EARLY LIFE

Oliver Thomas Black was born in London, England, on January 13, 1997. He lived a typical middle-class childhood in the United Kingdom, until his mutation began to reveal itself during puberty.
None of Oliver's direct relatives are known to possess any notable form of mutations or altered genetics, the mutant DNA most likely lay dormant for several generations before it showed up again, which means that the exact origin or event responsible for the mutation remains a complete unknown. In this case the mutation that is being refered to is a variation of the glacier archetype.

At the age of 16 Black filed for emancipation and moved to the United States of America, where he continued his history of transfering from school to school for a while, until finally ending up at Westside High in Millennium City. Oliver took up crime fighting soon after that, believing it would help him come to grips with his new reality and gain a handle on his nascent abilities.
Although he has walked the fine line between heroism and vigilantism in the past, Black Ice is currently on good terms with the Millennium City Police Department. Having lend his aid in the solving of numerous cases of street crime as well as a number of investigations into underworld activity over the past few years. In his last year of high school Black decided to pursue crime fighting as a career.


PERSONALITY

Oliver Black is a troubled individual, displaying at least a few character traits and patterns of behavior that correspond with his mutant appearance. While generally an amiable young man, his attitude towards others can sometimes come across as cold or distant. He is not intentionally unkind to anyone, he just does not warm up to people easily. But once he does, his loyalty is solid.

In the field Black is able to keep a cool head by relying on scientific knowledge or rational thought. His quick thinking and common sense allow him to come up with ingenious practical solutions in the heat of the moment. Black is also known to stubbornly place the safety of others before his own wellbeing, performing daring feats and outright reckless stunts if the situation asks for it.

Despite being considered one of the more promising up-and-coming young heroes, already having his name attached to a brand, Black does not actively seek out the spotlight and prefers to keep to himself. He has actually gotten rather good at evading the press and he seldom agrees to do an interview, much to the frustration of his sponsors who would like nothing more than to see Oliver embrace his status as a minor celebrity. Instead his agent frequently has to deal with confused or disgruntled photographers who keep having difficulties with iced-over camera lenses.

Ice Wallofice.png Cryogenic Powers

Black Ice possesses the ability to create, direct and manipulate ice or any substance below its freezing point. This gives him the power to cause extreme drops in temperature, spontaneously freeze things solid and to exercise near complete control over frozen substances or ice formations. The ice created through the use of these abilities also has a slightly higher density and strength than regular, naturally formed ice crystals. Most notably the layer of crystalized ice that covers Black's own body when he is in his mutant state.

While these abilities do not require direct physical contact, using these powers over longer distances appears to be more straining and does not allow Black Ice to exercise the same level of control. It has been estimated that Black Ice is capable of reaching temperatures as low as several hundred degrees below Celsius when maintaining direct physical contact with his target.


Ice Iceform.png Metahuman Physiology

Black Ice is able to withstand extreme weather conditions, particularly those below freezing point, and possesses physical traits that are beyond the human norm, such as heightened endurance, fortitude and stamina. As well as having an abnormally high threshold for pain. In his mutant state Black is even able to withstand a certain force of impact and pressure, rendering most regular ammunition useless against him. There is also a minor increase in muscular strength, as well as reflex, but nowhere near the point of deserving to be called superhuman qualities.

Due to the significantly reduced body temperature, Black Ice is able to bypass most forms of heat detection. It will also take much longer for many forms of poison and most viruses to take effect, especially if skin contact or ingestion is required for them to be effective. Some of these types of biochemical weaponry may not be able to bypass the subject's mutant physiology at all.

QUOTES & COMMENTS SECTION


"A cooler guy I've never known." - Prankenstein

"Hsssssss...Rrraaawrrr!" (roughly translates to "This @$$hole tried to kill me!") - Miss Pussycakes

"We are not sure if...Oliver acts so uptight on purpose, or if...he is simply always that way. However, we do admire...his discipline." / "Oliver has a...cool...accent. Shame that he's always so...cold...to people! Heehee." - Galactigal/Samantha, respectively

"He seems nervous around me most of the time, and he's very guarded. He's... not a bad guy though." - Mercy

"Oliver's pretty nice... I mean, he's pretty friendly, but... he seems to be kinda defensive. Not that it makes him mean or anything, it's just...! Erm, nevermind. I do wish he'd stop with the time puns... Maybe it's time I fight back with ice ones." - Stopwatch

"A good guy I'd say. I think he has his heart in the right place. Oh! We're pretty good friends I'd say, we certainly don't argue at least. Though he seems a bit negative about his powers sometimes I think." - Bee

"Beautifully dangerous. It's so sad he's afraid of the dark." - Shadow Blade

"I was worried when he got so mad at me for checking up on him. But over time, we've really gotten along I think. He has a lot going on in his life and it must be difficult for him to deal with. I hope he knows we always have his back." - Heartbeat

"I LIKE Ollie. A lot. Just, uhhh... don't tell him I said that, okay?" - Lash

"Oliver is... hm, obnoxious? A bit immature? Kind of insensitive? Probably all of those things. He has a lovely accent, though, which lets me overlook a lot of negatives.. I guess he's an alright bloke at times though, eh wot?" - Whitecloak

"Ollie tries way too hard to be all serious, but I kinda figure that has more to do with whatever happened back in the UK. Seems like a decent guy though." - Celerity

"He's a solid guy, even though it's kinda obvious he has something hanging over him most of the time, but just cos you've got an accent doesn't automatically make you all that and a bag of Doritos, dude. Seriously." - Boy Wonder

"Young, brash and with quite a lot left to learn. Still, his heart is at the right spot and he is a clever one. A lot of potential there." - Black Knight

"He's a cool dude." - Moonlighter

"I enjoy his company immensely, his dry wit is always appreciated." - Stegoboy

"When he's not all wrapped up in his snowcone, Ollie's still got two cold shoulders. But I get it. Doesn't matter - he's mi compadre. If we're walking into Hell, it pays to have a good fire extinguisher." - Kid Ballistic

"He's the icebro, the snowman, the bringer of the cool. He's my main man, Ollie boy! Still a stick in the mud, but I'll make him into the awesome that he can and SHOULD be." - Maverick

"I appreciate his dry sense of humor. He's very resourceful, and excels at thinking on his feet." - Cait Sith

"Ever my competition for the ol' black and blue. But seriously, he's got good leadership skills and I'd willingly follow him into battle." - Cobalt Crush

"For someone so young, he seems to really have a handle on his powers and the abilities of his teammates. I bet Sparrowhawk has her eye on this one. Maybe she's just waiting till he graduates high school, or something." - Tesseract

"For someone so skeptical of magic and religion, I thought that it would be difficult to come to an understanding. I think we have, both simply agreeing to disagree. I'm fine with that. It's my hope that I can show him that not all Catholics, or Christians in general, have negative views of mutants." - Faith

"I like to think Ollie's cool with me hanging around. I just have to remember that the blue stuff ISN'T Kool-Aid." - Communick

"Whatever Oliver lacks in boldness, he makes up for in amazing intellect. His chemical knowledge is pretty intense, but I hope he learns to embrace his uniqueness. He's a great leader for the team, and honestly, someone I could probably learn a couple of things from." - Strong Suit
