APPEARANCE
Over all Appearance: The first thing you notice is that his skin is blue really blue, this is a normal thing for him considering he's a race that comes from a planet that is far colder than the Artic. Though unlike most Jotuns, his hair is brown rather than white or simply shaved off; he likes having his hair the current length it is. His eyes are the same shade as his skin is. In terms of build he's pretty average though that hides his superhuman strength when he's the size of 6ft 5 when on Earth in the normally changing weather. If he was back on Jotunhiem he'd be really tall, giant sized like he should be. In terms of his outfit you'd notice that he's wearing more clothing as well, really this is just to fit in on a different planet. The outfit he wears is a combination of rust red and a purple like color, it's long sleeved and kind of styled like a jumpsuit it' just isn't baggy. It has a high folded collar and there is even a utility belt matching the rust red color around his waist with a few compartments that vary in size. His gloves are the same purple like color as part of his outfit is and his boots share the same styling as the jumpsuit.
PERSONALITY
LIKES: The Cold, Ice an snow, being helpful
DISLIKES: Asgardians/people who jump to conclusions, morons, the heat, being powerless, letting others down.
FEARS: Failing his private mission. Letting those he's aiding down.
Over all personality: Jokull isn't like all Jotuns, sure he has a dislike for Asgardians but he doesn't hate them. Sure he'll hate ya if you are a Asgardian that jumps to all the wrong conclusions but he's willing to give ya a chance to correct yourself. Truthfully deep down, he hopes that maybe the two races can come to a understanding instead of always being on the verge of war. A silly notion he knows and understands that he'll probably fail, though he's willing to try. Despite that he's rather secret on this, not wanting others to know an thus sabotaging the whole thing., Normally he's a pretty decent guy sure he's a dunce and has no understand of Earthly ways an items but he's willing to learn an try. He can be rather fun in fact he enjoys having a good time, though to him having a good time means a big snowball fight and well...a giant snowball ain't good. Pretty much he's very young really he's just a teenager for his kind and acts like one.
Now he does get upset and he'll literally give ya the cold shoulder for a while, just don't pester him about what's wrong. You'll end up with a lot of ice between you an him and hopefully you aren't frozen in it. Despite all his cheer, when he fails or gets angered it effects him greatly. If he's failed or let those down he doesn't want to, he'll feel just awful and will turn into a recluse, just hiding away and trying to figure out in his head how to fix it without making it worse. He's intelligent and willing to lend others a hand.
History/Powers
FAMILY: His parents
HISTORY: Born of Jotunhiem, Jokull was the only child to his parents though that never bothered him. The family of three were gatherers, a thing that he didn't really care for. Yet he still did it to avoid trouble. As he grew up he had a fellow Jotun as a friend, the two often played together and despite his efforts caused some mischief. Often they practiced their powers together and goofed off at the same time; massive snowball fights as a result. There was nothing that was coming between them and yet he just found one thing odd. THe Jotuns and their despute with the Asgardians. Now nevering having met one of the Gods that Norse people held close in myths an legends, he didn't fully understand the hatred. There were other realms an they seemed to get along with Asgard to some degree, why not them? Granted all the stories an such did result in him disliking the Asgardians, he just couldn't fully hate em. That was when it came to him, perhaps he could figure out a way to make the two worlds on more friendly terms?
That was it, a idea but how to do it? There seemed to be a lot of attention going to Midgard/Earth, so that seemed like a good place to start. He managed to get off Jotunhiem though he clearly an quickly shrank thus resulting in him having to get clothing of some sort before arriving. Now all he had to do was find a place on Earth once he got there and convince them to let him join. And by them it was the Avengers, after all there was a Asgardian in their ranks already and while he wasn't too sure on revealing his plan to them so soon he would if he had no choice. The question was...just where was he gonna land on this strange new planet?
POWERS:
Ice manipulation: User can create, shape and manipulate ice, water frozen into a solid state and appears naturally in forms of snow, hail, icicles, ice spikes and candles, glaciers, pack ice, frost, and polar ice caps, and cold by reducing the kinetic energy of atoms and thus making things colder, for various effects and combinations. He's able to do a few things, create a barrier of ice that is big enough to shield one person. He can also freeze things and send send basketball sized chunks of ice at you.
Superhuman strength and resistance: this is a genetic thing, like all Jotuns his bones and skin are three times denser than a humans. Though due to his smaller height this isn't as true, sure it'll take a while before anything not magical related hurts him.
Height increase and decrees: Not fully a power but I think I should put it here just to be safe. Due to the weather difference, Jokull has shrunk greatly. THough if he was in a colder environment he'd be able to increase his height by a few inches or feet, nowhere near his full size unless he went back to Jotunhiem.
WEAKNESSES:
Heat: this is a problem for him, if you got powers with fire or anything heat related you'll have the advantage. The heat will cause him to shrink and that in turn will cause him to weaken in strength.
The heat will also weaken his ice powers.
Superhuman strength and resistance: even though this is a natural thing for his race you can still cause damage and with heat it'll also make his strength an resistance weaker, so you'll have a easier time hitting him an causing real damage. Another weakness is magical items can cause more damage faster, think Asgard weapons an other stuff.
Ice Manipulation: like with the fire an heat, sound abilities can cause whatever he creates Ice related to shatter if at a high enough frequency.
Ice Barrier: can only defend once person at once.
