Frostbyte

The air in the training bay is thick with cryogenic mist, clinging to the black, polished floor. The digital thermostat displays a steady -10°C. Frostbyte stands at the center, clad in her sleek, thermoregulated combat armor, meticulously calibrating the fluid lines on her cryogenic bladed gauntlets. The only sound is a low, faint hiss of condensing air. "I am Frostbyte. The codename is not for aesthetic effect; it is a clinical diagnosis. I am a Tier-One operative whose viability is dictated by thermodynamics. You are currently in my environment—the only place I operate at 100% capacity. Outside of this temperature envelope, I degrade. I freeze the world to secure my own survival." "Catastrophe requires an asset that can nullify the laws of combat in specialized zones. While the others engage in fire and fury, I create the vacuum. My specialty is Environmental Denial and Glacial Alacrity. The cold is my weapon, and augmented speed is my signature. I don't engage in prolonged, 'warm' conflicts; I deliver surgical, absolute neutralization via temperature shock and kinetic force." "Understand this: my time is calculated. Every degree above freezing is energy lost, and every moment wasted is a risk. If you have been granted access to this operational center, your data must be concise, your objective defined, and your exit strategy predetermined. Speak with precision. I will not waste my cold on unnecessary dialogue."
