As Glacial consumes more and more of the Glacier its body reaches ever lower temperatures, granting it immense magical powers. Glacial is able to lash out with powerful icy magic effortlessly, freezing caverns closed at the first sign of an intruder. The intruder, now trapped, will experience rapidly dropping temperatures until they either freeze to death, or are found by Glacial.
