* As the second[[note]]well actually, the sixth[[/note]] person to inherit the mantle of Sub-Zero, Kuai Liang is a [[AnIcePerson cryomancer]] with the ability to create, control, and manipulate ice into whatever effect and style he wishes to conjure it. Naturally, he was inducted into the Hall of Ice and Cold where there was a whole population of similar-powered beings like he was, but despite his relatively simple uses in ice compared to many others, Kuai Liang still managed to differentiate himself from the rest, namely by having a level of authority and leadership that many have seen as commendable and worthy for a hero, as well as his mastery and sharp knowledge of how to use the cold for his benefit. Though his cryomancy is not as flashy or spectacular, Kuai Liang makes up for it by mixing it up with his martial arts skills as well as his former occupation as an assassin, turning him into among the most formidable, feared, and strongest cryomancers in the Pantheon. Even so, Sub-Zero is aware the Pantheon is home to a series of powerful foes, some familiar, some new, and that regardless of his own craft, he feels the need to improve his skills and authority for upcoming battles.

* Kuai Liang was once a member of the legendary clan of assassins known as the Lin Kuei, renowned for their ferocity and skills in kombat and killing. He initially took up the name of Tundra while his older brother, Bi-Han chose the title of Sub-Zero. However, Kuai Liang's time as an assassin in the Lin Kuei was to take a drastic turn, starting with the fateful day Bi-Han was killed by the vengeful Shirai Ryu Spectre named Scorpion, forcing Kuai to inherit the Sub-Zero mantle in the hopes of avenging and honoring his brother by defeating Scorpion in kombat. However, at the same time, the Lin Kuei were going through a process known as the Cyber Initiative, which was to convert all of their members into mechanical cyborgs in an attempt to reach the peak of their fighting and kombat prowess. Kuai Liang objected to the process and defected from the Lin Kuei, instead choosing to fight and join alongside the forces of Earthrealm under the God of Thunder, Raiden. Deciding to bury his feud with Scorpion after learning about the true circumstances of the Shirai Ryu clan's massacre, Kuai Liang would also later encounter Bi-Han now resurrected by Quan Chi as a wraith known as Noob Saibot, and their differing alignments and goals meant that Kuai now had to oppose and fight against the very brother whom he looked up to and desired to avenge.

* The feud between Scorpion and Sub-Zero was a very well-noted one, with both of them desiring vengeance against each other, seeing as Bi-Han was assumed to have killed Scorpion's wife, son, and clan whereas Scorpion returned the favor by killing Bi-Han later on, leading to Kuai Liang adopting his brother's identity and wishing to defeat Scorpion to avenge his Bi-Han's death. It wasn't until later on that they've finally buried their enmity and chose to commit their focus on defending Earthrealm, if mainly because it was really Quan Chi who killed Scorpion's family and misled him by accusing Bi-Han, all in a ploy to get two enforcers on his side, succeeding with Bi-Han as he became Noob Saibot. This tale was actually known even before the two ascended into the Pantheon, though these days, they're more likely to either be fighting each other as a means to hone their strengths or working together to combat a mutual foe. As a result, they've formed their own ''Deadly Alliance'', using their combined might of ice and fire to avenge those in need as well as punish the wicked for their sins. While not the most powerful heroic figures by any stretch, they are among the most feared thanks to their tenacity and willingness to be brutal and unforgiving towards their enemies.

** Damian Wayne and Cassandra Cain were two children who were born and raised to be assassins by their parents and while they certainly have proven themselves to be far deadlier than their youth and precociousness implies, However, these have also severely stunted and damaged their social and emotional psyches, to such an extent where Cassandra was unable to talk and Damian was initially aloof and confrontational, at least until Batman came to formally look after them as his children, with Damien being his biological son. Kuai Liang is eager to see their combat prowess and believes that they hold great potential as protectors of Gotham and Earth if they commit themselves greatly to the task of defending their home. He personally respects and sees great potential in the two of them, especially towards Cassandra, while he has made attempts to personally mentor Damian in his own way if mainly to teach him on how to control his temper. As a result, Sub-Zero fights both of Batman's protégés as a way for them to hone their skills and often offers advice for them in battle. It helps that Damian, an animal lover, wants to hitch a ride on one of Kuai's frost dragons, which the grandmaster has offered on the bet of defeating him in fair combat, likely as a good way of motivation.

