Absolute Demise

**Absolute Demise**, also called **Eternal Ice Princess**, is one of the original Longinus. Ranked as the 10th Longinus, it possesses to power to summon a giant ice doll capable of freezing anything and manipulate ice and snow.

## Summary

Absolute Demise is the tenth of the original Longinus - Exceptionally powerful Sacred Gears with powers capable of killing gods and immortals, as well as having the potential to destroy the entire world. It is considered the opposite of Incinerate Anthem, another Longinus with the power to control holy fire that can burn even space.

The Longinus' most infamous wielder, as well as its earliest recorded wielder, was Bláinn Fifelvetr, a Edenith scientist who used it to rule over ancient Scandinavia, and through the usage of antediluvian technology, created the jötnar races by genetically modified the regional pagan gods. Because of this, he was defeated and killed by Odin and his brothers, Vili and Vé, though he was later immortalized in Norse mythology as the Primordial Jötunn **Ymir**.

Another famous past wielder was Anastasia Nikolaevna, Grand Duchess of Russia and youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last sovereign of Imperial Russia. Due to her early death and the fact many important documents were destroyed during this era, not much is known about her experience with her Longinus other than her possession of it.

## Appearance

Absolute Demise takes the form of a three-meter tall doll made of ice in the form of a sleeping maiden with four arms formed from crystal and ice. It doesn't have a human-like face, instead it has six eyes on the left side of its face, while the right side is studded with something resembling the thorns of a rose.

## Abilities

Through the doll, Absolute Demise allows its wielder to create, shape, and manipulate ice, which has a nigh-limitless number of uses and only is limited by the wielder's imagination. They have nigh-absolute control over all forms of icy matter, allowing them to shape ice however they see fit, such as creating anything they can imagine, such as items and weapons or animated ice sculptures to even an entire city or ecosystem. Unless it's being willed not to, the ice the wielder generates is at a temperature where they cause cellular destruction for those that inhale it or would instantly kill someone due to their body's incapability to withstand such low temperatures.

The wielder can freeze cells, tissues, or any other substances susceptible to damage caused by chemical reactivity or time by cooling to sub-zero temperature to preserve them, since at low enough temperatures, any enzymatic or chemical activity which might cause damage to the material in question is effectively stopped. Through precise control, they can stop blood flow to the brain by freezing the bloodstream from afar, halt chemical reactions by using ice to interfere, or cause matter to break down and collapse on itself if at a low enough temperature. Inversely, they would be able to plunge the entire planet into an ice age by exponentially lowering the Earth's temperature or simulate time stopping by lowering the surrounding temperature to the point everything is at a complete standstill.

The Longinus' most well-known power is the power to reduce the thermodynamic temperature of the wielder's surroundings to **Absolute Zero**, a physically impossible-to-reach state by normal means. At such extreme temperature levels, events that normally don't occur in nature begin to happen, such as superconductivity and superfluidity, as well as breakdowns at the atomic level. Without atomic motion, the frozen objects lose all electrical resistances and atomic cohesion, shattering at atomic level under the weight of its own mass. And since this affects matter at an atomic scale, it will destroy any physical target it makes contact with, regardless of their conventional durability.

By infusing the doll with some of their own life-force, the wielder is also capable of generating and projecting enchanted ice that cannot be melted by normal means, such as extreme heat or fire, and can only be melted by special types of Fire Magic such as holy fire or hellfire. Not to mention, upon exchanging their life-force with the doll, the wielder can freeze virtually anything, from tangible targets to intangible energy or even concepts such as time or a person's mind, thus making the thawing of ice extremely more difficult, if not a downright impossible feat even with supernatural methods.

## Techniques

### Snow-Based Magic

* **Blizzard(White Out)**: The doll releases a powerful burst of snow out of its mouth which is strong enough to destroy several buildings in a row. After the snow is shot out, it will wrap around the intended target to blind and then bury them in the snow.
* **Vargavinter(Wolves of Winter)**: The doll summons a demonic snowstorm within a 100-meters radius from the wielder with malevolent spirits hidden inside. The snowstorm actively seeks out potential targets and draws them inside the storm, in which all inanimate objects will be fully transformed into ice sculptures whereas all living beings will be devoured by the spirits until only their crystallized skeletons behind.

### Ice-Based Magic

* **Devil's Roses(Garden of the Winter Queen)**: The wielder creates a giant rose garden made of ice to surround, bind, and freeze their opponent. The ice is near-unbreakable, as only city-leveling explosions are capable of shattering it, though upon shattering, all the frozen figures inside will mostly die due to impact.
* **Devil's Knights(Wolves of the Winter Queen)**: The wielder creates multiple-sized knights made of ice, these knights are composed of multiple large knights wielding spears and giant knights wielding a pair of lances and shields. The giant knights would then rush towards their target, piercing it with their lances and the large knights would finish it off by slashing their target with their spears.
* **Devil's Bellows(Roar of the Winter Queen)**: The doll releases a large blizzard of ice shards and freezing air from its mouth, directing it towards an area of the wielder's choosing. The blizzard inflicts great damage upon those it contacts, causing everyone unable to resist it to be sent flying away with great force, as well as leaving behind a trail of destruction in its wake, heavily damaging the area it passes through. If the wielder chooses to, they can detonate the ice shards at any time of their choice.

### Lost Magic

* **Fimbulvetr(Winters of End)**: A Lost Magic created by Bláinn Fifelvetr using magic of the First Men. Supposedly, the magic creates a devastating snowstorm that enshrouds the Earth and freezes the Earth's cores and ley lines, sending the planet into an ice age that even the immortal gods can barely survive. Because of its terrifying power, the Norsemen integrated it into their eschatology, marking it an event that signifies Ragnarök.

## Forms

### Assoluto Argento Mondo

**Assoluto Argento Mondo**, also called **Snow World Believed to be Eternal**, is Lavinia Reni's Crest Side Balance Breaker. It has the ability to create a strong blizzard that can make a distinction between friends and foes and is said to be powerful enough to freeze over time. It is said that she can encase an a entire country in a world of ice with the Balance Breaker.

## Trivia

* Like other Longinus, it's categorized into multiple classifications:
	+ It's categorized as a Creation-Type, Attribute/Elemental-Type, and Independent Avatar.

* "Fimbulvetr" comes from Old Norse, meaning "awful, great winter".
* "Assoluto Argento Mondo" is Italian for "Absolute Silver World".
* The name of the Longinus, Absolute Demise, may be a reference to its ability to induce the temperature of **absolute zero**, the theoretical temperature at which atoms stop moving.
