Cold Power
Cold Power [Major] by Iczer
'Is it cold in here or is that me'
The character derives power and strength from sub zero temperatures.
1) General immunities: The character is immune to cold, and takes half damage from Ice. He cannot lose his balance on ice, and can move at normal speed through ice and snowy terrain. Instead of taking damage from cold, he can heal one SDC or HP for every 3 damage he ignores (this does not work with Ice though). The character is still able to be trapped by snow and ice, and even blinded by snow and ice (snow blindness comes from refracting light not snow in and of itself).
2) Enhanced abilities: When at temperatures of 20 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit (-6 to 4 degrees Celsius) the character enjoys increased healing rates (x2) boosted strength (+ 5PS, +10 Spd) and endurance (Fatigues at one half rate) and has a bonus of +30 SDC Below 20 degrees, he enjoys 4 times normal healing rates, a +10 bonus to PS (Extraordinary if nor already better) a +20 bonus to spd a +4 to PP and +1 attack per melee round . His SDC bonus climbs to +60.
After -58 degrees F (-50C) he gains +100SDC a PS bonus of +15 and a +30 to speed, along with +8 PP and 2 extra attacks per melee round.
3) Cold body: His superhuman bonuses end when the local temperature rises. local temperature refers to an area of at least 60 feet across. a campfire in the snow will not cancel the power. The character carries cold with him as well. Fire and heat attacks are reduced by half and he can reduce a source of heat or fire by 10% per level as long as he concentrates on doing so (One action per round required). This includes vehicles (which require the combustion of fuel) and firearms (that rely on rapidly expanding hot gasses to function). This effect extends for 20 feet per level. The cold body effect renders the character invisible to heat sensors (except those calibrated to discern cold spots of course) and allows the character to inflict 1D4 damage from his freezing touch (+1D4 per level). The character can turn this effect off if he desires and return to normal ranges of human body temperature)
