This spell coats one creature in magical ice and snow, providing excellent protection from fire until it melts. The recipient is almost totally protected from normal fire - damage from non-magical fire is reduced by 3 points per die (to a minimum of 0 points per die ). Against more powerful magical fire attacks, such as red dragon breath or fire-based spells of 3rd level or more, damage is reduced by 1 point per die ( to a minimum of 1 point per die ).

Any magical fire attack nullifies the icejacket on contact; the spell wards against only one such attack. The icejacket increases the subject's susceptibility to cold-based attacks. The protected creature suffers 1 additional point of damage per die from cold-based attacks such as weapons or spells, and the icejacket ends. The spell can be used offensively, though a target creature receives a saving throw vs. spell to negate the effect. A fire-based creature takes 2d6 points of damage and the ends instantly. Otherwise, the increases the effects of cold to the same degree it protects against fire; thus, an enemy might be frozen in a blizzard. The icejacket can be used for camouflage in snowy conditions, giving a concealed character a +1 bonus to surprise an enemy, or to keep cool in desert climates.

Notes: Very rare spell. Known to be in the Book of Zala (the Lakhraremtola Zalarem).
