I just want to know if this feat is allowed, for my girlfriends character.

Lord of Utter Cold from Complete Arcane.

It is not listed as an allowed or unallowed feat, so I was just wondering, it's kind of a neat feat that doesn't do all too much.

I usually don't post or read these forums so I hope this is a question that hasn't been discussed already.

It's a regular question, due to the new classification system bedding down. We don't mind answering it when new people ask it!

Anything that isn't mentioned in the LGCS requires specific campaign documentation Opening it for a character before that character can take it.

The rules options in this document are divided into two types of access. If a rules option is not included in this document, you must have campaign documentation Opening it for your PC.

• Open: A PC may take advantage of Open rules items if it meets all the prerequisites. If you gain campaign documentation granting you access to a new rules option, that effectively Opens that rules option for that PC.

• Closed: A PC may not take advantage of any rules item listed as Closed, ever.

All base classes, prestige classes, feats, spells, and domains from the core rulebooks (PH, DMG, MM) are considered Open unless specifically noted otherwise in this appendix.

So you can't take it, unless you have campaign documentation (such as an entry on an AR) giving you access to it.

You may want to check your region's local religious and arcane meta-organizations. Lord of the Uttercold is a feat that is handed out here and there. As to how useful it will be–Piercing Cold may be a better choice, since you won't have undead minions to abuse it with.
