PrinceKaro posted... can Dresden use ice magic
ahahaha funny question, because there is a VERY IMPORTANT plot point I completely forgot about somehow while making that writeup
MAJOR DRESDEN SPOILERS BELOWso dresden is what is known as the
Winter Knight, so he has really really powerful ice magic at his disposal. However, this gift comes with... penalties to his humanity, let's say, so he generally tries avoiding using it unless he's really in trouble. Fights where he's cornered and desperate or pushed up against a wall or clearly magically outgunned. His first instinct is fire, or pure force to knock enemies away. I think you can argue that if the Blob no-sells his fire, he would think that magic in general isn't very effective, since that's a common attribute in his universe, and may resort to other means to get the job done, and could get ganked without feeling the kind of pressure that tends to make him ice up the place. On the other hand, it doesn't necessarily take
that much to get him to iceblast, so if he knows the Blob is right upon him he might summon an icestorm. And if he weren't genre-savvy he'd have died 14 books ago, so I would say that it's pretty likely he'd try a variety of shit against the Blob to see if something would work, or maybe even just look at its gelatiny and suppose ice might do the trick.
Which brings me to another point: Dresden has Star Wars posters and loves corny movies. If "The Blob" exists in his world, he's definitely seen it... probably multiple times.

sure there's animals and stuff in the forest and food in stores if it can eat those
