When a creature uses '''Cryokinesis''', a 3x3 area is surrounded in {{favilink|frigid mist}}. If a creature ends their turn inside this mist, they will suffer ice and cold damage depending on '''Cryokinesis's''' level and turn. Their temperature will also change by <math>-20 - \frac{60 \times \text{Level}}{2}</math>.<ref>XRL.World.Parts.CryoZone.cs</ref>
[[File:Cryokinesis in use.png|frame|An [[Esper]] using {{name}} to attack a {{favilink|giant centipede}} and a {{favilink|snapjaw scavenger}} in {{favilink|Red Rock}}.]]
{{Name}} is a [[Mutations#Mental Mutations|mental mutation]] that allows the player to cool nearby areas with their mind, dealing damage to and decreasing the temperature of those within.
 
Cryokinesis grants the "Chill" activated ability, which when used, will prompt the player to pick a tile to cast the ability on. This tile must be a visible square and cannot be further than 8 tiles from the player.{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Parts.Mutation|class=Cryokinesis}}
 
Using Chill will create a 3x3 area of {{favilink|frozen mist}} that lasts for 3 rounds, centered on the chosen tile. Any creature that ends their turn within the frozen mist will suffer [[Damage_Type#Cold|cold]] damage and a significant [[temperature]] decrease as determined by mutation level. Three different damage rolls are calculated for all 3 rounds that the frozen mist is active, where the damage rolls get higher every round. After 3 rounds, the frozen mist will disappear.
== Formulas ==

== Ability Cooldown ==
{{willpower cooldown table | 50 }}
 
== Advantages & Disadvantages ==
{{Opinion}}
=== Advantages ===
* Deals remote damage and can decrease temperature, causing creatures to become [[frozen]]
* Decent area of effect
* Lasts for multiple rounds before disappearing
* Cold can spread over a wide area and freeze enemies even outside the targeted squares, especially when combined with other effects that lower temperature
 
=== Disadvantages ===
* Very high cost at character generation
* Relatively poor range
* Creatures will often path around the frozen mist if it isn't cast directly on top of them
* Lower damage than {{favilink|Pyrokinesis}}, its closest competitor
* Unlike {{favilink|Freezing Ray}}, Cryokinesis does not give the player any particular resistance to cold or freezing- this means that if the effect is placed too close to the player, they may find themselves frozen as the cold spreads
