CryoGas

cryogenic mist

As clouds descend on a warm valley, so does escaped cryo vapor on its surroundings. Objects come through the translucent mist in waves.

Perfect

Cryogenic mist is a type of gas that deals damage and reduces the temperature of creatures that come in contact with it.[1] Cryogenic mist cannot seep through walls and does not need to be inhaled to have an effect.

Sources

Common sources of cryogenic mist, with their level and density, include:[2][3]

Source Gas Level Gas Density Reference
Heat-induced vaporization of convalessence 1 (vaporized drams) ÷ 20 [4]
frosted pillars 1 20 density burst, once every 8 turns, if target cell is empty [5]
cryotubes 1 20 initial density upon creation [6][7][8]

Of these sources, only vaporized convalessence has the potential to appear in densities significantly higher than 20.

Gas level has no effect on cryogenic mist and all sources normally found in game are level 1.

Damage and Effects

Cryogenic mist deals one damage per turn to any creature currently in the same cell. Players take this damage even while frozen; non-player creatures do not.[9]

Each turn that a creature is in the same cell as the gas, if the creature's temperature is above negative 2.5 × Density (rounded up), the gas also causes the creature's temperature to be reduced by 2.5 × Density.

All damage and temperature effects are avoided if the creature does not share the same phase state as the gas.
