A cruel maneuver which encapsulates the philosophy behind Dire Winter well. That a strong will is eventually worn down by small pains in torrents, like snowflakes becoming a blizzard.
This maneuver allows the initiator to grow small spikes of ice over her weapon. When a creature is struck by the weapon, the spikes break it in its skin, causing intense pain.
