Arcane botanical study by Sage Meridian of the Azure Tower

Classification: Elemental Flower
Habitat: Eternal glaciers and frozen wastes
Rarity: Rare

Description

Crystalline and beautiful, the Frostrose grows in the deepest cold where lesser plants would shatter. Each petal is formed of living ice, yet the flower possesses warmth at its heart - a paradox that defies natural law. It chimes softly in the wind.

Magical Properties

Used in creating potions of cold resistance and preservation magic. Items treated with Frostrose essence resist decay and aging. The flower is also essential for certain cryomantic rituals and the creation of ice elementals.

Harvesting Notes

The flower melts if brought to temperate climates without magical preservation. Harvest during the deepest part of winter for maximum potency. The chiming can attract ice elementals - harvest quickly.
