Cryo is a major antagonist in SarisKhan's QMSC gmod series. he was a teamless Pyro TF2 Freak who possessed cryokinetic powers and served as a henchman to mad scientist Dr. Schadenfreude until his death at the hands of Energineer.

Biography[]

At some point in the past, Cryo was approached by Dr. Schadenfreude, who had sought him out because of his unusual abilities, and offered him a job as his main henchman. Cryo agreed to the offer and has been by his side ever since. Some time after that, the two were confronted by a small PRL team, who heard rumors of Schadenfreude's unethical activities and decided to confront him. Unfortunately, due to the might of Cryo and Schadenfreude's deadly powers, the entire team was massacred; the only survivor of the massacre was a lone PRL Engineer whose right arm was cut off by Cryo and left to die. That same Engineer would later become Freak hunter Energineer.

Several years after the incident, Cyro watched together with his superior a video feed through a secret camera as a certain BLU Vagineer called the Mastermind Vagineer arrived to retrieve the body of his defeated right-hand man, Robosol, after a brutal battle with Soldine. Soon, Cryo was ordered by Schadenfreude was ordered to visit Madic's mountain lab in the aftermath of the vicious duel between Soldine and the BLU Vagineer, ambushing the building and eliminating a few HECU sentries that were guarding the premises. The only part that was left of the Mastermind Vagineer was his right hand, as most of his body was destroyed in the fight. Cryo then delivered the hand to Schadenfreude, who would then use it in the creation of his most powerful enforcer Destroyer.

One day Medizard, attracted by an unusual level of commotion in his subpolar realm, visited the complex where Schadenfreude's base was located. Despite the incompetence of the cybernetic sentries guarding the base, Cryo stood his ground against the new unwelcomed guest and managed to force Medizard to retreat, as their powers were equally matched, ending the skirmish in a stalemate. Dr. Schadenfreude was openly displeased that his enforcer was unable to defeat the opponent, prompting Cryo to lower his head in a rare display of unhappiness and shame.

Not long afterward their arctic base was attacked by a large HECU unit and a team of TF2 Freaks assembled by Energineer, who allied himself with Medizard some time after his failed investigation and brought along Major Scout Guy, Soldine, and Orangeman as extra help in their quest to defeat Schadenfreude. Along with his allies, Golem, Shriek and Razor, Cryo was sent to take care of the intruders and personally confronted the PRL Engineer cyborg. While he had the upper hand throughout most of the fight, Energineer, who harbored a personal vendetta against the Pyro for the murder of his team, pushed himself to the limit and eventually bested his enemy by striking his air tank with a powerful lightning bolt, causing it to explode, killing Cryo instantly. Despite being able to revive the rest of his henchmen, Shriek, Razor, and Golem, Dr. Schadenfreude was unable to revive Cryo.

Personality[]

Cryo's personality matches his ice-based superpowers and is near-opposite to that of regular Pyros. Always callous and reserved, he pursues his goals with unflinching determination. He is also undeniably loyal to his master and is always ready to fulfill his tasks.

In stark contrast to normal Pyros, who at least attempt to communicate frequently, Cryo is completely mute and does not emit any audible noises even when experiencing severe pain. Thus, he mostly communicates through body language and his actions.

Powers and abilities[]

Cryo's main power is cryokinesis. The cooler the climate, the more powerful he is, and in arctic conditions he is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Cryo focuses his ice powers almost solely during close combat.

For offensive use, he can fire volleys of icicles from his hands in a way reminiscent of shooting from a rifle, Although, he prefers more direct approach to fighting. For example, he can cover his entire body with a layer of extremely solid ice, and then hurl himself at his opponent. While in this state, both his durability and strength are increased. On direct contact he can (albeit temporarily) freeze his opponent, and use the time provided to either attack, think of a plan or to retreat.

When under heavy fire, Cryo is able to encircle himself completely with a column of constantly regenerating ice, which can withstand powerful blows and protect him from surprise attacks.

Cryo is a proficient martial artist who is well-trained in melee combat. He frequently wields an ice axe called "Sharpened Glacier Fragment", which is able to cut even through tempered steel. Cryo carries his SGF around with him like a normal weapon, unlike Medizard who summons his Ice Sword out of thin air.

Weaknesses[]

Because of his reliance on ice-based techniques, like Medizard, he is extremely vulnerable to fire and heat. He is significantly weakened by high temperatures.
Explosive attacks are also quite effective against him, though not as much as the fire-based ones.
Cryo's focus on close combat may leave him at a big disadvantage when faced with a powerful ranged opponent.

Trivia[]

Cryo's concept came from SarisKhan's desire to create an elemental Freak, coupled with an accidental finding of an ice-Pyro's custom skin whilst browsing gamebanana.com.
His name is pronounced /'krɪəʊ/ (kree-ou).
Originally, Cryo was supposed to be a peak human in terms of physical capacity. However, that was changed to enhanced human in order to enable him to provide actual challenge to his future opponents.
