An artificial winter that is intended to last forever, or at least a very long time. Winter is usually considered the least desirable season: the short days and cold weather can be deadly to humans and animals alike, and no food can be grown. Because of this, causing a winter that never ends is a common goal for a villain. Of course, not only villains have this in their bag of tricks. Sometimes a character or object causes this just by existing. Such a character is not necessarily a villain, but will often be an antagonist nonetheless. Expect to see a member of The Fair Folk or another creature with Blue-and-Orange Morality in this role. In more realistic works, this might be caused by enough material in the atmosphere blocking off the light of the Sun, such as that from nuclear or volcanic fallout or the result of a large enough meteor striking the Earth. In Speculative Fiction, it's more likely to be the work of aliens or a wizard. Places that have naturally long winters, like ice planets, are not examples. Can be caused by an Empathic Environment or a Fisher King. A Sub-Trope of Weather Dissonance and Sister Trope to The Night That Never Ends and Spring Is Late. Not to be confused with Frozen in Time. Characters may suffer from a Winter of Starvation. For truly apocalyptic cases of this, see Glacial Apocalypse. |

In Wynncraft, the Nesaak Forest and the Ice Canyon are permanently snow-laden, all year round. This was the work of Theorick Twain, who froze the formerly-temperate region to protect it from the corruption that had already seized his mind. | |

All That Glitters (Othellia) kicks off when the royal family of Corona, where Anna is staying, gets a message from a neighboring kingdom that they're suffering from another magical blizzard has appeared in the middle of June and that it's spreading fast. Anna spends the first part of the story searching for answers on where it came from and how to stop it. While she succeeds, the story makes it clear that the storm, which hit several southern kingdoms, had serious consequences, including interfering with food production and killing people. | |

Changeling: The Dreaming: The "Endless Winter" is more metaphysical in nature, tied to a fae view of the seasons of Ages, and the upcoming 6th Age is looking really really bad. Namely, the changelings view the current world, run through with disbelief, cynicism, and disappointment, as the "Autumn" world, where dreams are dying but the spark of imagination remains. Winter is a theoretical time where dreams and hope and imagination are all but dead. | |

The Colony (2013): In the future, the Earth has been plunged into such a winter for decades as a result of weather-controlling machines meant to reverse Climate Change working a little too well before they shut down. As a result, the planet's surface is a frozen wasteland covered in a neverending global snowstorm, and the only things which grow now are livestock and crops with artificial sunlight in the remaining humans' shelters (and even these are implied to be failing). | |

My Little Pony: My Little Pony 'n Friends: In "Baby, It's Cold Outside", King Charlatan uses a machine to amplify his power over cold and freeze the entire world. That way, all lesser creatures will die and the world will be a paradise for penguins such as himself. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Hearth's Warming Eve" revolves around the tale of a terrible and uncontrollable winter in the setting's distant past. Evil spirits known as Windigoes are the cause, attracted by the different species' distrust of and discontent toward each other. It causes famines so awful that the leaders of each tribe, with their respective assistants, migrate to a new land — but the Windigoes just follow them there, too. It's finally stopped when the bossy, hateful leaders become encased in ice, and their three assistants amicably make amends. "The Crystalling" nearly has this happen when the Crystal Heart is destroyed, courtesy of the power of baby Princess Flurry Heart's crying, which causes the collapse of the magical protection that keeps the Crystal Empire livable and sheltered from the vicious weather of the Frozen North. As a result, frigid cold and vicious storms begin to pour into the Empire, threatening to freeze it over and forcing its citizens to abandon it to the ice and snow. Fortunately, this is averted when the protagonists manage to repair the Crystal Heart and reset the magical barrier. |

Lady Astronaut: Played with. In 1952, a huge meteorite hits the ocean off the east coast of the USA, destroying Washington D.C. and much of the eastern seaboard. This initially results in an impact winter for about five years or so, which is intense enough to dissolve the Soviet Union. However, because the meteorite hit water, it introduced a huge amount of water vapor into the atmosphere. Water vapor is a greenhouse gas, and we quickly learn that the ensuing runaway greenhouse effect will render Earth uninhabitable after about fifty or so years. | |

