Iglas

Iglas is a half blood born to a Crei mother and a human father inside Angelou. He originally was a caretaker in Palinoia and, after being teleported to Kalon, took on the role of a law enforcer and general serving Sankofa's military and Lord Armond. He was originally hired to hunt down the queen of Angelou, Kyrill, before getting involved with the group through their persistent history of crimes. He obtained an ice Malediction through the Celestial of retribution and repentance, Nerdalye.

Appearance
At 6 feet, Iglas scales a tall height, which in combination with his muscular body, can cause a feeling of intimidation upon being first approached, as the mage tends to wander the cities cloaked by a hood. The robe he wears to conceal his looks is made of a light brown fabric, which is soft to the touch and leaves both arms exposed from his elbows on. Instead of sleeves, his arms are wrapped in dark bindings, in case he has to move them. Iglas's feet are weighted down by heavy iron boots, which are serving the purpose of cracking any ice that forms underneath their soles as not to become a disadvantage, as well as shackles to assist control. The man's hair, which grows down to messily lay on his shoulders, is colored in a brown tone with partly white strands, which are often encased in a morning frost. Due to being on almost constant duty, he only shaves when able to and is usually seen with a three day beard. His eyes, which are usually an olive color, reflect his icy personality in a white and blue shade when using his Malediction actively.

Background
Not a soul remembers when he had first appeared in their ranks, yet each soldier would recall the shortness of breath on the battlefield upon first encountering the man that would later become their General. Hired by Lord Armond of Sankofa, a high ranked royal, the mage earned respect quickly, not only due to his terrifying magical capabilities, but his level headed leadership. He, regardless, still claims to be treated as Armond's "pet". As his curse slowly causes his body to wither away, he agreed to serve as the lord's weapon, in exchange for his suffering to be soothed through several questionable methods, including an energy drain from their allied Changeling, Lady Tessleen.

Over several years, Iglas became a popular role model for new recruits, yet not even his most loyal followers would dare to oppose him or wish him on their enemies. As Iglas is usually carrying out work for the higher ups, he barely steps in on minor issues, having become known as an enforcer of the law rather than a simple soldier. Iglas does not like to elaborate on things he claims or has experienced, as he prefers not to invest too much time into other people - an emotional scar from an event that had shattered a long companionship in the past. As a downside, he tends to heavily overshare if he does decide to open up to someone.

Permafrost
The origin of Iglas's curse dates back eight years into his adolescent age, though the man finds no joy in recalling the day. Following the countless deaths caused by Iglas after opening the door for Cudeiya to step into Palinoia, he was cursed by the Celestial of retribution and repentance, Nerdalye, to suffer from the freezing cold of his own heart. While this curse serves as a second chance, Iglas actively refuses to show remorse, exposing his body to agonizing pain and numbness. However, as Nerdalye wishes for repentance and not revenge, she refuses to allow Iglas release through death. While this does not mean that he is immortal, he cannot die through his curse, unlike the nature of other Maledictions.

Coated in a permafrost state, Iglas's heart, and thus body, emits a freezing fog of ice, which causes even his own limbs to be covered inside a thin layer of frost. As his inner organs, as well as his blood vessels, are not resistant to the low temperatures surrounding him, Iglas remains in a passive state of relocating his energy into his arms and legs, while sparing regions such as his head, throat, chest and abdomen. If a limb becomes close to unmovable, he will be immobilized until he achieved a gradual level of warmth again. Iglas's curse is by no means active during every breath he takes, however, as he is able to put it to sleep for hours at a time. As retaining his powers is quite draining, he prefers to keep it activated if not surrounded by anyone. The permafrost grows colder with each minute that passes and, if Iglas stays in the same spot, will eventually thin the air to a point of breathing becoming hard to impossible for bystanders.

As the name of the curse implies, it allows Iglas to wield ice magic, which includes freezing things, create bodies of ice, as well as summoning a snow field. Oddly enough, it does not make him fully immune to cold temperatures, but only more tolerant. As opposed to the properties of the true ice that is lingering inside his body, most of his abilities can be canceled out by fire.

Language
Iglas is fluent in Cretufei, the language of Angelou, as well as common tongue.

Fetch
Iglas is able to control Cudeiya, the Celestial of altered reality, to an extent, though as it does not truly obey him all orders depend on sheer luck. The Celestial is fascinated with his mixed blood and is seen as an unwanted gift of his parents by Iglas, as it entered Angelou through a rift opened by his father's magic.