** As per anyone else who has encountered him, Kuai Liang views Madara Uchiha with as much disdain as he would for someone as egotistical and defiant as he is. Aside from the fact that he would jeopardize and abandon his own clan simply for disagreeing with him and waging war because he cannot comprehend the idea of a unified alliance as well as petty jealousy, Sub-Zero also got to learn about how Madara became the way he was because of the death of his brothers, especially Izuna, and he personally believes the Uchiha hasn't exactly done a great job in honoring his fallen kin's memory. This happened to [[BerserkButton strike a nerve on Madara]] as anything regarding his family tends to be a sensitive topic for him. It's here that Kuai noticed that for all his reputation and influence, Madara lacks discipline and restraint and was not hesitant in pointing this information out towards him, to which Madara reacted aggressively. Luckily, Sub-Zero was aided by Sasuke during that time, but Madara has asserted that he will kill Kuai the next time he mentions his family ever again. The grandmaster finds it confusing on how he wants to bring peace, yet is adamant in wanting a battle every now and then, and notes that while Madara has abandoned the original intent of using the Infinite Tsukuyomi, his new plans are not for the greater good as far as Kuai is concerned, especially considering that Madara has been eyeing for Kronika's Hourglass for quite some time.
* He has gained what most would consider an OddFriendship with Queen Elsa of Arendelle. Beyond the two of them being formidable controllers of ice, they are also burdened with the task of being a leader of a sizable community of people as well as having struggled with some sort of struggle regarding their occupation, with Sub-Zero having to defect from his clan at one point and Elsa fearing that her nature as a cryomancer could jeopardize Arendelle and her relationships with her closest ones, especially her younger sister, Anna. Funnily enough, the main reason Kuai and Elsa got to know each other was that Johnny Cage insisted on calling Frost "Elsa", and, when finally annoyed enough, the DeceptiveDisciple had enough and decided to meet up with Elsa. Ironically for her, Frost's hostility towards Elsa and attacking her was what led to the Queen of Arendelle becoming friends with the Lin Kuei Grandmaster. Elsa is grateful for Kuai Liang's support and the promise of being able to better her control over her ice powers, given Sub-Zero's own mastery of that particular element. Meanwhile, Frost has vented that Sub-Zero has grown weaker since he's taken to mentoring Elsa, but some, her own allies included have noted that Forst is acting out that way because either she's actually jealous of Elsa being more approving in Sub-Zero's perspective, or really being unable to comprehend the fact that Elsa may as well be latently stronger than Frost.

* His opinion towards other cryomancers widely varies depending on their alignment, though some can elicit a nuanced perspective on his part. For one, while he doesn't like Captain Cold for leading what he thinks is a disingenuous lifestyle, despite his own insistence of honor and standards regarding his criminal activities, he feels sympathetic for Mr. Freeze, seeing as he became a villain due to tragic circumstances and has been in a perpetual cycle of wanting revenge and trying to cure his wife's illness ever since. Kuai believes that reaching out and helping his issues can redeem him, but Freeze has been quite hard to approach, choosing instead to remain solitary as a means of remembering happier times of him being with his wife, Nora. Another cryomancer, Kolin, has displayed great use of her abilities, but her ties to the Illuminati have made Kuai rather skeptical about her allegiances and desires, I stead seeking to approach Kolin with caution. On a lighter note, Sub-Zero does enjoy the companies of Jack Frost and Cygnus Hyoga, given their own commitment to protecting others as well as proving their own heroic actions as influential towards others. The fact that they see Kuai as a teacher of sorts due to his experience also helps with them having a strong, reliable partnership with one another.

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/SocialAndRecreationalWork Count Olaf]], Kaldr, [[Pantheon/VillainousAttitude Esdeath]], [[Pantheon/BetrayalAndTreachery Arthas Menethil]], [[Pantheon/MotivationsForEvil Red Skull]]
* Olaf is a proud veteran CO of Blue Moon, and he's notable for ensuring his soldiers and vehicles have the advantage when fighting in wintry landscapes. While many armies struggle in the snow, suffering such ails as slower movement or doubled fuel consumption, Olaf's forces don't suffer from these disadvantages. In addition, his CO Power allow him to ''summon'' snow. Though while his regular CO power, Blizzard, only turns the battlefield into a snowy expanse, his Super CO Power, Winter Fury, does so with a blizzard harsh enough to harm his foes' forces in addition to that. On the other hand, he hates rain, and his forces suffer it the same way other armies suffer in show.