In Spinning Silver, the winters in Lithvas have gradually been getting longer and worse until the Staryk King finally succeeds in keeping spring from happening entirely by having Miryem transmute his fairy silver into gold, which traps the heat and light from the mortal world. She's pretty pissed when she realizes the reason for that task. However, he's doing it to keep his realm safe from the demon Chernobog, who happens to be residing in Lithvas' current tsar. Once this is illuminated, Miryem works with the King to defeat him. The Staryk realm is also in a permanent winter; normal springtime temperatures are deadly to them. | |

The Twilight Zone (1959): Zig-Zagged in "The Midnight Sun". Most of the story is focused on the Earth getting hotter and hotter because it is moving closer and closer to the sun, with the ever-increasing and unbearable heat slowly killing off Earthly life and humanity with it. But it turns out it's All Just a Dream — in reality, the Earth is getting colder and colder because it's moving away from the sun, and will eventually become an uninhabitable ball of ice. From the protagonist's POV, this is a Happy Ending. | |

In Endless Legend this is the inevitable fate of the planet Auriga as the game progresses, with each winter being harder and longer. The endgoal of every faction is to find some way to survive the impending winter as the planet dies, such as leaving the planet altogether, hibernating until the planet recovers, or reversing the cycle. | |

Pathfinder: Irrisen (Fantasy Counterpart Culture of fairy-tale Russia) has had this problem since Baba Yaga conquered it. While the reason why she conquered it is canonically established note the ruling matriarchy is descended from her, and she swings by Golarion every century to take the then-reigning queen and drain her life essence to preserve her immortality, her reasons for freezing it over permanently seem to be For the Evulz. The winter witches insist on keeping it that way, which is why the primary underground freedom fighting group call themselves "The Heralds of Summer's Return". The unnatural winter is noted to have had devastating effects on both local society and environments — since there is no growing season anymore, most plants have been forcefully dormant since Irrisen's founding and no large-scale cultivation is possible, making Irrisen extremely dependent on food and lumber imports and on the winteryew tree, a magical plant introduced by Baba Yaga during the conquest which is capable of growing edible seeds and bark year-round. It's openly stated that the winteryews are the only reason Irrisen wildlife didn't die out en masse. The eleventh adventure path, Reign of Winter, fittingly enough involves the current Queen of Irrisen attempting to spread her kingdom's Endless Winter across the entire planet. Triaxus, the seventh planet of the setting's solar system, has an orbit that requires 317 Golarion years to make one circuit. Consequently, its seasons last for generations, and both the wildlife and the natives ryphorian people have had to adapt to the periodic onset of intense, century-long winters that make farming impossible, choke the seas with ice, and force many creatures into dormancy. This is naturally balanced by the fact that the summers are just as long. Notably, the onset of summer, while welcome, isn't any less dangerous than the winter itself — the sudden rush of meltwater as a century's worth of snowfall melts over a few years causes floods, drastic rises in sea level and powerful storms, problems compounded by the emergence of hordes of dormant predators roused from hibernation. These seasonal extremes also impact the power of the dragon warlords of Triaxus' Drakelands; while the red, green, and blue dragons, creatures of fire, vegetation, and warm climes, are dominant over the warm season, the ice-breathing and normally barbaric white dragons rise to power over the long winters. |

