Gero Master

Some say, to become a master of Gero, one must become winter itself. While this is an exaggeration, the abilities of a master are still impressive: to freeze entire areas, bring snow where you enter, and channel all you create into whatever you desire.

Depict your character channeling snow or ice in a large quantity. Do they freeze a lake or a river, and decide to manipulate that ice? Are they summoning a snowstorm or hail by freezing the water in the air, or creating it by themselves? Do they struggle with controlling so much of the cold all at once, without letting it take over or spiral out of control?

While it’s considered reckless by some, Gero students view the survival in and exploration of an area colder than anything as a rite of passage. Just like Nam masters must let themselves be submerged, they too must let the elements take over them, and learn to thrive from it.

Show your character in an extremely cold area. Do they pick a mountain, or perhaps a glacier? Do they focus on survival, not wanting to freeze to death; or are they exploring, letting the cold take them where they must go? Does it feel as though their Aether is freezing from the inside, and does it bring pride -- or apprehension? Are they changed from this?
