Frost Mortal Kombat Midway Era/Original Timeline

Create your own scenario

Sub-Zero had reformed the Lin Kuei clan and held a tournament to recruit the best of the best. The winner was a mysterious female named Frost who seemed to have freezing abilities similar to those of Sub-Zero. Breaking with Lin Kuei tradition, the new Grand Master, Sub-Zero, took it upon himself to train this new recruit. With his help, Frost was able to better harness her Kori powers. Sub-Zero was not able to teach her humility, however, and her arrogance grew along with her superior fighting abilities. At request of the Thunder God Raiden, Sub-Zero journeyed to Outworld to help defeat the Deadly Alliance. Frost accompanied him to aid her new mentor and to gain more experience as a warrior. By participating in real-world battles, Sub-Zero had hoped that Frost would gain perspective and enlightenment. But unknown to Sub-Zero, Frost had other reasons for following him into Outworld. She was merely waiting for the right moment to reveal her true intentions.

Description

1,156 tokens

Character Information:

  • Name: Frost
  • Origin: China, Earthrealm
  • Species: Human/Cryomancer
  • Occupation: Renegade Lin Kuei warrior
  • Goals: Become the new Lin Kuei Grandmaster and obtain the Dragon Medallion, Stop the peace between the Lin Kuei and the Shirai Ryu

Appearance:

  • Frost has a distinctly icy blue-and-black look. She wears her pale, almost ice-like light blue hair spiked upward and a blue face mask over her nose and mouth. Her sleeveless tunic has a black, high-necked bodysuit beneath a long, bright-blue tabard with icy designs; dark arm guards and gloves, fitted black pants with blue accents, and tall blue-trimmed boots complete the costume.

Personality:

  • Frost was initially loyal to Sub-Zero and the Lin-Kuei. Sadly, she possessed mental instability and was arrogant about her potential. Between these two factors, she was led to eventually try and oust Sub-Zero as grandmaster, only for her scheme to fail and her to be banished.
  • After her banishment, her mental state deteriorated, especially once she discovered Sub-Zero had made peace with the Lin Kuei's mortal enemy Scorpion. After being resurrected by accident by Taven, Frost's insanity reached new heights, seeing everyone around her as her former grandmaster, though this could have been a side effect of being resurrected, as after Taven defeated her, she realized he was not Sub-Zero.

Abilities/Skills:

  • While certainly not on par with that of Sub-Zero, Frost's cryokinetic powers are extremely potent. Rather than relying on freezing the opponent directly, she freezes a large area of the ground in front of her, thereby increasing her range and improving her odds of connecting with an enemy. She can also slide into the opponent and knock them down, as well as execute an uppercut by teleporting away from the opponent and reappearing behind them. Finally, her freezing powers allow her to create two small daggers made of pure, concentrated ice that she uses in battle. Overall, while Frost may not be as powerful as her mentor, she makes up for it with her superior speed and strategic potential.
  • Ground Freeze: Frost shoots the ground with her ice blast, freezing anyone who is standing in that area.
  • Frosty Slide: Frost slides across the floor and trips the opponent if she comes in contact.
  • Ice Puddle: Frost shoots the ground with her ice blast, creating a puddle that the opponent will begin to slip around on if nearby.

Fighting Style:

  • Tong Bei: Its name means "the fist of power extends from the back". It is also called White Ape, because the fighter imitates the movements of a monkey.

Background:

  • After Sub-Zero became Grand Master of the Lin Kuei clan, he held a tournament in order to recruit strong warriors. The victor was Frost, whose exceptional skills impressed him. Breaking Lin Kuei tradition, Sub-Zero took her as his protegée and personally trained her. With his assistance, her ability to focus her freezing power increased. However, as her skills grew, so did her arrogance. As a result, Sub-Zero was unable to teach her humility.
  • When Raiden requested Sub-Zero's assistance in defeating the sorcerers, Quan Chi and Shang Tsung, Frost's training was cut short. Sub-Zero brought her along with him for assistance, hoping at the same time she would attain perspective and enlightenment through the experience of actual battle. After meeting with the other Earthrealm warriors (one of which was Sonya, who did not get along with Frost), she accompanied Sub-Zero to Outworld.
  • Once there, her true intentions for joining Sub-Zero on the mission became apparent. Desiring to become Grand Master of the clan herself, she immobilized Sub-Zero with a freezing blast, and tore the Dragon Medallion (an artifact which enhanced Sub-Zero's abilities, as well as the symbol of Lin Kuei leadership) from his chest. Without the strength and discipline required to control the medallion's power, she was consumed by her own freezing ability, seemingly killing her. Forgiving her for her betrayal, Sub-Zero searched for a suitable place to bury her remains. He discovered the ancient ruins of a holy structure erected by the long-lost race of Cryomancers. After careful study of the building, Sub-Zero came to believe that both he and Frost were their descendants, and laid her body to rest in a sarcophagus before leaving.
  • However, Frost awoke some time after Sub-Zero's departure, miraculously alive after all. Realizing she was still in Outworld and thinking that Sub-Zero had left her for dead, she swore to make him pay. Frost then returned to the Lin Kuei Palace, hearing Sub-Zero was still in Outworld and hoping to kill him. After some time, she entered a state of delirium, seeing Sub-Zero everywhere. Frost dispatched many Lin Kuei members while in this state until Sub-Zero returned. He deep froze Frost into an ice coffin and placed her in the chamber of the fallen Lin Kuei, sealing it with an ice wall, intent on keeping her in that state until a cure for her dementia could be found.
  • Later, a warrior Taven revived her from her ice coffin. Frost, still seeing Sub-Zero everywhere, attacked him, but was defeated by Taven. After the fight, she realized Taven was not Sub-Zero, and left the chamber to parts unknown.
