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
 * Cryomancy
 * Chionokinesis
 * Frost Manipulation
 * Snow Creation
 * Snow Manipulation
 * Ice/Snow Control

Capability
The user psychically reduces the kinetic energy of atoms to reduce temperature. Some can generate snow by affecting air molecules. Users may move ice around at will (pause hail/snow in midair), shift ice to/from liquid or gas at will (freeze water), or form constructs and basic weapons from ice (hurl snowballs, shed icicles, manipulate objects covered with ice) at will. This may lead to inducing avalanches, breaking ice off of glaciers and the like. 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

 * May accompany Ice Mimicry, or Weather Manipulation.
 * Also fits in the category of Elemental Manipulation.
 * May stem from Water Manipulation.

Limits

 * May be unable to control or manipulate water.
 * Users with abilities to control fire or water may be resistant to this ability because of their inherient 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.

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 the ground.
 * Your fighting skills are infused with cold energy.
 * Freeze water.
