The Kolad Shards

Contact Llymic

8-level Evocation (ritual)

Formula Ability Checks: Intelligence with mason's tools or Wisdom (Survival) DC 24 (diagram), Intelligence (History) or Wisdom (Insight) DC 24, Intelligence (History) or Wisdom (Insight) DC 24
Formula Backlash: 8d4 psychic damage to primary caster, 8 psychic damage to each secondary caster, one level of exhaustion.
Formula Failure: An indefinite madness, magically frightened for 10 days.   You call out to Llymic, who can hear you as long as you are on the same plane of existence. Its Elder Influence can choose to arrive at any point you can see. If it chooses to appear only far off, only the dread icy winds in his wake might mark his presence. For the duration, Llymic remains close enough to communicate at least fleetingly and you and up to ten creatures have resistance to cold damage. If Llymic influence was already present on your world, you can coax it to within 500 feet if you succeed on a Charisma (Persuasion) check with a DC depending on the current stage of it's influence: stage 1 (DC 15), stage 2 (DC 20), stage 3 (DC 25), or stage 4 (DC 30). In any case, Llymic generally brings at least one Frost Giant Everlasting One and transforms all willing participants into Wendigo. Unwilling participants can avoid becoming Wendigo with a successful Charisma saving throw.