* He is often compared to Santa Claus because of his snowy, white beard, [[AdaptationDyeJob unless it happens to be orange at the time]]. He even has a red coat for the occasion, to make the appearance uncanny. He often helps as the ideal Mall Santa because of his appearance, and he's highly regarded by other Santas in the Pantheon despite Olaf's grouchiness.
* Olaf was overjoyed to see Grit and Colin, his fellow Blue Moon [=COs=] in the Pantheon, despite the fact that the sniper's laziness annoys him.
* He was amused to find a snowman who shares his name, and he is pleased to meet with his creator, a pleasant woman with the power to create a winter wonderland, which reminds him a lot of Blue Moon.
** He's since heard of another Olaf in the Pantheon. Unlike the little snowman, he showed no sympathy toward the Count due to his abusive nature to the children he adopted for their fortune. The Count, in turn, treads quietly around the CO: one misstep, and [[MemeticMutation he can be sure that winter will come early]].
** Another Olaf has since showed up, this one being a fat Viking. This Olaf is rather amused by the Lost Viking's rather "dim" nature, but knows better then to remark on it...Olaf has made some unfortunate mistakes in the past.
* Do not remind him of his years at the first war in Cosmo Land: the stress of dealing with Black Hole caused him to launch a military campaign against Orange Star, who he was misled into believing were his foes. [[{{Retcon}} Also]], he claimed to be a proud member of Blue Moon with no relation to Orange Star, despite claims of having once been Nell's superior. Both side have different stories.
* He does not view Kaldr with any sort of respect, as Kaldr uses their ice powers to harm people around them. Olaf's use of ice powers is strictly to hinder his foes and keep his homeland safe.
* Many Russian and Soviet commanders have come to respect him because of his ability to call in the snow to slow the enemy down, as well as for the similarities his country shares with the Motherland. It is their way of remembering General Winter, who saved their country from many invasions like Napoleon's or Hitler's invasions.
** Red Skull is, in a similar vein, not impressed with the CO. He has no good memories of General Winter and his powers.
* He dislikes Esdeath because of her ruthlessness and sadism, and the way she uses her cold powers greatly dissapoints him.
* He sympathizes with the Courier, since their hometown were destroyed, even if the destruction was their own (yet very much unintended) doing.
* He is rather impressed by Katyusha for her skill at tanking in the snow and learning from a school whose architecture is reminescent of Blue Moon's. Though sometimes, her abrasiveness and pride remind him too much of his shameful years at Cosmo Land.
* Also has a spot in [[Pantheon/TacticsAndStrategies the House of War]].

* ''"A frost spirit that appears during the winter and melts away in spring. He is made of ice and snow, but do not be fooled by his cute demeanor. Jack Frost freezes people with his cold breath, smiling all the while. He originally looked like an abominable snowman, but he may have changed form, the better to freeze people."''
* No one actually knows hee-how Jack Frost heescended into the Pantheon, but it's definitely clear that he's here to stay, ho. Hee didn't just bring himself, hee brought his entire family of Frosts. Hee took KillItWithIce from Sub-Zero, since Jack Frost is well known for killing his victims with ice. The reason why hee looks so cute is to lure more victims, ho.
* Has a fairly friendly, but expected rivalry with Pikachu, due to the fact that both of them are adorable mascots of their respective Mon-centric franchise. Many expect this to turn into a three way battle if Jibanyan ever ascends. Jack tries to avoid Iron Tail as best as hee can. Since Jack Frost is the mascot of a large JRPG franchise, hee is also rivals with the Slime from Dragon Quest. It also helps that both of them have large families, and are very adorable.
* The Jack Frost family is large and has many members, most of them who are proficient with ice, but there are a few exceptions:
** Jack Frost, the original Jack, is a small snow elf that evolves into Wendigo.
** Pyro Jack, Frost's polar opposite, which is proficient with fire, and doesn't evolve. It gets along with Jack O'Lantern, both of which are based off the old tales of StingyJack.
** Jack the Ripper, a Jack that is proficient with physical attacks and knows Tetanus Cut, which applies sickness to the recipient of the attack. Is one of the few gods who gets along with the ''other'' Jack the Ripper, mainly because they are brothers. Many gods are baffled, especially [[Pantheon/TimeManipulation Dio]].
** King Frost is the ruler of all the frosts. Hee's naive, but hee's able to freeze the entire world if needed. It's made by fusing the above three Jacks.
