Description
A tome originally commissioned by Crochetcocoking

Not much to say. It's an animal tome with a lot of frost in it. Its theme grabs great inspiration from the Norse lore of Fenrir, the Great Wolf.

Known Bugs
Animal Kinship - It will appear twice but this is only a visual bug (one of which I cannot fix). The effect is not doubling.

Credits
Mustang - The Art
Crochetcocoking - Foundation of the skills/effects

I'm referring to Comet of Calamity from the Tome of Calamity. My bad, I mispoke when I said Catastrophe.

If you mean Blizzard Catastrophe from the same mod, being a weaker version of a siege project seems completely fine to me. As it stands currently, even with the friendly fire on the spell I was still perfectly okay with hitting my own troops because it hits basically an entire army while also dealing more damage than the Tier-V spells that are intended to hit the entire enemy army. I'm not sure where the sweet spot is balance wise.

It used to be 2-hexes then someone said its a weaker version of catastrophe so putting it back down to 2-hex on top of reducing the damage is probably gonna have the same previous feeling. I can reduce the damage, however, or if you have an alternative idea.

Just finished up a cold-caster campaign. It was fun, but Bite of Winter ended up being the only thing I was casting at endgame. The 3-hex radius is just way too strong. It covers essentially an entire army and then some on top of being a shadow spell for the bonus frost damage synergies. I'd recommend shrinking it just slightly and *maybe* lowering the damage.

Otherwise, fun spells. I like the animal major conversion.

Interesting mod, really lets some of the earlier beast tomes shine.

UPDATE(8/5/25)
Blizzard Catastrophe
>1 Fortification damage => No Fortification damage
Hastened (1T) -> (3T)

Bite of Winter
>1-Hex radius => 3-Hex Radius
>15 frost damage => 25 frost damage
>Tooltip to show it inflicts status vulnerability on fail

Wolf Blood
>Human Core (+25% Upkeep)
>Since animals innately have low maintenance (-25% upkeep), I had to make Human Core to counteract it.