City of No End: Due to an ancient catastrophe leveling the eastern region of the City and leaving it exposed to the elements, the eastern Wastes suffer from constant cold. Leaking water from the shattered plumbing of the wrecked skyscrapers has caused massive glaciers to form, and most humans in this region have to live in the walls of massive steam vents. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: The epic spell ice age does Exactly What It Says on the Tin and lasts until it's dispelled. Frostburn, a sourcebook detailing adventuring in the Grim Up North, describes the fimbulwinter spell, which forces an area of several miles into unnatural winter conditions. The major iceheart magic item, in addition to granting ice-based magic powers to its wielder, automatically casts fimbulwinter once per day, and if left alone can plunge even tropical regions into endless winter. The supplement Dungeon Master's Guide 2 has the Killing Frost of Ghulurak, which is meant to end the world by freezing it in an eternal ice age. Father Llymic, one of the Elder Evils, aims to do this alongside The Night That Never Ends. Should he be released from his prison, the Sun will start rising later and later and setting earlier and earlier every day until it will cease appearing at all. This will come with a corresponding drop in temperature as the Sun's warmth vanishes, plunging the planet into an ever-worsening ice age. Should Father Llymic not be stopped, the world will become a lifeless ball of ice that will never know light or warmth again. The adventure module Icewind Dale Rime Of The Frostmaiden has the eponymous location, an arctic tundra within Northwest Faerûn, suffering from this thanks to Auril, the malevolent goddess of winter. Ever since moving to Icewind Dale to live amongst mortals, she had resorted to freezing everything and everyone in the region for her own pleasure. The curse can only be lifted if the adventurers manage to slay Auril or her roc companion which she uses to fly above and cast her nightly spell. Ravenloft: While all the islands of the Darklord Meredoth's Domain of Nebligtode are unreasonably cold considering that they're at the southern end of the Nocturnal Sea, the one where he makes his lair, Todstein, is so cold as to be considered uninhabitable, just as Meredoth likes it. The Domain of Vorostokov, part of the Frozen Reaches cluster, is stuck in a perpetual snowy winter, making its Darklord, the Loup du Noir Gregor Zolnik, desperate to feed his people; unfortunately for him, the endless winter and his Darklord curse means that there's only one type of meat he can easily hunt for... Inverted with Markovia; despite being the same northerly latitude as Lamordia, the coldest Domain of the Core, the Domain has an incongruously tropical island clime. |

Frozen: All That Glitters (Othellia) kicks off when the royal family of Corona, where Anna is staying, gets a message from a neighboring kingdom that they're suffering from another magical blizzard has appeared in the middle of June and that it's spreading fast. Anna spends the first part of the story searching for answers on where it came from and how to stop it. While she succeeds, the story makes it clear that the storm, which hit several southern kingdoms, had serious consequences, including interfering with food production and killing people. In Fireside Tale, Hans murders Elsa and the winter doesn't end with her death. He just murders the only person who could undo the magic, making the winter truly endless. In Kingdom of Isolation, Anna doesn't survive her Heroic Sacrifice, and in her grief, Elsa loses her grip on reality and keeps Arendelle in permanent winter. It ends when she's killed, though. |

The Wheel of Time: Inverted. The Dark One uses his influence to make it eternal summer in order to burn out the world and kill the plants with heat. To counter this, the main characters seek and eventually find an object that controls the weather and use it to start winter. In order to balance things, they have to make the winter much harsher and longer than usual. Winter comes earlier, lasts longer, and grows more bitterly cold each year, as an effect of the ever-loosening prison of the Dark One. Famine becomes a major problem in the series. This is played straight in the first installment in the series, where it's not the dead of winter, but spring/the growing season doesn't truly come until Rand defeats The Dark One in psychic combat and lessens his influence on the world. | |

