This even works on some of the strongest bosses (including all 8 Dragons). Try using "Vanish" on an enemy, then cast "Doom", "Break", "X-Zone", "Demi", or "Quartr". When you cast "Vanish" on a creature, the creature becomes very vulnerable to magic, so spells almost never miss. Be sure to cast Life3 on party members, because he'll cast Ultima at the end of the battle. He won't be able to WallChange and he'll lose a lot of spellcasting abilities. To beat the MagiMaster with no problems, simply cast Bserk on him. Equip as many characters as possible with Thunder Shields, to make "Sand Storm" ineffective.

The description, "Makes body cold", means that it takes the life out of the bearer, so he becomes cold, like the dead. Also, if you equip the party leader (the person shown in overworld walkabout) with the Relic Ring and cast Doom on him/her, the entire party will be healed. There are other properties of being undead - Drain, Osmose, and other attacks which steal HP will do the reverse. Cure spells and potions will harm him, but Doom will heal him.
