Avalanche Creation

The ability to create avalanches. Sub-power of Ice Manipulation and Disaster Manipulation

Also Called

 * Avalanche Calling
 * Avalanche Generation
 * Avalanche Making

Capabilities
The user has the ability to create/generate avalanches (also called a snowslide or snowslip), which is a rapid flow of snow down a sloping surface. Avalanches are typically triggered in a starting zone from a mechanical failure in the snowpack (slab avalanche) when the forces on the snow exceed its strength but sometimes only with gradually widening (loose snow avalanche). After initiation, avalanches usually accelerate rapidly and grow in mass and volume as they entrain more snow. If the avalanche moves fast enough some of the snow may mix with the air forming a powder snow avalanche, which is a type of gravity current.

Applications

 * Ice/Snow Generation

Associations

 * Disaster Manipulation
 * Environmental Manipulation
 * Arctic Manipulation
 * Ice Manipulation
 * Snow Manipulation
 * Dark Ice Manipulation
 * Storm Manipulation - most avalanches occur during storms.
 * Mountain Manipulation

Limitations

 * May only cause avalanches in snowy mountainous areas.
 * Mostly occurs in winter seasons only.
 * User may be swallowed/be killed by avalanches he/she created.
 * User can only create the avalanches, not control them.
 * May be unable to create ice to cause avalanches, being limited to the ice in the natural surroundings instead.
