Risia

Risia , called the Plane of Ice , is a plane that is layer upon layer of snow and ice with a constant blizzard raining down new layers of sleet snow and ice from a dark grey-clouded sky. [2]

Description

Risia is a plane composed primarily of ice. The very atmosphere freezes the lungs and steals away the breath. The average temperature on Risia is 0 (−18 ). On any given day, there is a 50% chance of extreme weather in the form of snow, sleet, hail, or a blizzard. [1]

Dragons , giants , and treasures are thought to be forever preserved within the ice. [3]

Effects on the Material Plane

Coterminous

When Risia is coterminous to Eberron , the cooler regions, like the Frostfell, Everice, and northern Khorvaire , are subject to intense cold. These areas also allow for transport between Eberron and Risia to occur, as well as bolster cold-related spells and powers. Risia is coterminous to the Material Plane during the midwinter month of Zarantyr , once every five years. [1]

Remote

When Risia is remote from the Material Plane , cold becomes somewhat less intense. Conditions of extreme cold are reduced in severity, and cold-based spells are harder to cast. Risia is remote from the Material Plane during the midsummer month of Lharvion , once every five years, two and a half years after each coterminous phase. [1]
