I've only ever made one, a cryomancer (hence my name) I heard that there is an official cryomanver class somewhere, but I made this before I knew that. Cryomancer is a mage who is half ice elemental. He/she cannot cast fire spells, but gets 25% bonuses to whatever he does with cold. As he progresses in levels, he gets some special cold abilities. The earliest ability he gets is Ice Skin and Frostfingers. Eventually (I forget exactly what level) he gets an ability called manipulate normal cold (not snow or ice, cold{but it includes snowand ice}) The different things he can do with manipulate normal cold are: Ice Skin, ice bolt, snowball flurry, conjure snow/ ice golem or elemental, Icicle Spray (same as IWD2 thorn spray but with icicles) Ice Claws (as the name suggests) Flesh to Ice, Smashing Fist (Giant fist of ice which mimicks caster's hand).
Abilities that require other people to cast them are:
Freeze (drops temp. in 50' radius by 4d20 degrees, coats ground in ice which acts as grease spell, requires 1 priestess of Auril)
Avalanche (must be near mountain {duh} causes 6d10 crushing +1d4/level to enemies, requires 3 priestesses of Auril)
Blessing of Auril (gives all allies 115% resistance to cold {so 15% damage inflicted actually heals that much} immunity to normal weapons, and puts an Ice Skin on all allies. Requires 3 priestesses of Auril and a White Dragon)

As for the priestesses of Auril-those are the henchmen. As for the white dragon- at lvl 20 the Cryomancer gets White Dragon call- summons an old White Dragon with a 25% chance of the beast turning on you. You may think these abilities to be excessive, but some of those official high-level quests are TOUGH! (btw, this is in FR if you don't know)
SOrry for rambling...I just like playing Cryomancers. Oh yeah, they can only be neutral (any neutral) and the only god they worship, if any, is Auril. They have an innate 50% resistance to cold. Ice skin is the same as Stoneskin, but it soaks 1d10 damage/level to a max of 10d10. Also, fire damage is doubled against ice skin. Ok....I am DONE rambling... Anyone else have any of their own classes to share?
