Dressed in an oriental kimono and holding in his hands a blue blade, a furious forest elf flies with wings of ice to launch an attack on the dragon that burned his icy forests and murdered his people.

With tears in your eyes that freeze on your face, before reach the ground, a human stops the time before seeing her fiance be hit by a blow from a angel.
  
A Halfiling, sees a vampire coming towards him with the intention  of drink every last drop of your magic blood. Then, he holds mystical  freezing energy in his hands and hurls towards his attacker turning it into a statue of ice and regret.
   
The frozen ones carry in their blood a mixture of gifts and curse. It is not possible to choose to be frozen one, neither to learn your techniques. The cosmetic forces of winter, their lineage or forces not yet known choose him to share his power.

Creating a Frozen One

The most important narrative element that we must remember when building a frozen one is the source of its freezing power. Like you did you get it? Does your origin descend from the lineage of the ice goddess? Have you been blessed by the element of cold? A spirit of the blizzard possessed your body when you were a baby? And how do you feel about the magical power that runs through you? You hugged him, trying to dominate him or delight in its unpredictable nature? He is a blessing or a curse? Did you seek him or did he found you? Did you have the option to decline it or did you want to had it? What do you intend to do with him? Maybe you believe that this power was given to you for some bigger purpose. Or you can decide that this power gives you the right to do what you want, to take what you want those who do not have such power.
