Yet another Vrakmul alt. I noticed we didn't really have any cold based people, so I decided to fix that. This is yet another account for space based role play, who will only show up on the Earth quite rarely.
The Ice Hunter
Phrygus is a native of the iceworld of Vho, where the inhabitants possess incredible cryokinetic and cryogenic powers. Most of them use these powers primarily for transit, construction, and contributing to the defense of their worlds, but Phrygus was one of those who decided to go out into the wider galaxy out of an altruistic desire to help people while still making a living. Going out and taking only those jobs that fit his own sense of morality, Phrygus quickly became one of the best in the entire business, his abilities surpassing those of most of his own kind by leaps and bounds.
His adventures in space took him far and wide, working for and against all sorts of people and organizations. He's battled yellow, orange, and red lantern corps, the Skrull, the Kree, the Zolkri, the Milbots, The Urtraghian Space Pirates, the Electrical Protectorate, the Blazing Horde, and the nefarious Black Hand. He's worked for more open minded members of the Symaarian Imperium, the Keresh, the Novus, the Droid Republic, and more. While he has amassed a truly colossal fortune through his line of work, he doesn't spend much of it, preferring to live in a rather Spartan manner and focus on his job, rather than let creature comforts drag his focus down.
He was born to a nesting clutch for warriors, bred from the most combat able parents to make a better stock for soldiers, and proved to have remarkable traits all around, although this also came with a sort of arrogance natural to those raised to believe that they were special. But while Vhozon society was to some extent caste based, there were no penalties for switching one's caste, though such a decision had certain physical issues as the castes had grown into distinct subspecies over time. Thus, Phrygus had decided to go out into the wider universe to explore and make his fortune.
Vhozon society is built on a strong sense of honor and justice. So strong in fact, that many call them fanatically devoted to their own code. There is however, a problem, as the Vhozons do not believe that their own kind are bound by the codes and laws of other species, but that other species can still be expected to be bound by their standards at the discretion of the Vhozon in question. This has lead to several incidents between the Vhozon Judiciality and other major powers in the universe as some of their kind attempted to force their judgement on members of other governments.
While Phrygus isn't quite as fanatical as most, he is still quite strongly attatched to his species' honour system and hails the Vhozon's Grand Judicator as his sovereign. This strong sense of personal justice has often lead to him being ironically labeled a hothead, something only further reinforced by his strong desire to seek worthy opponents for battle, often veering off his objective to engage these powerful opponents on his own term, and though he usually defeats his enemies with his awe inspiring mastery of all things cold, he is frequently considered something of a loose cannon.
Recently, he has joined Jade's space adventuring party, and has frequently worked alongside Mirabel in many of her bodies, and has seen Rose die several times. He considers Jade and Rose to be two of his closest friends, and often plays card games with Ivanov, though he doesn't quite get what the deal is about communism. He's something of a celebrity in the cosmic scene, a well known hero in the stars who is nearly mythical in his status amongst the bounty hunting and space mercenary scene. He almost always gets the job done and he has single handedly felled entire armies before.
While he prefers the name Phrygus, he has gained the title of "The Ice Hunter" from the media, for quite obvious reasons. Some also jokingly call him the "Glacial Lantern" as some draw comparisons between his seeming total mastery over cold to the power a lantern wields. He is also learning control over darkness, and has elemental control over air and water along with the weather, further enhancing his incredible power. In melee, he is no less lethal, being incredibly strong, quick, agile, and durable. While he does wear powered armour, he disdains the need for most weapons, preferring his natural abilities to any gun.
Powers
Cryokinesis: Phrygus is one of the most powerful Cryokinetics known. He can generate temperatures as cold as absolute zero, encase entire small planets in ice, create animate Ice constructs, immediately put out planet wide blazes by robbing them of the heat they need to function, freeze projectiles out of the air, and more. If there are upper limits to his seemingly always increasing control over cold, he has not found them yet. He also frequently uses his power over cold to enhance his melee game such as by wrapping his fists in incredible cold, creating weapons from frozen over objects, and nigh impenetrable ice armour.
Hydrokinesis: Though weaker than his power over cold and rose's control over water, Phrygus is still a formadible "water bender" as many users of this power are called, capable of creating tsunamis and massive maelstroms to sink entire fleets, he uses this in combination with his Cryokinetic powers to always be able to have some liquids to freeze over his target.
Aerokinesis: Not quite as powerful as John's control over the winds, but still highly formadible, creating hypersonic windstorms and twisters with nothing more than his thoughts, tendrils of wind, swatting projectiles out of the sky with fierce and sudden gusts of wind, and ripping the breath out of the lungs of foes. When combined with the first three powers, Phrygus is capable of weather manipulation on a truly vast scale.
Umbrakinesis: Just as Phrygus can control cold, an absence of heat, he can also control darkness, an absence of light, forming blasts of dark energy, constructs of shadow matter, enhancing his blows, enhancing his armour, drawing life force into him, disappearing into the shadows and the like. Though he is just learning how to control darkness, it may one day become as formadible as his power over cold.
Better than human: Phrygus has class five hundred strength and durability, his reaction times are enormously quick, easily allowing her to think and act at computer like levels and outrun passenger jets, and has wolverine like regeneration. During adrenaline surges these impressive statistics can go up by a great deal. His senses are also significantly more sensitive across the board than those of a humans, adapted for a much harsher environment that was far more barren and dark, requiring the development of highly keen senses. He can add to his strength by drawing in energy from other sources, which massively expands the aura of cold around him by sucking the heat out of the area.
Healing factor: Phrygus is capable of healing himself at Abomination like rates, and can regrow lost limbs given enough time.
Immunity: Phrygus is immune to disease, poison, mind control, radiation, even of supernatural varieties, additionally Cold and Dark energy simply cannot hurt him, and his resistance to magic and psionics is simply astonishing. As she is immune to poison he is incapable of getting drunk. He can also breathe in space and underwater.
Fighting master: Having been a bounty hunter for three centuries, he is as skilled at combat as you would expect, having developed a unique fighting style all his own that makes use of his odd physiology and powers
Equipment
Power suit: Equipped with an incredibly durable power suit that doubles his physical strength and doubles his speed, this suit adds to his defence primarily by it's shielding, which uses the same three layer design used by John and Jade's, while the suit is not indestructible, it does boast impressive self repair systems. To add to his melee ability, the suit's hands end in indestructible blades capable of slicing through near anything. The helmet also comes equipped with an advance sensor and scanner suite.
