* ''VideoGame/DungeonCrawlStoneSoup'':
** Merfolk aquamancers can manipulate all states of water. Not only can they drown players with torrents of water, but they can also hurl razor-sharp shards of ice, as well as fling balls of scalding steam.
** Player merfolk are good at learning [[AnIcePerson Ice Magic]], because, according to their species description, "their mystical relationship with water makes it easier for them to use poison and ice magic, which use water occasionally as a material component."

* ''ComicBook/XMen'': On the surface, Iceman's power simply appears to be control over ice. However, his true potential allows him complete control over moisture. A story in the 90s had Emma Frost[[note]]who is a telepath with no ice-related abilities despite what her name implies[[/note]] taking over Iceman's body and pulling off all kinds of amazing feats with water, such as travelling through a river and using the water to increase his body mass. In "The Draco", Iceman was able to reform his body after being decapitated in ice form by using water from a demon opponent.

** The WATER-attribute encapsulates several ice-/snow-themed dragons. To wit, "Snowdust Dragon", "White Night Dragon" (a giant blue, crystalline dragon), "Snow Dragon", "Blizzard Dragon", "Dragon Ice", the Trishula-archetype ("Trishula, Zero Dragon of the Ice Barrier", "Trishula, the Dragon of Icy Imprisonment" and "Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier") and "Invoked Cocytus" (the latter one is a bit of a GeniusBonus, since Cocytus is the frozen prison of Hell in ''Dante's Inferno'').

* The ''TabletopGame/{{Pokemon}} Trading Card Game'' groups both Water Pokémon and Ice Pokémon within the Water category and both require Water Energy to attack. However, they are still distinguished from each other: Pokémon who are Water-type in the video games have Lightning as their Weakness in the card game, whereas Pokémon who are Ice-type in the video games have Metal as their Weakness instead. (Pokémon who are Water ''and'' Ice in the video games, like Lapras and Walrein, can go either way.)

Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'': Poseidon, the Greek god of the seas, appears as an antagonist in ''VideoGame/GodOfWarIII'', manipulating water, which is his attribute/domain in the original myths. However, in the prequel, ''VideoGame/GodOfWarAscension'', Kratos can be granted a boon/magic powerup from Poseidon named "Ice of Poseidon": the player can release ice attacks at the enemies. This is unlike the original myths, wherein Poseidon does not have any control over ice.
