Who is Frostina?
The frost wraith banishes pieces into the ice and sends ice wraiths onto the board.
Lady Frostina Gravechill resides in a palace of ice where even the ghosts wear scarves. She thinks warmth is overrated and hugs are suspicious. Her ice wraiths do everything for her, except making tea, which freezes at once. When she smiles, the temperature drops by ten degrees.
Before the first move, Frostina hides the Frost trap on the board. If your opponent moves onto the square, the piece freezes solid: it is paralyzed for 3 moves.
Spells

Banish the best defender
Frost banishment sends a rook, bishop or knight into the ice for 6 moves. With a cooldown of just 4, you can keep doing it.
Put ice wraiths to work fast
Ice wraiths return up to two captured pawns to your third rank. They melt after 6 of your moves, so use them right away.
A master spell on a budget
