ANNOUNCEMENT: GM Estild announced that Cold Immunity was removed on a number of undead creatures. Unless a creature specifically deals with cold/ice, it is no longer immune, or resistant to cold. There’s a long list of creatures that lost cold immunity and a list that kept it. Things that lost their cold immunity also lost their fire susceptibility, he noted.
