Iciclette, the frozen princess of Arizona. Three years ago she became aware she was a mutant when she caught a cold in July. Her cold turned quite literal as her body temperature dropped off the charts in the following weeks. Soon, the air around her caused bystanders to shiver and she could see her breath during the hottest days. Her room froze over and her body turned pale. In order to help their daughter, Robin's parents shipped her off to Paragon City, capital of the super hero world. There, they hoped, someone could at least keep her safe till she learned to control her powers.

Years have passes as Robin as grown accustomed to her powers....Well..a little bit. Living in a boarding house for young mutants, she's spent more time making friends and goofing off than learning to control her powers. She still calls her parents every day to keep them up to date on her progress. Little by little she's gaining the focus and control it takes to keep herself in check. The air surrounding her is still frigid, and she still leaves trails of ice where she walks when she's not paying attention. But she's made noticeable strides in learning how to control her powers from when she started.

Personality*

Iciclette is about as bubbly as her codename. I simple teenager from a boring state, she's always looking for things to get involved in. Whether that's events, activities, or her friends personal lives. Far from home she always has her cellphone handy and can often be found with it attached to her ear with someone on the other side, usually her mother. Even though she wears heavy clothing pretty much all day every day, she's constantly shivering from her low body temperature and lack of focus. She enjoys the company of other young mutants, primarily the ones with debilitating conditions like her own.

And be warned she'll be the first one to point out how selfish it is for non-showing mutants to complain about being "different". While her physical mutations may be minor, she can at least sympathize with the more..apparent..mutants, whether they have wings, scales, or tails. And nothing upsets her like a mutant who complains about having powers without any physical drawbacks.

Mutant Abilities*

Robin has the ability to drastically lower the temperature of the air and water around her, as well as her own body. Her core body temperature stays at a constant zero degrees Celsius without effort, and with a little concentration can be lowered even further to subzero numbers. She can also gather water out of the air and freeze it into heavy ice crystals which she can then shoot into opponents.

Unfortunately her powers are still new to her and require a little work. Even though she has mental control on the cooling process, the immediate area around her is cooled at good 20-30 degrees from the surrounding air. Prohibiting most people from getting very close to her, or at least making them uncomfortable while they're in her radius. While not a major source of teenage angst, this problem is her main concern at the moment, and it's taking up most of her hero time as she spends hours on her rooftop concentrating, and practicing to remove this temperature barrier.

Dear Diary

It's been 2 weeks since I've gotten this cold. Is it normal to get colds in July? I know it's just a virus. Must have gotten it from my snotty brother. The little brat. I'm running a bit of a fever so I'm huddled under some blankets with my laptop. It's 93 degrees outside so I don't know what the blankets are for, but I need to kill this off with something.

Dear Diary

Another day, still don't feel any better. My fever has left but I still feel cold. Mom gave me a electric blanket, I think it's the only one in Arizona. Eventually I'll have to get out of bed, but for the time being I'll ride the sick thing. I haven't looked in a mirror lately but my fingers look a little pale. Probably because I've done nothing but sit here and read stupid blogs for a week. Tomorrow's supposed to be hotter outside so I think I'll try and go out to get the blood flowing.

It took twice as much makeup as usual, but I finally got my face to look normal. I was as pale as a ghost. My temperature dropped a degree today. 97.7. Nothing major, but it's weird that I was burning up just days ago and now its below normal. I heard today was the hottest day of the month so far, not that I could tell. Even in the sun I felt a little chilled, and inside I feel even colder. Please let this be over soon.

95 degrees. I'm so cold. This morning I tried to put on eyeliner and my eyelashes snapped off. I can't be that cold could I? Anyways, I went to the doctor today. He gave me some antibiotics to kill the viruse I guess. But I don't think that's whats wrong. He was worried about my temperature but all he could do is tell my mom to keep a check on it while I sit under a pile of blankets and heat pads. Mom swears my room is colder than the rest of the house. My hair is getting paler as well. It was once a really nice auburn color, but it's getting more muted and grey every day.

90 degrees. Sounds like a hot summer day, but I'm so cold. I tried putting makeup on but my skin is so cold and dry it just clumps off. I still wear lipstick to hide how blue my lips have gotten. Everyone who comes in my room has to comment on how cold it is. It doesn't help that I can see their breath. Reminds me of that awful Exorcist movie and I'm scared. At one point I grabbed a glass of water and it was frozen solid before it reached my lips. Maybe it was frozen all along and I just forgot. I wouldn't doubt it, but that with the eerie room temperature I know something is wrong.

G.I.F.T. came by today. Genetic Investigation and Facilitation Team. They're the ones the deal with mutant super heroes. I knew I wasn't normal, at least not now. They gave me a shot of something to stabilize myself. Mainly to keep me from shivering myself to death since my body really doesn't need it. 32 degrees, yet my body still works just as well, if not better than before. The shot was temporary, and they said if I wanted a more permanent solution I would need to learn to control my powers. I guess that's the other reason they were here, to get me to go with them. Mom was crying, but it's not like she could help me. I'm looking forward to the change in scenery, even if it's just Rhode Island. Of course, I hear it's like the capital of the metahuman world, so if I'm going to learn how to control my powers it's there. My brothers almost happy to see me leave, the little brat. Even though he's too young to see how emotional this decision is, I still hate him for it. My dad bought me new clothes as well. Winter clothes. I have a feeling I'm going to be wearing a lot of layers. I love my parents so much and I'll miss them when I'm gone. I promised them I'll call every day...
