Freezing fog are recurring monsters in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in III.

They are ice-elemental variants of the Cumaulus.

Characteristics

The floating, fun-sucking Freezing fog rains crushing Chilly Breath down on the battlefield, followed by engulfing foes in its icy embrace. Occasionally they'll keep their cool by just breathing a far less deadly Cool Breath. The cold clouds are colored in various shades of blue to set them apart from their gaseous cousins.
