Link: Sheer Cold
The blade of this battleaxe is made from a shard of the glacier to the east of Tanadur and never melts. Attacks with the axe deal cold damage instead of slashing, and you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
When you roll a 20 on an attack roll with this weapon, the ground in the direction of the target in either a 15-foot cone or 30-foot-long, 5-foot-wide line (your choice) is covered in a layer of slick ice for 1 minute, making it difficult terrain. When a creature enters this area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity saving throw or fall prone. In addition, the original target of the attack must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or be restrained by ice until the start of your next turn. The restrained target can use an action to make a DC 15 Strength check. On a success, the target is freed.
Versatile.This weapon can be used with one or two hands. A damage value in parentheses appears with the property—the damage when the weapon is used with two hands to make a melee attack.
