Iced Shell (絶対氷結(アイスドシェル) Aisudo Sheru) is an Ice Magic Spell.

Description[]

Iced Shell is a technique that uses the spirit and the physical body of the user to freeze the target into a block of ice. It is virtually unmeltable as it is not made of typical ice. It converts the user's body into the form of ice, destroying their body in the process. As explained by Gray, the Caster is not "dead" but alive in the form of ice.[1] Due to this, even Ultear could not use her Lost Magic, Arc of Time, to reverse it effects as the ice itself was a living thing and therefore could not be reversed or advanced through time. It is shown to be extremely durable as it did not melt for around 10 years, though Ur stated it can stay the same for all eternity. It also seems that because the ice itself is made up of the spirit and body of the caster, the target is gradually weakened and then worn away by the ice encasing it.

The main difference between this and Ice-Make is that the hands must make an "X" sign, with the right arm above the left arm. The right palm faces down while the left palm faces up.[2] The user can also create a clone and have it use Iced Shell in their place.[3] Currently, the only known method of melting the Iced Shell is with a Moon Drip, itself a lengthy, time consuming magical process. A stronger and more deadly version of the spell is Lost Iced Shell, which will also erase the caster's existence from everyone's memories.

The spell can still have its usefulness even if not fully casted, such as simply forming the stance to release the spells magic power to freeze anything surrounding the user, effective in breaking free from traps.[4]
