Adversary overview

A hulking, icy lizard with slitted eyes scanning for its next place of rest.

The Rimeback is a heavy beast of ice that spends weeks hibernating in snowdrifts, absorbing latent energy to feed itself. It can travel great distances without rest and is covered in scale-like protrusions of ice.
