Veoddyn, The Ice Titan
Name: Veoddyn
Contact information: form.of.breaking@gmail.com
Character's name: Veoddyn, the Ice Titan
Age Upon Entering/At Death: Born here.
Age Now: 156 years
Race: Elemental
Appearance:

In his Ice Elemental body, Veoddyn stands at an impressive 8' 9" tall. He weighs 650 pounds and is very ominous when up close. His face looks like an eagles head, the beak always giving off a light mist with each breath, and behind that spikes of ice rise from this neck and back to look like a mane of a lion frozen in place. He has a pair of massive arms, and a long spiked tail. His legs are stout, able to carry him the distance, and his white eyes glow when angered or concentrating.
Personality
He has a cold heart towards outsiders and takes charge when he can. He does not sit back and watch a battle rage, but participates for the side he thinks is the most honorable and just. As a person who has worn out all usefulness in his own eyes, Veoddyn is searching for someone to follow, someone to accept him for the being that he is and look at him without running in fear. He longs for a purpose, for it is his belief that he must still be in the world to do something, and he wants to find out what that something is. Really and truly wants to be accepted by someone for the person beneath the ice, rather than the demon on the outside.
Biography:
Long ago, Veoddyn was an ice wielding mage, trained in the arts of ice magic and talented in sorcery he quickly became a master of its properties and the ways to wield it. He and 5 companions, all trained in either combat or the elements, charged to the north, near the roof of the world, to vanquish an Ice Demon that had been sending its foul creatures into the lands of men, and killing anything that lived, leaving nothing but a frozen corpse.
They collided with the forces of the Ice Demon, and eventually cornered him in his own cave. They killed the creature, but with his last moments the Ice Demon placed a powerful curse upon them, so they would know what it was like to be a mass of animated ice. The cavern closed in around the warriors, and they where trapped there for 30 years.
Slowly, one by one, the warriors began to change. They no longer hungered for food or thirsted for water, and ice began to take the place of flesh, muscle and bone. Soon they all looked like Veoddyn does now, but Veoddyn, who was a master of the element of ice, held out of the curse the longest, and one day suddenly and violently changed.
They, using their new found powers over the element, dug their way out after 30 years, and simply, headed south. To their surprise, they did not melt to normal sunlight or slight heat on their back, and they found wherever they went they left frozen footprints. They traveled south trying to get to their homes and became lost, as the landscape had changed in 30 years, and their memories of the way home had faded, and wandered into the surrounding villages.
At first the villagers did not know what to think of the 6 Ice Elementals, and they ultimately decided to destroy the creatures thinking they where demons that could potentially bring harm to them as the Ice Demon before had. They sent forth mercenaries and warriors alike, all bearing torches and other fiery implements. All but Veoddyn where slain, and he fled north once again. Alone, he walks endlessly, not sure what to do with himself.
Powers, if any:
Ice Construct - Ranging anywhere from a weapon or shield to a massive spiraling tower, if given enough time and energy, Veoddyn can create mostly anything he can architecturally conceive, but the larger the object the longer it takes, and if it needs to be summoned quickly, it takes more energy than normal. A shield would take about 10-15 seconds to make, but can be made in 1 second with substantial drain on his energy reserves.
Alter Body – Anything from making his claws bigger, changing his fingers into tools or keys, making his tail longer, or even changing the clarity of the ice that makes up his body, Veoddyn can do a wide variety of things with his own being, allowing for a diverse spectrum for useful reasons to have him around.
Beam of Ice - Either from the hands, eyes, or mouth, this beam has the capacity to freeze things on impact, and depending on the source and the amount of energy he puts into it determines the dimensions and strength of the beam. This ability is by far the most draining of Veoddyn's arsenal.
Super Natural Strength and Toughness - Being an elemental, Veoddyn has a strength far beyond the capacity of a human, and his size is a good testemant to this. He can hurl boulders that would take 10 men to lift a good distance without hurting himself. Everything has a counterbalance though, as Veoddyn is particularly slow in his movements unless outright charging. The ice that makes up Veoddyn’s body is far denser than that of normal ice, making him unusually tough, but again, he cannot keep up with the speed of most creatures in close hand to hand combat and instead relies on brute force and ranged attacks.
Blessed Cold - Repairs parts of Veoddyn that are melted or destroyed, takes time and energy to mend larger things, while not much effort at all on small wounds. However, he cannot perform an attack or defend well while healing.
Weapons, if any: None, aside the ones he creates.
Additional information: None, really.
