Winter Magic
Winter went to the southern mountains.
However, his magic affected the land.
With this, he blessed his people.
So they may survive the snowy wilderness.
Winter, God of Snow and Winter
Winter was the embodiment of winter magic. They affected the southern mountains of Astnyr from their presence alone, transforming the once lush forests into a snowy hellscape. This was the most magical change that the environment witnessed during that time.
Berserkers and Snow Paladins were the primary benefactors of winter magic. However, there were also those who used winter magic while ranching animals.
Battle Magic
Berserkers and Snow Paladins used winter magic differently in battle. Berserkers' winter magic concentrated on offensive maneuvers while Snow Paladins focused on defense. This worked well when Strection's Justice Paladins would attack Frosthalla on frequent occasions.
Berserker's had three magical skills. These were summoning ice lances from the ground and air, attaching ice spikes to their axes, and freezing enemies. Summoned ice lances pierce through both armor and flesh. They were strong enough to hold someone in the air, impaled and blood running down the ice. Soon, enemies laid lifeless upon them. Ice spikes enhanced Berserker axes' strength, also pierced through armor. The deadly combo of metal and ice could freeze even their foe's organs, making them stop beating and flowing blood entirely on impact. Frozen enemies could be trapped inside the ice forever because it never melted. During present times, these "ice statues" served as warnings to Strection to never underestimate Frosthalla's unity.
Snow Paladins had two magic skills. These skills were called "Snow Wings" and "Icicle Chains". Snow Wings concentrated on their shields, making something akin to wings through snow flurries and ice. They flowed behind them and defended anyone within the wing's span of range. This made up with people behind them and besides. Icicle Chains bound enemies, making them slower. Foes could not swing their weapons or cast spells as fast as they normally would, making it a keen opportunity to attack.
Ranchers
Preserving meat could be a hard challenge, even in mountains as cold as Frosthalla's. People had a somewhat merciful way of seeping cold into an animal once they deemed it old and ready for slaughter. This ensured the creature remained calm during their time of death and not damaging its meat quality. Preservation of meats was created by ice cubes around the meat. This made it look like meat was floating within the ice itself, but it stayed fresh even after the ice was melted by the Ranchers.