** Black Frost is a member who is proficient with fire, ice and darkness. Reports vary on his background: Some say hee was a normal Jack Frost whose transformation was triggered by ingesting a Magatama, while others claim hee was educated on ThePowerOfLove and now doles out "magical punishment" in his new form.
** Lucifroz is a Lucifer fanboy who appears in Dem when snowmen were in trouble, and wants to join Lucifer, as hee is the fabled Snow Overlord.
** Demonee-ho is the only graduate of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, and has adopted his mannerisms, along with his usual hees and hoes.
--->'''Demonee-Ho''': "Private Hee-ho! [[Film/FullMetalJacket I will unscrew your head and hee-ho down your neck!]]"
** Raiho wants to become Raidou Kuzunoha the XV, and can summon the chilly Samurai Frost. He really idolizes Raidou, hee ho.
** [[CharClone Frost Ace]] is a Jack Frost who donned a suit and fights for justice. Char is understandably confused. We still don't why hee fights for justice.
** The Frost Five is a group of five Jack Frosts of different colors (and flavors), who are NighInvulnerable as long as they work together.
* No, he's not related to the human Jack Frost as far as we know. But he does get along with him. Sometimes he causes mischief during the winter holidays, but it's mostly harmless and [[Pantheon/{{Celebration}} Santa Claus]] finds it quite amusing. Jack Frost mistakes any overweight bearded guy for Santa,
* Kirby is an enemy of the Frost Five, as they taste delicious and demons will lick them to death. Kirby and other big SweetTooth deities are their natural predators.
* His temple is a vast snow covered wonderland ruled by King Frost, ho. [[VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIVApocalypse King Frost managed to get the best water in Fairy Forest, before a Tokyo hunter beat him in battle, ho]].
* Some say that the Frost Five are actually a lost [[Franchise/SuperSentai Sentai team]]. No one believes it for a second, but the ascended Super Sentai have occasionally had meetings whether to legitimize them or not, hee ho.
* Along with his brothers Pyro Jack and Jack the Ripper, hee butted heads with [[Pantheon/{{Insects}} Beezlebub]] on his way back to Makai. It happens yearly at Halloween and is treated as a fun past time that just happens to put the Jacks life on the line.
* Some say that a Black Frost will appear. Hee has appeared, and hee's pretty powerful.
** There's also another Black Frost that is a believer in the PowerOfLove, hee's seen a lot in the House of Love, and along with Flonne. It is unknown how this Black Frost got acquianted with Alcor, but hee will be brought forth should Alcor's other followers, Bifrons and Botis, be bested.
** Depending on which Black Frost you meet, hee may either claim himself to be the Great Emperor, or pride himself as second-in-command to the Overlord.
* Rena Ryuguu laid eyes on Jack Frost and immediately took him home with her. Not just one Jack Frost, the entire crew. They occasionally visit her. Sometimes they can also be seen helping [[Pantheon/{{Commerce}} Anna]] out with her store.
* They've also been spotted at Nursery Rhyme's, err... Alice's tea parties with Jack the Ripper since they want to support her.
* An incident occurred where the [[PunnyName Jack-san Five]] invaded the House of Music and kept polluting it by singing. They were chased out by Tiz's party.
* Sometimes, Jack Frost gives out quizzes to those who encounter him. Those who have answered all 100 questions correctly are awarded with a certificate. Jack Frost has been known to fight those with the certificate on a whim. Why? "No reason, ho! Life, hee... life, ho... Hee ho is not fair!"
* One of the Jack Frosts, Demonee-Ho, has clearly been broken by all the time he spent training with [[Pantheon/MilitaryRanks Gunn. Sgt. Hartmann]], down to [[https://imgur.com/UsOV1EB picking up his vocabulary.]]

* Kuai Liang is a powerful cryomancer and the current holder of the title of Sub-Zero. As the Grandmaster of the Lin Kuei he commands them and acts as a protector of Earthrealm. That said, his life wasn't a simple one. He and his brother Bi-Han were kidnapped and raised as assassins by the Lin Kuei, given that they descended from an Outworld race, their powers would have proven useful for the Lin Kuei. Following the death of Bi-Han at the hands of Scorpion, Kuai Liang would discard his title of Tundra and assume the mantle of Sub-Zero to avenge the death of his brother by entering the Mortal Kombat tournament hosted in Outworld, where he would best the revenant that took his brother's life in Kombat and spark a long lasting rivalry between the two. After a long series of event involving [[UnwillingRoboticisation being turned into a cyborg]], dying against Sindel, raised as a revenant and later returning back to life thanks to Sonya Blade, Sub-Zero ascended into the Pantheon, hearing of the tales some of his allies told him and wanting to learn more about this place.
