Description
Monster Name:
Frostmane, The Winter's Grace

Description:
Frostmane is the embodiment of winter's majesty, a creature carved from the heart of an ancient glacier. Its presence brings the chill of the far north, with a beauty that is as awe-inspiring as it is cold. The unicorn's horn is said to be made of the purest ice, capable of channeling the wintry magic of the northern lights. Despite its solid ice form, Frostmane moves with an elegance that belies its frozen nature, each step a whisper in the snow.

Lore/Background:
Legend speaks of the Ice Unicorns as the children of winter itself, born from the first frost and the last whisper of falling snowflakes. Frostmane is revered as a guardian of the winter realms, a creature that weaves the tapestry of snow-covered forests and frozen lakes with its every breath. Ancient tales tell of its power to quell the fiercest blizzards and guide lost travelers to safety.

Habitat:
Frostmane thrives in the coldest environments, from snowbound forests to icy tundras. It prefers the solitude of these wintry realms, where the snow never melts, and the ice never thaws.

Behavior & Tactics:
While elusive and generally peaceful, Frostmane can summon the forces of winter to defend itself. It can unleash shards of ice from its horn, create blinding snowstorms, or freeze the ground beneath an attacker's feet. It is also known to be a swift runner, capable of traversing icy terrains with ease.

Diet:
The Ice Unicorn sustains itself on the magic of winter, absorbing the energy of ice and snow. It is also said to feed on the frozen berries and icicles that hang from the branches of winter-bare trees.

Reproduction:
The creation of a new Ice Unicorn is a rare event, occurring only during the most intense auroras of the winter solstice. When the auroral lights touch the snow, they are said to imbue it with life, and from this convergence of light and ice, a new Frostmane is born.

Unique Abilities & Traits:
Frostmane's horn has the magical ability to freeze anything it touches and to purify water. The creature is also immune to cold and can communicate via telepathy with those pure of heart who can withstand the chill of its presence.

Variants:
There are stories of other variants of Ice Unicorns, such as the Duskmane, which roams the twilight hours, its form a darker hue of ice, and the Dawnmane, a radiant figure seen only in the light of the rising sun.

Trivia/Fun Facts:
The appearance of Frostmane is considered an omen of a long and harsh winter, but also a sign of the enduring beauty of the season. Alchemists and wizards seek the frost flowers left in its wake, as they are key ingredients in potions of endurance and spells of frost. Those who witness Frostmane are said to be blessed with a year of good fortune.
