Description
A frigid globe of cold energy streaks from your fingertips to a point of your choice within range, where it explodes in a 60-foot-radius sphere. Each creature within the area must make a Constitution saving throw, taking 10d6 Cold damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one. If the globe strikes a body of water, it freezes the water to a depth of 6 inches over an area 30 feet square. This ice lasts for 1 minute. You can refrain from firing the globe after completing the spell's casting. A small globe about the size of a sling stone cools in your hand. At any time, you or a creature you give it to can throw the globe (to a range of 40 feet) or hurl it with a sling (to the sling's normal range). It shatters on impact, with the same effect as the normal casting of the spell.
