{{Class
|Name=Disciple of Thrym
|Source=Frostburn
|Role=DPS
|Summary=Given Thrym's moniker, it comes as little surprise that the majority of those who become his disciples are frost giants. A few rare individuals of various races, especially barbarians hailing from frostfell environments, join the ranks of Thrym's clergy, finding strength and security in his temples, which relentlessly prepare for the end of the multiverse. Only those who stand with Thrym will survive into the frozen world that follows. Disciples of Thrym are almost always found in the enormous fortresses and secret temples dedicated to the deity. In these locations, forges fueled by coldfire operate day and night crafting arms and armor for the final battle.

{{Class Feature
|Name=Spells per Day
|Content=A disciple of Thrym can cast a small number of divine spells. To cast a spell, the disciple must have a Wisdom score of at least 10 + the spell's level. The disciple of Thrym's spells are based on Wisdom, and saving throws against these spells have a DC of 10 +Caster level. A disciple of Thrym otherwise casts spells as a cleric does, although he cannot swap out prepared spells to spontaneously cast cure or inflict spells. The disciple's spell list appears at the end of this prestige class description; when he prepares spells, he may select from any of the spells on this list.
