated recipes.
* [[ProjectGorgon:Bendith the Banished]] will have Levels 71-80 frozen into your brain.
* Levels 81-90 are unlocked by [[ProjectGorgon:Reinath]] deep beneath [[ProjectGorgon:Povus]].

== Recipe Lists ==
{{:{{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}/Recipes}}
== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Mechanics ==
=== Fairies ===
[[ProjectGorgon:Races#Fairies|Fairies]] learn most Ice Magic (not the [[ProjectGorgon:Glowing Sphere]]'s Ice Veins 3B) automatically from leveling up Ice Magic.  See [[ProjectGorgon:Ice_Magic/Level_Up_Rewards|Ice Magic Level Up Rewards]].
=== Research Ingredients ===
[[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]] can be viewed as expensive due to the ingredients required for spell research recipes. Each recipe unlocks a selection of abilities in a random order.

If you complete ''Ice Magic Research Level 25'', you will learn one of six abilities (Blizzard 2, Chill 2, Cryogenic Freeze, Ice Armor 3, Ice Lightning 3, Tundra Spikes 2). Complete ''Ice Magic Research Level 25'' six times to learn all associated abilities.
: {{Item|Ice Core}} - Looted from various ice-themed creatures creatures, particularly elementals ([[ProjectGorgon:Cold Elemental]]), frozen slimes ([[ProjectGorgon:Ice Slick]]), and undead ice mages (Skeleton Ice Guard).
: {{Item|Tundra Lichen}} - Harvested from the northern hills and shorefront of [[ProjectGorgon:Kur Mountains]]. Requires level 37 [[ProjectGorgon:Foraging]].
: {{Item|Orcish Spell Pouch}} - Looted from [[ProjectGorgon:Orcish Thaumaturge]] and similar spellcaster orc.
: {{Item|Frost Nib}} - Obtained from bartering with [[ProjectGorgon:The Sand Seer]] in [[ProjectGorgon:Ilmari]].
: {{Item|Glowy Yellow Crystal}} - Collected from nodes in set points around [[ProjectGorgon:Gazluk]]. Requires level 45 [[ProjectGorgon:Mining]].
: {{Item|Fairy Iceheart}} - Looted from Winter Court fairies in the [[ProjectGorgon:Fae Realm]], including [[ProjectGorgon:Winter Court Scout]] and [[ProjectGorgon:Winter Court Soldier]].

=== Weapons ===
===== Weapons enabling Ice Magic for humanoid races=====
Much like [[ProjectGorgon:Fire Magic]], not all staffs are produced with the proper runes to handle the use of [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]]. Casting [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]] requires the use of a [[ProjectGorgon::Category:Items/IceStaff|Ice Staff]].
<dpl>
  category   = Items/IceStaff
 notcategory = Items/Head
  reset      = categories
  columns = 3
  mode = userformat
  format = ,\n* {{Item|%PAGE%}},,
  allowcachedresults=true
</dpl>
===== Weapons enabling Ice Magic for Beast Forms =====
[[ProjectGorgon:Rabbit]]s have the potential to wield [[ProjectGorgon:Ice Magic]], if they are able to get their paws on a {{Item|Great Familiar Controller}} or similar headband.
<dpl>
  category   = Items/IceStaff
 category = Items/Head
  reset      = categories
  columns = 3
  mode = userformat
  format = ,\n* {{Item|%PAGE%}},,

== Trivia ==
Up until the [[ProjectGorgon:Game_updates/2017-06-09|June 9, 2017 Update]], first learning Fire Magic was the only path to unlock Ice Magic. That update "Changed the requirements for unlocking Ice Magic; it can now be completed with either the quest and Fire Magic 25, or the quest and [redacted new skill] 25." The special event that weekend was the first opportunity to obtain Bunny Juice and Un-Bunny Juice.
