Notes for future reference in a spell~ but not applicable here
If cast towards a hostile target, it appears as a horizontal icicle the same opaque white, one meter long and twelve centimeters wide.  This icicle flies towards a target up to 75m away, at a rate of approximately 40m/s~ for the sake of round numbers~ and acts as a linear single target projectile that cannot be blocked by nonmagical things but may definitely be dodged.  If it hits an enemy, it prevents them from using any type of vision be it spell or just plain physical, for that post if they are of equal or lower rank.  Opponents of one rank above will find that they are only half effectively visually impaired and may not use any spells relating to vision which are of equal or lower rank to Verglas.

Primary Magic: Special Snowflake Magic (Kiah Lake)
Secondary Magic: N/A
Caster or Holder: Lost Magic: Caster
Description:

Kiah Lake is an ancient magic used by the residents of Iceberg and passed down through generations.  It was originally taught to the chieftain of one igloo village by a fallen angel, who sought to regain her risen state by teaching mortals of morality and faith.  From this first knowledge is descended the modern form of the Kiah Lake which Lacey uses, improved on over time but still managing to retain an aspect of pure spirit.  The biggest change was the shift from the usage of light as a medium to ice.  Because great temperatures and placement on a land can affect light, such as bending it and getting none at all on certain days, it was a finicky thing to base a magic around in a country like Iceberg.  Ice and snow are so prevalent that in the nation, they were not a problem at all to find and ended up working best.

Lacey uses this magic sparingly for combat, although she does unconsciously weave together Kiah Lake and her everyday life.  An example would be how she has a tendency to make it snow wherever she goes, although this can be reversed easily both since it is unnatural and because a little bit of concentration eliminates the issue if it is such.  Admittedly, she enjoys the snow a great deal and would not always automatically get rid of it.  An adoration of the cold over any other type of environmental state, leaves her preference as terrain possessing this trait: tundra, high mountains, and arctics are preferred for suitable battleground.  Worth noting is how it is a major part of her magic's goal to be flexible to what any allies should need.  This being said, she does excel at defense, utility, and support, protecting and strengthening indirectly.

To note~ Although her name and the culture background behind it are both faintly Romanesque, she hails from a village in Iceberg where Japanese yokai are very prevalent and are able to interact freely with human inhabitants of the area.  Despite the fact that Lacey claims to be human, she actually assumed the personality and disguise of a girl from the village after she was accidentally killed while falling through the ice on a skating rink.  This stems from her desire to be accepted and loved and happens to be her greatest sin and the mistruth that she cannot bear to admit.  In the end, though, Lacey is indeed a bakedanuki and possesses some certain traits as such.  The most major is an animal form, in which she has white fur and blue eyes.  She can shapeshift from this form to her other and may also enter a partial state in which she has some attributes of both.  As a whole, she generally has tanuki ears, tail, and fangs.  Her true name is Hiyori Inoue, although she wouldn't even admit it under duress and has gotten it sealed away from being sprung from her lips by truth spells or the like.

Strengths:

† Able to freeze water magic among other things
† Great for supporting allies
† Defensive abilities can buy time to formulate a more tactical plan

Weaknesses:

† Melts to heat magic
† Fire is more effective against it
† Not very strong in offense
† Weak in heavy melee combat

Unique Abilities:

Glacial Potency † Lacey's magic has a burning cold touch that seeps into any hostile target damaged by it or in contact with it.  This cold afflicts any of the affected with .5 rank damage per post in magic damage as frostbite for up to the next three posts and may not be triggered on the same target for at least one post following the duration.  May be removed by de-debuff or fire spells of a higher rank. I would prefer the cool down time to at least be 4 posts since the duration is 3 posts.

Slippery Slope † Although it is well known that defense piercing abilities exist, it is less common for counteractive measures to be present in order to discourage these piercing abilities.  Any defensive creation by Lacey requires to be destroyed before passing by; the preventative measure comes into play if someone attempts to "skip" and bypass eliminating the creation and do straight damage right away.  The shield/barrier health is dealt to any "skipper" during the attempt, but such efforts by a hostile party can be cancelled and only 50% damage would be taken.  These effects can only apply to a person up to one rank above Lacey, no more, and have no increased effect on lower ranks. At most barrier damage can only deal 2x damage to a person since it deals damage and isn't a purely defensive shield.

Snowflake Delicacy † She is not a physically weak person, but Lacey can be a delicate snowflake compared to others of her stature.  This can be attributed to spending great periods of time attempting to either help others, and building homes builds muscle but not that much muscle, or to strengthening her magic or attempting to help the community.  She sacrifices 30% flat physical strength for an additional 80% ability strength.  Consider it like this; an A Rank buff for a single stat can be around 50% to 60% without drawbacks, and 20% to 30% extra now with the evening out drawbacks. Unfortunately, the max allowed buff is 50% without drawbacks and 60-75% with major to severe, and multiple, drawbacks given.

Frozen Clarity † A certain system of miniature crystals amplifies the range and ability of Lacey's eyes.  She can more easily monitor a being's breathing, heart rate, and other systems through purely visual means; her understanding of his or her physiology is increased, allowing her to do an additional 25% damage and catch, to some extent as a matter of plot, lies.

Idol of Ice † A thin, invisible coat of ice runs over her body and is able to absorb up to 1 user rank of incoming damage.  This coat refreshes every post and takes an additional 25% damage from heat based sources. I would like the cool down to at least be 2 posts.
