Harike's Crystal Breath

Harike's Crystal Breath was a Mastery 7 spell which encased in solid crystal the target, who must be dead or near death. The power of this spell allowed samurai dedicated to the Crab cause to remain useful, even in death. The target's physical body was not the target and therefore was unaffected by the spell. The Crystal Samurai would come to life after several days. The spell was cast by Kuni Harike to his yojimbo Kuni Ryute during their heroic fight against the Kusatte Iru in 634.
