To craft the Scroll of Frost Nova, the player must gather rare and exotic components:
Frost Lotus: A rare flower that only grows in the coldest of climates. It can only be found the frozen Everwhite Woods, Frost Woods, Frozen Grove
Elemental Ice: A solid chunk of pure ice imbued with the power of elemental frost. This can be obtained by defeating an ice elemental or by traveling to the coldest coasts of Kalamar.
Arcane Dust: A fine powder created from crushed arcane crystals. It is a byproduct of magical experiments and can be made by destroying a crystal focus.
Scroll of Frostbite: A lesser spell that involves creating a small patch of frost. This is used as a base spell for the more powerful Frost Nova.
Once the components have been gathered, they must be combined in a ritualistic manner over four hours (short rest). The process involves chanting ancient incantations and performing intricate hand gestures. The caster must also make a successful Arcana check (DC 14), to ensure that the spell is imbued properly into the scroll.
