SQ blessing of the winter princess

Blessing Of The Winter Princess (Su) If Icicle Blues engages in an act of passion, such as kiss, with another person, that creature gains benefit of endure elements (cold only) and resist cold 10 for the next 24 hours.

Winterborn (Ex) Icicle Blues ignores detrimental effects of winter weather, such as cold temperature, slippery ice, snowdrifts, and freezing wind. She can swim in almost freezing water without ill effects. If she desires so, water freezes under her feet allowing her to effectively walk on newly formed ice. She can eat and drink but can actually live without sustenance for at least a season.

Notable Gear icicle bow (+1 frost composite short bow, that she can call into his hand as a swift action), princely garb (+1 lamellar cuirass), jewelry (at least one piece bears a minor magical effect), a few +1 fey-bane arrows kept for special occasion (such as hunting a significant Otherworldly prey or engaging in blood-feud with another fey family)

Princess Icicle Blues is the daughter of King Hoarfrost and sister of prince Shinewhite Snowflake. Unlike her brother, she has little but contempt for mortals, their lives, their culture, and their reverence—she'd rather be riding across the wilds of the Otherworld and hunting in the company of other young fey royals than being stuck in the endless cycle winter festivals of the Hoarbound Vale.

For now, she honors her father's wish, attending the festivals with him and her brother, though she occasionally takes out her irritation on the servants, misperceiving their hospitality and reverence as the thing that chains her to this boorish, mortal place. Like her brother, she doesn't understand, that it's their father who holds the locals in thrall, forcing the natives to revere and fete him as their would-be god, and that as long as he can have his way, they are never leaving.