* Despite being good hearted, he [[GoodIsNotSoft is not afraid to get his hands dirty]] and he adopted the same finishing move as his brother, the Spine Rip. Unlike Bi-Han, Kuai Liang is a lot more likely to [[HumanPopsicle freeze his opponents and tear them apart after the fact]], one of the main reasons he was accepted as a deity. He is honored to be considered a god, a rank he only thought was only possible for the likes of Raiden.
* The Pantheon in general is glad that he and Hanzo have finally buried the hatchet and have no issue in working together. [[spoiler:Kuai Liang even mourns his death at the hands of D'Vorah and is considering avenging his fallen friend]] but Hanzo has deterred him from doing so. When they are both working together, few can stop the combined might of Sub-Zero and Scorpion.
* While a powerful fighter in his own right, some people have noticed him that [[MemeticLoser he tends to die quite a lot]] in what is called "exhibition matches", where a newly introduced kombatant or a returning one tests their skills against a veteran and usually ends up finishing off whoever is against them, with Kuai Liang being the usual victim. He doesn't mind, although the painful memories about dying a lot stick with him, which could explain his calm and collected attitude to everything.
* As the Lin Kuei Grandmaster and one of the most skilled cryomancers in the Pantheon, it's no wonder people seek him out to improve their cryomantic skills. One of the first to request his training was Queen Elsa, having had troubles with her own powers since a very young age and only now managing to somewhat gain control of them, she was surprised to see someone like Sub-Zero handle ice with no problem. Kuai-Liang sees her as having even more potential than him and so took Elsa under his wing in order to control her own powers, potentially surpassing him if she managed to master them and maybe even learn some of his techniques, like teleporting.
** Another person that caught his interest was the mysterious Kolin. Her ties to the Illuminati made him hesitant to recruit her, probably putting his clan in danger if he isn't careful. That, and he's been thinking twice about recruiting anyone with mysterious motivations after what happened with Frost (more on that below).
** While not teaching, he tends to spar with both Jack Frost and Cygnus Hyoga, finding them both worthy warriors to learn from. He is not exactly upset that he is not the holder of the AnIcePerson title and respects the Cygnus Saint for having it anyway, preaching that he might not be up to the task yet.
* Was overjoyed to reunite with both Smoke and Cyrax, two Lin Kuei comrades that were close to him. Losing Smoke to the Netherrealm and Cyrax to the Tekunin is something that still haunts him but the Pantheon has given Kuai Liang the chance to right those wrongs. Seeing that Sektor ascended not that long after Cyrax established himself, Sub-Zero has put all his efforts into defeating him once and for all and avenge all the Lin Kuei members that suffered under him. This also extends to Triborg, a cybernetic almagamation of Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke and even himself, who follows Sektor's directive of keeping the Tekunin going.
** However, the last person he expected to be aligned with the Cyber-Lin Kuei was Frost. She used to be one of his most promising students but her impatience and lust for power, coupled with her disdain of the Shirai Ryu, forced Kuai Liang to banish her. In the events where Kronika tried to create a new era, Frost allied with the Titan in an effort to gain more power and take over the Lin Kuei. Frost is one of the people that Sub-Zero will admit he is dissapointed with and thinks she is a lost cause.
* He and Raiden used to be at odds, especially because his actions were responsible for turning him and other Earthrealm warriors into Revenants, not to mention Raiden's transition into Dark Raiden. For a time he met two new deities that filled the void of Raiden, being the former Warchief Thrall and the vampiress Rachel Alucard, the three keeping a cordial relationship and trying to do their best to keep everything in the Pantheon under control. Rachel was also the one that informed Kuai Liang of Shinnok's attempts at claiming the Booster Gear from [[Pantheon/LustfulActs Issei Hyodo]] and so he decided to aid them whenever he could.
** However, some timeline shifts have [[RetGone removed Dark Raiden]] from existence and he only now manifests occasionally. Raiden is ashamed of that version's actions and seeks to atone, asking both him and Grandmaster Hasashi's support to restore order in the Pantheon. Sub-Zero saw that Raiden regretted his actions and decided to forgive him. Even then, he still keeps in touch with Thrall and Rachel.
