C-c-cold Breath makes its debut as an attack used by Psaro the Manslayer's final form. It deals between 100~140 ice damage to the entire party.

• In remake versions of the game, there are two variations of the breath and it can also be used by Foo Yung and Aamon in his final form. The version used by Aamon is much stronger, dealing 210-230 damage to the entire party. When Psaro and Aamon use the breath, it is emitted from both of their mouths.
