Sorcery: Refrigeration

Refrigeration!

So, this is an easy ability, but a player asked for it, so why not? I also don't have a lot of time to write, so why not? Refrigeration, keeping things cold so they don't go bad, let's do this.

Assuming a nominal maxima Earth Temperature in the hottest places (I live in Phoenix,) we probably want to be able to lower temperatures to 30 degrees at maximum, and that is Temperature Control, which makes this 5 levels worth. that can only cool things, The radius is fine, the range... is probably fine. I think we need Independent because thinking about a refrigerator is boring, and probably a greatly extended duration, adding the costs fatigue modifier gives a default duration of 1 minute, so let's say at least a day. But, meh, extending the duration 1,440x means we might as well go for pseudo-permanent. Altogether, our Sorcery ability looks like:

Refrigeration

Keywords: Area (Fixed), Obvious

Full Cost: 57 points.

Casting Roll: None.

Range: 2 Yards.

Duration: Until someone specifically says, "burr, isn't it a little chilly in here?"

Cools a 2 yard radius, 4 yard tall cylinder. It can reduce temperature 2 degrees (plus Sorcery talent) a second for up to 50 seconds, at which point the temperature remains until someone is annoyed by how cold it is.

Statistics: Temperature Control 5 (Sorcery -15%; Cold, -50%; Independent 1, +40%; Extended Duration, Permanent, +150%) [57]

Other Thoughts

This is a somewhat expensive ability, so you could potentially make it a bit cheaper in a cooler climate, or if you don't care about how long it lasts. You could subtract 8 points from the cost as well if you would put reduced range on it to make it require touching to work. If you take off independent, the cool area would start to slowly warm up to match the ambient temperature again, but you could save 10 points that way as well.