* He is not fond of cybernetics after being forcefully turned into Cyber Sub-Zero. However, he is tolerant of other machine creations if they have good intentions and that's how, thanks to Cyrax, he ended up meeting Victor Stone. Having been a good help for Cyrax, Kuai Liang decided to befriend him and this also lead to the two trying to fend off Frost after she attempted to get ahold of some of Cyborg's equipment.
** Then there was an instance where he was approached by the Tenno. At first Kuai Liang thought they were agents of GUAM or another squad of Tekunin coming for him but it turns out that the Tenno didn't come with bad intentions. The Grandmaster was understanding of their situation, and having heard of his mighty ice powers, the ones who used Frost Warframes wanted to train under him. Ironically, his acceptance of them ended up enraging Frost more; considering that Kuai Liang has now taken cybernetic beings under him and continues to call her a disgrace, she feels he is being a {{Hypocrite}}. However, he doesn't think so, as for one the Tenno don't have any lust for power like she did when she was part of the Lin Kuei.
* Thanks to a timeline rift, he found himself [[Videogame/{{Injustice2}} in a strange world]] where Superman became a tyrant. [[Videogame/MortalKombatVsDCUniverse Kuai Liang was already familiar with a few of the DC universe's residents]] but their behavior and personality were radically different in this particular timeline. In his time there he tried to both fix whatever problem that timeline was suffering and recruit allies for the Lin Kuei. This event personally clued him that both Damian and Cassandra Wayne could become powerful assets for the Pantheon and decided to seek them out to prevent any of the two from straying too far, mostly after seeing what happened with Damian's Regime self. Batman has personally thanked Sub-Zero for taking care of them.
* When asked about {{Freeze Ray}}s, he usually answers that he doesn't mind them and that they can hardly harm him. His temple is located near Mei-Ling Zhou's home and he did take surprise at seeing a makeshift weapon able to freeze like that. Both are on good terms, although Mei is unnerved at how [[HumanPopsicle Kuai Liang executes his frozen targets]].
** That said, he once encountered two deities with {{Freeze Ray}}s that weren't exactly nice to him. He was already familiar with Captain Cold and Sub-Zero is angry that he tried to steal the Dragon Medallion from him. Mr. Freeze is a different story; he pities how far the man has fallen to save a loved one while Victor only sees potential in Kuai Liang, given that his body would allow him to further his research.
* Shortly after the defeat of Shinnok, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GocPvOATIKo he and his clan found eggs from a frost dragon]] and the hatchlings became a powerful asset for the Lin Kuei, adding DragonRider to his clan's credentials. This managed to catch the attention of Daenerys Targaryen and she approached Sub-Zero to learn more about his dragons. While contrasting elements, the Grandmaster welcomed Daenerys and has allowed her to study the frost dragons closer, possibly being key in the defeat of the Night's King. [[spoiler:With her descent to madness following the defeat of the Night's King, this offer has been rescinded.]]
* He is not the first one to carry the Sub-Zero name, being a title being passed in his family for generations. His predecessor was Bi-Han, his older brother and someone he used to admire, but having seen him reborn as Noob Saibot has soured the relationship of the brothers to the point that Kuai Liang has completely disowned who Bi-Han has become. Of course, finding out he is a deity has not amused Sub-Zero at all and hearing that he is now part of High Command made him worried for the Pantheon's safety, so he tried to enlist the help of all the allies he could find.
** This history of brotherly conflict has allowed him to meet other people with similar issues. Having heard rumors that [[Creator/PatrickSeitz Hanzo sounds a lot like him]], he was curious of Ragna the Bloodedge. That allowed him to meet Ragna's brother, Jin Kisaragi, who at the time was a bit of jerk but now he has mellowed considerably. He keeps an eye on them on behalf of Rachel.
** This was also the reason why he met Akame. She and her sister Kurome remind him a lot of him and Bi-Han, only if the roles were reversed. At first she didn't have a strong opinion on him, and having similar powers to General Esdeath certainly didn't help, but she ended up praising his dedication to his own clan the same way she was close to her Night Raid comrades.
** On a different note, he is glad to see both Ryuko Matoi and Satsuki Kiryuin embrace each other after finding out they are sisters instead of keeping on fighting each other. A stark contrast with what ended up happening between him and Bi-Han, but deep down he does want to redeem his brother somehow. That said, he has no respect for their mother, Ragyo, comparing her and her life fibers to Shang Tsung and his twisted creations.
