Cold Snap

Cold Snap is a rare special variant of the Daggers family of weapons. It is a simple melee weapon wielded in one hand. As a finesse weapon, it can benefit from the wielder's Dexterity and not just their Strength. It's a light weapon that anyone can dual-wield without special training. Its design lends itself well to be thrown at enemies as a projectile.

In the steel, you can see small ice formations like bubbles in a bath, and even hear them pop with crickling crackles of forest delight.
