Yūgure Art: Icy Heart

Utilizing the third level of Yūgure elemental mastery Rika is able to slow down the molecular movement of water to such a degree that it solidifies into ice. This frozen water, whose state is maintained as long as the user's chakra is flowing into the water in question can be shaped according the will of the practitioner, allowing this technique a nearly infinite array of possibilities. Like its parent technique this skill requires chakra dependent on the amount of water, or in this case ice, that the user is manipulating. It should be noted that the ice formed from this technique is not on the same level as that generated with the, and can be readily melted with fire.
