The Path of the Cold One is the Path of Corruption followed by the Krynnish Red-Robed Wizard Traven.
1. Frostmarked: Traven gains Cold Resistance 10.
- Traven's skin has become chalk white, giving him OR +1.
2. Cold One: Traven enjoys all the benefits of the feat Cold One in spite of not having suffered negative energy damage.
- Traven's face has become expressionless, like a bone mask or an icy carving, giving him an additional OR +1.
3. Frostwalker: Traven can move at full speed over nonmagical ice and through nonmagical snow as though these were normal, even ground.
- Traven now leaves a dusting of snow wherever he goes, and his footprints are outlined by ice. He gains an additional OR +1.
4. Winter's Touch: Twice a day, Traven can use a variant version of Vampiric touch as a spell-like ability, with his effective character level as his caster level. The save DC is determined by his Charisma score. Instead of negative energy damage, this spell-like ability deals cold damage.
- Traven has become more susceptible to Fire damage. If he suffers fire-based damage in one round, he suffers half the same amount again in the following round. He may roll any applicable saving throws to reduce damage as normal.
5. Winter Wizard: When preparing his spells for the day, Traven can alter any and all of his damage-dealing spells so they deal Cold-based damage instead of their stated damage type. Spells so modified occupy a spell slot +1 higher than the base spell, and deal damage as though Empowered.
- If Traven now uses spells that cause Fire-based damage, he suffers backlash. Every time Traven casts a spell or uses a spell trigger item that deals Fire-based damage, he suffers half the damage dealt by his attack himself, even if his target or targets manage to avoid damage. Traven may roll saving throws to reduce damage as normal, but suffers half the final amount again in the next round, as outlined under step 4.
