Snowflake Boa

Tiny beast
Mundane; boon
Speed 20 ft.

Regions: Frozen Wastes, Lofty Mountains (caves, ice fields)

Naturally warm-blooded and covered in soft, fur-like feathers instead of scales, snowflake boas have adapted to life in cold, snowy climates where other snakes could not survive. Docile and slow-moving outside of a hunt, these snakes are often content to be draped across a person’s shoulders or around their necks like a scarf. Adventurers who succeed on an Animal Handling check (DC 13) gain resistance to cold damage from environmental hazards so long as the boa remains on their person.

While they can’t live outside of cold environments, snowflake boas are occasionally sold to those heading into frigid areas for 100 gold.
