Astrid Abrahamsson[]
Astrid has the ability to manipulate snow and ice using her hands. There is a unique well of magic within her that she taps into when using this power, which is focused through her hands. When the well of power is depleted, exhaustion overtakes her and she will need a restorative sleep and meal. The manipulation is not all powerful - she cannot freeze people or use it too much without depleting the well. Music helps Astrid control this ability and not let it get out of hand, so she will often be found humming while using it. Signs that show Astrid tapping into the power include a faint blue light emanating from her hands and wisps of glowing, bluish steam around snowy/icy bits that she had manipulated. Astrid discovered the power when she was nearly six years old, first displaying itself when her normal magic started to appear. She is capable of producing balls of snow (which she often likes to make into playful snowmen) and icicles, especially when she is angry. The power is tied to her emotions, so in order to conceal her powers, Astrid has managed to internalise and lock away strong feelings, only letting them go when she is certain she can control them.
