"WHAT'S NUKED, SCOOBY-DOOMSDAY?" — ICE CREAM GHOST

Ice cream ghosts are sentient colonies of frigid, monochromatic protoplasm that "skate" across ground and sky.  Though twee of name and garish of coloration, they are devious schemers that relish sowing panic and discord.  The beings' susurrant voices drip with malice.

Ice cream ghosts slash with blistering claws that entomb victims in paralyzing frost.  The creatures also leave treacherous slicks in their wake.

Combining their floating with abilities to squeeze through openings and compress into tight spaces, ice cream ghosts are masters of stealth and surveillance.  And their amorphousness makes them wholly immune to physical damage (from fisticuffs, conventional melee weapons / firearms, crushing attacks, etc).

Ice cream ghosts always operate in trios.