The Elder Scrolls: The northernmost continent of Nirn is Atmora. In ancient times, it was home to the Atmorans, a race of men with Barbarian Tribe and proto-Horny Vikings traits. Thousands of years prior to when the games in the main series take place, Atmora experienced the "Frost Fall", a mysterious gradual cooling which quickly rendered it uninhabitable to intelligent life. Most of the Atmorans migrated south to northern Tamriel, settling in modern-day Skyrim and interbreeding with Tamriel's native Nedic humans to create the modern Nords (and possibly all races of Men save the Redguards, though sources greatly conflict and are heavily biased). Reports from the 2nd and 3rd Eras indicate that Atmora is now completely frozen over, with no sign of intelligent life. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: The world's seasons are unnaturally long (Word of God is that their length is caused by magic), and as such winters can last for years on end. It's not uncommon for a child to have been born and raised knowing only the darkness of winter in their early years. There are oral traditions of an infamously brutal winter, the Long Night, that lasted for generations. Legend says it was caused by the demons known only as the Others and should they return to invade Westeros, they will cause a winter that never ends. In the later books of the series, the summer that has lasted for the entire series up until that point draws to an end in favor of what promises to be a particularly long and brutal winter — the frigid blizzards that begin to hit the North in A Dance with Dragons, which last for days on end and effectively force the ongoing war to a standstill through the sheer amount of snow and brutal weather they bring, are referred to by the locals as being "only Autumn's kiss". This is implied to be at least related to the Others, who have been reemerging and marching south over the course of the series after millennia of inactivity. The northernmost region of Westeros is dubbed "the Land of Always Winter", which presumably is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. This is also implied to be the region where the Others come from. |

Magic: The Gathering: On Kaldheim, this is used to enforce the curse on the Kannah clan. When Kannah try to venture past the Adelgard, they are followed by bitter winter conditions and constant snowfall that never abate, which quickly make travel impossible and force them to head back into the woods. The site where they believe they were first cursed, the Cursed Tree at the Aldergard's edge, is covered in snow throughout the year. Early in the game's history, the Ice Age block covered... well, an ice age that affected the continent of Terisiare for a few millennia following the cataclysmic end of the Brothers' War between Urza and Mishra. |

Frostpunk: A series of massive volcanic eruptions and also maybe a meteor knocking Earth out of its normal orbit caused the global temperature to drop precipitously. Minus 20 Celsius is the warmest temperature you'll see, and it's going to get colder. A lot colder. And the city must survive. Good luck, Captain. | |

Ravenloft: While all the islands of the Darklord Meredoth's Domain of Nebligtode are unreasonably cold considering that they're at the southern end of the Nocturnal Sea, the one where he makes his lair, Todstein, is so cold as to be considered uninhabitable, just as Meredoth likes it. The Domain of Vorostokov, part of the Frozen Reaches cluster, is stuck in a perpetual snowy winter, making its Darklord, the Loup du Noir Gregor Zolnik, desperate to feed his people; unfortunately for him, the endless winter and his Darklord curse means that there's only one type of meat he can easily hunt for... Inverted with Markovia; despite being the same northerly latitude as Lamordia, the coldest Domain of the Core, the Domain has an incongruously tropical island clime. |

Malazan Book of the Fallen: The Jaghut were fond of bringing about ice ages. The Elder God Mael calls ice "the Jaghut answer to everything". When the Imass, whom some Jaghut Tyrants had enslaved, declared war on their masters and put themselves to the task of hunting down and killing every last Jaghut, the Jaghut called down an ice age so that the Imass — who were hunters and gatherers — would starve. The continent of Lether still sports geographically unusual glaciers and ice wastes as a result of Gothos freezing the place at the request of Mael, effectively blocking the way for the dead to pass on and making the creation of undead easy-peasy on Lether. | |

Game of Thrones: Winters can last for years and there are oral traditions of a winter that lasted a generation the last time the White Walkers invaded and attempted to cause a winter that never ends (which is also brought up in the prophecy of "The Song of Ice and Fire" in House of the Dragon). Word of God is that the unnatural seasons are caused by magic, though whether it is the Walkers' magic or something else remains ambiguous. | |

