Monstrous Mondays - Snow Golem (DP&D)

For Monster Monday, Tim over at The Other Side Blog posted Swords & Wizardry stats for Snow Golems. He told me to feel free to do a DP&D version. I decided to do so, but I did a very different take, inspired by the B horror flick, Jack Frost
Whether created through magic or science gone wrong, snow golems are a frosty constructs inhabited by the souls of malicious individuals.

Snow Golem
Armor Class: 12                        Attack Damage: Icicle 1d6
Hit Dice: 4                                  Special: Cold Aura, Damage Immunity
Move: 12/24 (over ice)               Bonus: +2 to hit
Attack: 1 per round                    HDE: 4

Snow golems are so cold that any creature within 5' of them takes 1 point of damage on their turn, In addition they are immune to all non-heat based damage. You can cut or smash them, but they simply reform. Melting them is the only way to truly dispatch them.

    1. The movie was really cheesy but I thought it would bring a nice challenge to a game. Instead of just whittling hit points, the players have to think and problem solve to stop him.
