Hydro-Cryokinesis is the water-based power to freeze water and all things that contain water.
Description[]
Hydro-Cryokinesis is the ability to freeze water or anything containing liquid, ranging from human body to the water molecules in the air. It can also be used to raise or lower cold water temperatures at will. This ability can cause things to become brittle enough to break, such as an electronic lock. It can also be used to render people immobile by freezing only their wet clothing.
It can also be combined with Hydrokinesis in order to create ice balls, which can be used to attack humans or other merpeople if the user is threatened. At first, it implies that Hydro-Cryokinesis could only freeze things with water over it. But several times, Emma was able to freeze, cool, and lock objects with her powers without the aids of water, implying that she can freeze the small water molecules around those dry objects. A merperson with this power can paralyse a land person by rendering them immobile just by their wet suits.
Hydro-Cryokinesis and Cryokinesis are known to be common powers for Northern merpeople, as they had been stated to use their powers to trap sharks in ice prisons. It is also one of the three original powers granted by the Moon Pool at the heart of Mako Island.
Channeling[]
This power is always channeled through the use of one's hands. The hand movement for this power is a stiff "stop" sign which may symbolize the slowing down and stopping of water molecules. However, not all mermaids and mermen activate this power in this way, each of them has a unique way of activating it.
Developed Powers[]
Cryokinesis[]
If a merperson with this power entered the waters of any active Moon Pool under the Elemental Moon, it was drastically enhanced to a full-fledged Cryokinesis, in which a merperson was able to freeze anything, and to create snow and ice without the presence of liquid water.