Recess: School's Out: Dr. Benedict tries to cause this after reading that schoolchildren in colder climates have higher test scores. He attempts it by using a tractor beam stolen from the military when the Moon is closest to the Earth; the plan entailed firing it at that point and moving it into another orbit, thereby causing summer vacation to be erased and children to stay inside and study, ultimately getting better test scores and him elected as President. This was more serious than the previous Disney examples- whereas those would be limited to mere countries, he would've plunged the entire world into a new Ice Age. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Hearth's Warming Eve" revolves around the tale of a terrible and uncontrollable winter in the setting's distant past. Evil spirits known as Windigoes are the cause, attracted by the different species' distrust of and discontent toward each other. It causes famines so awful that the leaders of each tribe, with their respective assistants, migrate to a new land — but the Windigoes just follow them there, too. It's finally stopped when the bossy, hateful leaders become encased in ice, and their three assistants amicably make amends. "The Crystalling" nearly has this happen when the Crystal Heart is destroyed, courtesy of the power of baby Princess Flurry Heart's crying, which causes the collapse of the magical protection that keeps the Crystal Empire livable and sheltered from the vicious weather of the Frozen North. As a result, frigid cold and vicious storms begin to pour into the Empire, threatening to freeze it over and forcing its citizens to abandon it to the ice and snow. Fortunately, this is averted when the protagonists manage to repair the Crystal Heart and reset the magical barrier. |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy XIV: The region of Coerthas was plunged into an endless winter after the Calamity occurred. Due to the fall of Dalamud, Erozea's aether became totally screwed up. Corethas was once a lush green environment, but the Calamity turned into a winter wasteland that has only snow and ice. The people living in the region managed to adapt, but it also hinders their ability to effectively fight off the dragons. Final Fantasy Mystic Quest: One of the problems is the freezing of Aquaria, caused by the dimming of the Water Crystal. Benjamin and Phoebe have to restore its light to get rid of all the snow and ice. |

The surface of the world has been plunged into endless winter centuries ago in Arx Fatalis. Life and civilization only manage to continue in magically maintained systems of underground caverns. The game takes place in one of these and you never see the surface yourself. It is mentioned there are several such places, with specialized messengers risking the surface to traverse between them. The end of the game reveals that the winter is due to a cloud of dust and asteroids blocking the sun, implying it will in due time drift past and life can return to the surface. | |

Queens of Mewni: In her haste to create an endless summer to grow crops to pay off Mewni's massive debt, Celestia misread the spell and ended up creating this instead, which would end up defining her reign (hence her title, the Queen of Winter) and put Mewni on the verge of extinction. The worst part is, Word of God said had she ever gotten over the guilt she felt about casting the spell, it would have dispelled sooner. Since she never could, it took the royal wand passing to her daughter Meteora for the winter to disperse. | |

One of the options for GURPS After the End's "choose your own apocalypse" setup, whether from nuclear winter, a supervolcanic ash eruption, planetary climate change, or something else. | |

Honkai: Star Rail: The planet of Jarilo-VI was plunged into an ice age via a perpetual snow storm known as the "Eternal Freeze" about 700 years in the past that has rendered the planet nearly-inhospitable save for the city of Belobog. The Eternal Freeze was caused by the leader of the planet attempting to make a deal with a Stellaron to rid the planet of alien invaders. By the end of the Jarilo-VI storyline the Stellaron is sealed away, meaning that the snow storm is officially over though the planet is still ecologically devastated and will take centuries at least before it can fully recover. | |

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt features the White Frost, a possibly-alive force of nature that has turned countless worlds into frozen, lifeless husks. The Wild Hunt's world is currently undergoing such an apocalypse, and them fleeing it is the driving force behind the plot of the game. | |

Everything Turns to Gold: The start of one sets in soon after the beginning of the fic. After the death of the Ender Dragon, Xornoth has become powerful enough to summon a massive snowstorm, blotting out the sun and causing heavy snowfall even in the desert kingdoms of Mezalea and Pixandria. | |

Helliconia, set on the planet of the same name, involves a world in a highly elliptical orbit around its sun. Its summers last decades, but its winter lasts for over a thousand years. It's so severe that it acts as a de facto Reset Button on the civilizations of the planet. | |
