Quote:
Biting Chill ( 18 ) : The cold is strangely harsh, and even the still wind is vicious enough to sting. But the cold isn't the worst part of tonight--it's what comes with it. Out of a swirl of blowing snow, a massive, wispy wolf takes shape, enormous and snarling, with fur spiked like jagged icicles. Its eyes glow with a cold, wild intelligence, and before you can even react, it lunges as though you’ve trespassed deep into its territory. Every strike it makes feels like the bite of winter itself. Wherever its claws slash, wherever its jaws snap, frost cakes over. Even if you're lucky enough not to take massive damage, the cold seeps bone deep. When you manage to land a hit, the creature bleeds a strange, clear blood--icy water that freezes instantly into slush on the ground. The more damage it takes, the more its form flickers, shredded like wind-torn snow. The wolf fights with the relentless instinct of a dire beast, but it is not invulnerable. It will never run. It will fight until its body is broken and flickering, then--finally--a sudden gust will rip through the air and carry its dissolving body away. Howls echo on the wind. The rest of its pack probably isn't too far behind.
Note: This strange wolf is not a youma but can be used as a battle requirement for a character. It can only be used as a battle if there are two powered characters involved; you cannot write a solo and count this as a battle, and your character must be powered to meet battle requirements. You can use the prompt for as many characters as you like and it will count as a battle requirement, however if you repeat the prompt with the same character, only the first time will be usable as a battle.

Something about tonight felt colder than the previous one, leaving Feronia to leave the house in his fuku and wander with more caution, his ears perked up and twitching towards any sound that he heard as he pushed through the trees and towards a new direction for tonight's adventure.
The air was colder, sharper too, and it had him more on edge, especially as he felt another presence nearby. It felt similar, maybe? But that had never been his strong point, even now, since Antisana had told him about things a little bit at a time.
While the person ahead had their back to him, he could have sworn he saw something moving in the snow. From his hiding spot behind one of the trees, he tried to lean forward to get a better look. The sound of a snapping branch startled him even as he realized it had been his own foot that had betrayed him.
Looking down, then back up, he did see a new form taking shape in the snow closer to him than the person ahead. Was it another of the creatures like before? It didn't look like the warped avian...
So instead, he moved out from the trees and headed towards the other person, keeping an eye on the new creature as it watched him in turn.
