White Sapphire

The White Sapphire is one of the first variation on gems created. It, under certain situations, can create, and even manipulate ice. It is a mix of Sapphire and a certain type of Ruby.
==Experiments==
Because of the powerful nature of this gem, it is very rare. That does not stop scientists from experimenting on it. It is one of the gems that has been discovered to 'bond' with humans on a very strange level. It can, but only in massive amounts, be absorbed into the human body, replacing the flesh and essentially causing the patient to become a living gem. It is not done very often, as the human often loses control over their powers eventually, and can often cause massive destruction during a 'meltdown'.
Abilities gained are massive. The human often gains complete control over ice, both to make and to move, even without much direct control. The ice is only as strong as normal ice and will shatter, and even melt if the human doesn't keep in direct contact with it. The human is nigh invulnerable, as long as there is some moisture in the air. Should there be no moisture in the air, the human may use his/her own body mass as a base for their ice.
During the 'Meltdown' stage of their lives, the empowered become unstable, and retain less and less control over their powers until they finally become their element and lose their sentience. 
==Notes==
*Somewhat inspired by Logia type Devil fruits from One Piece.
