+Spellbooks of endure cold comprise approximately 1.52% of all spellbooks randomly generated on the ground, in general [[shop]]s or as [[death drop]]s.{{refsrc|objects.c|1093|version=SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2}} Second-hand bookstores and rare books stores can also stock spellbooks of endure cold.

+Writing a spellbook of endure cold with a [[magic marker]] uses up 10 to 19 charges.
 ==Description==
-The spellbook teaches the endure cold spell, a level 2 [[Spellcasting (SLASH'EM)#Protection_spells|protection spell]] which grants temporary [[cold resistance]] for 500 to 1499 (more) turns.  As with similar spellbooks, possessing the temporary intrinsic does not interfere with gaining the permanent one, usually through eating corpses.  The spell has no effect if cast while already possessing permanent intrinsic cold resistance.
+==Strategy==
-==Strategy==
+Note that the spell does not protect against inventory damage and destruction, e.g. it will not prevent [[potion]]s in open inventory from freezing and shattering if the hero is subjected to cold damage. Once the hero gains a long-term source of cold resistance, the spellbook becomes a prime candidate for [[blanking]].
-Compared to its [[spellbook of resist sleep|sleep-]] and [[spellbook of resist poison|poison-]]warding cousins, this spellbook is noticeably less useful.  It is rarer, costs twice the MP to use, and does not protect against any [[instadeath]]s.  While cold resistance is ultimately an important property , it is rarely an urgent one, and most heroes can afford to wait until they find a permanent source.  The spell may still be worth casting in a few specific situations (e.g. around [[blue jellies]]), but overall the spellbook is a prime candidate for blanking.
+Heroes adhering to a food-restricting [[conduct]], e.g. [[vegetarian]] or [[foodless]] may find this spell to be useful for a longer duration, though there are also more [[vegan]]-friendly sources of cold resistance in SLASH'EM and SlashTHEM. The spell is also especially useful if a player is observing [[atheist]] conduct alongside the given conducts, which prevents [[crowning]] to obtain the intrinsic.
-Heroes following food-restricting [[conduct]]s may find the spell more useful, although as SLASH'EM has numerous [[vegan]] sources of cold resistance, this is likely only to be relevant to those who are entirely [[foodless]].