* He is aware the cryomancy can be used for [[EvilIsDeathlyCold evil]] and Sub-Zero has taken a stance against all evil ice users. Particularly he opposes Kaldr the Ancient Apparition the most, being the highest ranking deity in the sub-house he resides that would give the rest a bad impression and so he is trying to demonstrate that not all cryomancers are cold-hearted.
** Then there was Esdeath. He heard some stories about her from several people, including Akame, who was the one that managed to put her down. He is impressed with her cryomancy skills but definitely not at all with her sadism and beliefs. That and the fact that she was the one that recruited Bi-Han for High Command has made her a target for Kuai Liang. She does respects him, mostly his dedication to his clan and his brutal fighting style, but she thinks he is soft and that his brother would be a better Grandmaster to his clan.
* Yes, he is very aware of the existence of [[{{Pun}} ice puns]]. He thinks everyone who keeps saying it to him are more immature than Johnny Cage.
* ''"You will know the sting of winter."''

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/ValuesAndEthics Ghetsis Harmonia]], [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} Hunter J]], [[Pantheon/EarthAndRock Heatran]], [[Pantheon/FireAndHeat Brand, Ragnaros the Firelord]], [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Bright Man]]
* Opposes: Any other fire or rock-related deity
* Annoyed by: The House of Pantheon/LoveAndAffection
* In cold caves, snow clouds can give birth to a very strange Pokemon. Cryogonal, known as the Crystallizing Pokemon, is made out of ice crystals and essentially a giant snowflake. While pathetic when it comes to physical offense and defense, [[SquishyWizard Cryogonal has excellent special defense and great special attack]]. With its decent speediness, the Pokemon is a good representation of the GlassCannon attributes Ice types normally have.
* Utilizes ice chains to have its prey captive, then freeze them at -148 degrees Fahrenheit. Some think it eats prey similar to [[Franchise/StarWars how the Wampa eats its prey]]. Cryogonal's name is derived from "cryo-" and "polygonal". Doesn't seem to cry, and always frowns. This is probably due to having a literal FrozenFace.
* As a living snowflake, Cryogonal prefers cold conditions and gravitates towards that spread ice. This gets him close to more negative ice users like Kaldr, Mr Freeze and the Ice King. It gravitates towards Queen Elsa for the same reasons.
** Is on good terms with Olaf, due to being a being made of living ice like itself.
* For a partner, Cryogonal has decided to choose Yoshino because of her affinity with ice. Because she can generate cold and ice, she helps the Crystalline Pokemon stay solid and healthy.
* Cryogonal is an anomaly in being one of very few genderless Pokemon who can use Attract, which includes Mew(who can learn every TM), the Staryu line, Minior and Dhelmise. A move that cannot work on or against genderless Pokemon. The House of Pantheon/LoveAndAffection are baffled by this and trying to study it to further research into love within the Pokemon world. Cryogonal doesn't seem to like them that much, as the Pokemon [[http://rarecandytreatment.smackjeeves.com/comics/1632190/baby-dont-hurt-me/ has formed a complex about love]].
* Being a living snowflake, Cryogonal hates anything related to fire or rocks. While most Pokemon are OK with one another, this is not the case with Cryogonal and Heatran-the Crystalline Pokemon is fearful of Heatran due to his massive resistance and type coverage against it. Opposes Brand and Ragnaros as well due to desiring to spread fire everywhere, and like all Pokemon opposes Ghetsis and Hunter J.
* Hates bright lights, due to being sensitive to them and sublimate easy. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation The fact that it can learn Solar Beam hasn't registered with this hatred]]. It would rather stay in the House of Pantheon/DarknessAndShadow. Really doesn't like Bright Man.
* Brycen, the most well-known owner of a Cryogonal, is also a movie star in the Pokestar Studios [[MeanCharacterNiceActor as the villain Brycen-Man]] and sometimes as Mecha-Cop. The Cryogonal in the pantheon seems interested in this, and as a result sometimes wanders into the House of Pantheon/TheatreAndSpectacle. It has gotten the job of making ice effects for the movies, and is sometimes used as an antagonist. A one-time anime villain styled himself Cryogonal Man(though didn't have a Cyrogonal), interestingly enough.
* Looks kind of like VideoGame/{{Sinistar}} except made of ice. Some of the gods in Pantheon/{{Gaming}} wonder if there was an intentional reference or if it's just a neat coincidence. Cryogonal has responded by using paint to cosplay as the Sinistar during Halloween.
