Jimson Shivers' transformation has begun. The element of cold that he seeks to channel is pushing itself to the surface. His palms are cold to the touch. It is a cold he knows he can spread. If he so desires, he can. The skin on his hand peels back. Slowly. Intentionally. Sensing his desire to help. Whatever he touches next, the Ice on his hands almost infects it. Causing massive crystalline growth all over it. Beautiful blue Ice shapes itself around whatever he makes contact with, turning it into a sculpted, beautiful version of itself. The ice totally encapsulates whatever he touches, leaving no surface on the item left unmarred.
