HALP! Is there a winter / ice mystery for oracles?


Advice


Helping a buddy make a character in a few hours and he wants something ice-related. He's new to the game and we need a healer. Thus, is there any oracle mystery that's ice/winter/cold related? Thanks for any help!

*EDIT: If not I'll just suggest the waves mystery to him. I just could have sworn I saw a winter mystery at some point.

I'm sorry I don't follow. Do you mean there's a winter mystery in Blood of Dragons?


Ah okay found it! Thanks all! (I love these boards).

Those are the mysteries. But you are welcome. Hope your friend has fun playing.

I seriously considered making a Winter Oracle for a bit (you know, to balance out my Fire Cleric), but decided not to - the main issue with the Winter Mystery, in my book, is simply that the Cleric/Oracle spell list doesn't (presently) offer enough cold spells to back it up well (that, and the 7th-level Mystery spell is rendered redundant by the Final Revelation, yet by RAW, you still can't trade it out).

I certainly don't mean to be a wet blanket, though; if this is a home/non-Society game, I would encourage you, as DM, to both change the 7th-level Mystery spell or allow it to be traded out if the character reaches 20th level, and even allow the character to access a few cold spells from the Druid list (as normal Spells Known selections, not bonus spells).


Could be worse, winter at least gets a few mystery spells that work with freezing spells...waves gets only wall of ice hah. Was said during an ancient post I think in APG playtest that they'd add more cold for 'em but never happened

As far as the Waves Mystery goes, I would have preferred they go with 'water,' but NOT 'ice.'


well they stuck freezing spells in there, and remember waves came out well before winter


I think my buddy will be quite happy with his winter oracle. Again, I really appreciate the feedback.
