Ice Manipulation

The ability to reduce the kinetic energy of atoms and thus reduce temperature, can be used to control, generate, or absorb ice.

Also known as

 * Cryokinesis
 * Chionokinesis
 * Frost Manipulation
 * Frost Control
 * Snow Manipulation
 * Cryomancy
 * Cryogenesis
 * Snow Crontrol
 * Snow Control
 * Ice Control
 * Ice Bending
 * Ice Release

Capability
The user psychically reduces the kinetic energy of atoms in order to reduce temperature. Some can generate snow by affecting air molecules. Users may even become capable of generating and sending forth a freezing beam. Due to the amount of water on Earth, they have a virtually unlimited supply of moisture since it is always present in the surrounding air or environment. Even desert air has sufficient moisture content for higher-level users to make temporary practical use of; however, the mental effort needed to employ such power under these circumstances could eventually fatigue them and render any freezing ability temporarily dysfunctional.

Associations

 * One of the two powers derived from Thermal Manipulation.
 * May accompany Ice Mimicry, or Weather Manipulation.
 * Also fits in the category of Elemental Manipulation.
 * A sub-power of Water and Air Manipulation

Application

 * Shoot sharp icicles.
 * Make shields of ice for protection.
 * Create weapons out of ice for offensive purposes.
 * Shoot freeze beams that could freeze objects/people.
 * Create ice sculptures for various uses.
 * Create a trail of ice in front of oneself to slide on.
 * Shoot blasts of ice.
 * Create balls of ice.
 * Freeze anything to a cellular level causing it to shatter.
 * Generate liquid nitrogen to quickly freeze your enemies.
 * Create bullets which melt, leaving no evidence.
 * Adding Bacteria to Icy Constructs can give it a poison-like effect which can be immune to most medicine.
 * Bacterial Proteins can make it possible to freeze warm (But not boiling) water.

Limits

 * Unable to control or manipulate water, except possibly slush.
 * Users with abilities to control fire or water may be resistant to this ability because of their inherent kinetic energy.
 * If dependant on water, may be unable to use power due to dehydration, or low levels of moisture in the surrounding atmosphere.
 * Will melt at any extreme heat of those who control Fire Manipulation and Geothermal Manipulation.