* Gained an ally in Chuggaaconroy since the Let's Player used one in an adventure across Unova. Not sure what to think to learn that its Hidden Power move was ''fire''.

* Opposed by: Those With {{Healing Factor}}s and Good-aligned Healers
* [[http://www.dota2herostime.com/ancient-apparitions-time Following an incident where Kaldr escaped from a facility similiar to theirs]], the SCP Foundation has been trying to capture him to prevent potential catastrophic damage. In fact, the SCP Foundation has listed Kaldr as a ''[[PersonOfMassDestruction Keter-class]]''.
* The Incubators as a whole oppose Kaldr (and possibly fear him) because he's the [[ElementalEmbodiment Embodiment of Ice and Entropy]]. Entropy being the heat death of the universe, [[AsYouKnow which the Incubators want to prevent at all costs]].
* Among healers and those who rely on a HealingFactor, Kaldr is one of the most feared. His ability to launch an ice blast with a global range is bad enough, but it blocks almost every single form of healing and regeneration. That the vicious frostbite from it kills and shatters those who're already at low health makes it even worse.
* In the final battle of the ancients for [=TI5=], Kaldr is known for having been involved in the legendary [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ElXGllTpp0 "6 Million Echo Slam"]], securing his team's victory. The moment of the Ice Blast and Echo Slam combo was awe-inspiring, causing thunderous applause and cheers across several mortal planes and among spectating gods.
* Upon seeing his ascension, Kel'thuzad was pleased to see an old "friend" like Kaldr. They discussed fond memories of the good times they had fighting common foes during the original War between the Ancients.
* Learning of the Ancient Apparition through Kel'Thuzad, Arthas saw great potential in Kaldr. He managed to convince Kaldr to be one of his allies and help him out with any plans he might have for the Pantheon. In exchange, he sent a large group of his scourge to support him in the House of Water and Ice against the deities who do not approve of his presence.

* Worshipped for his ice mastery and development. But not his mother complex.
* The former deity who was once in this place was turned into a HumanPopsicle in a 'praying stance' by Hyoga and put into The Fallen. You know who it is? Sub-Zero.
** Though as of late, Sub-Zero has risen once more. Fortunately, there was no ill-wills between the two Gods.
* After several events, he changed his mind about Jin Kisaragi and has offered him a chance to take over if he wanted. Jin denies, saying that he CAN be an asshole [[HeelFaceTurn after turning good]].
* He is in very good terms with [[WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}} Queen Elsa]] of the same House. Besides their obvious affinity to the cold, they share a lot of issues with the loss of their parents at a young age (coincidentally, on a sank ship in both cases), along with their struggles with concealing their feelings.
* Recently found a 'rivalry' with [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Kurei]]. While being surprised at his cruel combat style and sheer power, Hyoga can't help but somehow respect Kurei's determination and his charisma. Well, that, and the fact and they're both utter [[MommasBoy Mama's Boys]].
* After Rukia displayed the true power of Sode no Shirayuki [[spoiler: and her Bankai, Hakka no Togame]], Hyoga took her in as an ally. As it stands, she is one of the few people in the Pantheon who share Hyoga's ability [[spoiler: [[KillItWithIce to use Absolute Zero attacks]]]].
* He's usually the one to keep quiet, but even he cannot withstand hearing [[VideoGame/GodOfWar Kratos]] calling his liege, Athena, to be a manipulative, greedy Goddess. Along with the other Saints, Hyoga has stood opposed to Kratos, relentless with his Greater God status since they're known to face foes far greater than them and toppling them. Although Kratos usually had the better favor, [[{{Determinator}} the Saints refused to back down]], though Hyoga thought that maybe the scale will tilt on their favor better if Seiya and Shiryuu are with them... which has been partially done with the ascension of Seiya. Hyoga couldn't be more than glad that his friend ascended.
** However, unknown to others, Hyoga also received an extra 'mission' from the Gold Saint Virgo Shaka, to investigate a case of 'alternate version', noting that the 'manipulative' Athena MIGHT not be the very same Athena they served. While he accepted that and kept the case to himself, even he would admit that Kratos' very own brutality also goes too far.
** Eventually he and the rest of the Saints discovered Athena, the ''actual'' Goddess herself and the investigation came in full-circle: Athena was infected with the evils of the Pandora's Box. However with the loyalty of the Saints and many of her friends, they managed to cleanse the element from her, and Athena was genuinely remorseful. However, the war with Kratos, who refused to believe that, continued...
