Character Bio (from front page): The Greater Ice Elemental is a Jandar-summoned Hero ready to support the adventuring group. He has a new ability that is very unique. Using ICE COLD, he can turn the water spaces he’s on and all same-level adjacent water spaces to normal ice spaces. Normally that’s just a cool little mechanic to create an ice bridge. But couple that with his COLD HEALING power, and you’ve got a self healing Hero that can change the landscape of any battlefield!
