Granth Snezhny

A nephal as calm and cool as winter snow.

a character in “Fusion Fantasy Neo”, as played by MrAuthor3DS

Description

Name:
GRANTH SNEZHNY -Urban Legends-

Bittercold Phase 1 - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity
Image




Age: 18

Gender: Male

Specie: Nephal (Lycanoid)




Physical Description: A tall human with a scar across his chest. He has the forearms, feet, and tail of a cobalt-gray wolf, wearing a matching mask over his head. His only other clothing is a pair of black shorts lined with soft artificial white fur.

Personality: Cool, collected, but with enough brashness to react to anyone that challenges him. He thinks rather lowly of those that act without thinking. This has given him a fierce rivalry with fellow actor Kevin McBlain. He has a love for poetry, especially oriental poems and verses. It seems he found a girlfriend in the kind-hearted (and rather imaginative) rabbit-masked Sagara Larelle.

History: Part of the Animalia Acting Troupe, he was born in the far north of Siberia, Russia. There, he trained his mind, body, and soul by meditating and sparring in the cold. This has awakened a controlled power not seen in many other nephals. He eventually moved to Blitzerph, donning his wolf mask as he takes his wisdom to the stage...and the street fights.

Equipment: N/A

Abilities: Granth wields cryokinesis and aerokinesis, able to control wind, snow, and ice with ease. He is also versed in the arts of sambo and jujutsu. Unlike most nephals, though, he has harnessed the power of Fuyu Soul, allowing him to assume different stances and build psionic power. Only in "Fuyu" versions of moves does he assume his Trance, turning him into a black/blue translucent wolf during the attack.

Other: Thanks to constant training in the snow, his body can handle the intense cold. His cryokinetic abilities also let him cool off more easily in strong heat. Water sometimes accidentally freezes when he makes contact, though.


Specific Moves
  • The Iceberg: A defensive stance. Pain is nullified as he stands still, focusing his energy.
  • The Typhoon: A gliding stance. Hovers about in a swirling gale as he focuses his energy.
  • The Feral: An all-fours stance. Rushes about on his hands and feet as he focuses his energy.
  • Chill Zephyr: Sends forth a shockwave of freezing psions.
  • Whipper-Wind: A palm thrust that emits a powerful burst of wind, pushing foes back.
  • Whipper-Wind Fuyu: The wind pushes foes even harder.
  • Cryosphere: Generates a spherical field in place, slowing foes within with intense cold.
  • Cryosphere Fuyu: Creates a larger field with a greater slowing effect.
  • Wolf's Breath: Sets a psionic charge in front in midair. Can then detonate it to burst with freezing power.
  • Wolf's Breath Fuyu: The charge explodes in a greater radius.
  • Lupine Palm: A quick, short-range palm strike. A lot of energy is packed into this.
  • Backlash Gale: Swings a backhand, commanding the wind to blow toward him, bringing foes with it.
  • Backlash Gale Fuyu: The luring wind covers more area.
  • Cold Shock: Brings a karate chop downward, hurling a bolt of cold psions to the ground, where it bursts and splits apart into shockwaves.
  • Cold Shock Fuyu: Creates bigger shockwaves on the ground.
  • Lycan Screw: Leaps upward in a somersault, then cannonballs downward.
  • Lycan Screw Fuyu: Surrounds self in a razor of ice psions.
  • Siberian Cyclone: Style Lore. Surrounds self in a blistering-cold twister.
  • Frosty Finish: Style Lore. Casts a shockwave forth to freeze his foe, then pummels him/her until the ice shatters.
  • Crystal Smash: Style Lore. Strikes the ground, making walls of ice grow around.
  • Diamond Dust: Legend Lore. Encases his foe in thick layers of ice. After reciting an appropriate poem, the ice's pressure intensifies until it shatters into a fine frosty dust.

Inspirations
  • Wolf O'Donnell (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)
  • Frost Tiger (Viewtiful Joe 2)
  • Sub-Zero (Mortal Kombat)
  • Vulcan Raven (Metal Gear Solid)
  • Squigly (Skullgirls)
  • Wonder-White (The Wonderful 101)
  • Siberia

Trivia
  • "Granth" is derived from Grant Goodeve, voice actor of Wolf O'Donnell. "Snezhnyy" is Russian for the adjective "nival", which describes plants that can grow through snow.
  • As opposed to the fox-masked Kevin (who has a red color scheme), Granth has more of a blue color scheme.
  • The Feral stance is similar to Jill Valentine's Feral Stance in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
  • Cold Shock is similar to a freezing attack used by Marx in Kirby Super Star.
  • Lycan Screw is similar in execution to Samus Aran's Screw Attack in the side-scrolling Metroid games.
  • Frosty Finish is similar to one of Sub-Zero's Fatalities in Mortal Kombat.
  • He may have a "Real Soviet Damage" reference somewhere. Just not as over-the-top.

So begins...

Granth Snezhny's Story

Atop the peak, a young man in a wolf mask was meditating on the tips of one foot's toes, resisting the cold air up top.

In the caverns of Mount Moon, Colonel was leading a squadron of Dark, Ghost, Rock and Ground-type Pokémon through a search of the place, looking for a certain book. He remembered well his instructions from the previous day...

"There are several places that could fit the bill of 'a mountain that fell from the sky'," explained Fatum. "So all of you are going to split up to find which one holds the Prognosticus. Colonel, you will take your squadron to Mt. Moon."

"Might I ask why?" asked Colonel. "After all, there was a bunch of hubbub around the place recently, and if the book was there, it might have been already discovered..."

"And you trust that humans are ever thorough in uncovering artifacts?" asked Fatum. "The place holds cosmic energy, which indicates that long ago, it may have been part of one of the twin moons. If it is in Fantasma now, it qualifies for having fallen from the sky. Now go."


It had taken him most of the previous day to actually GET to Mt. Moon. While he was easily the strongest of Fatum's lieutenants, he wasn't the fastest when it came to crossing over long distances, especially when he had to escort an entire squadron and do it discreetly.

The wolf-masked youth was deep in his meditation...slightly disturbed only by the arrival of Colonel's squadron.

None of the Pokémon are aware of the wolf-masked youth's presence, so they just continue digging and searching for the Dark Prognosticus.

Unknown why, but the youth felt a chill down his spine. Not a normal chill, but a life-eating chill. Feeling this made his eyes flash wide open.

With a few hours of searching, the Pokémon haven't had any luck finding the Dark Prognosticus. They have, however, found a large, spike-shaped crystal, deep in the heart of Mount Moon, that several are irresistibly drawn to.

Feeling in the very air that something bad is about to happen, the youth immediately sprinted down the side of the mountain, entering the tunnel bored in by the Pokémon.

">What is it?<" asked an Onix, staring at the crystal.

">I don't know,<" said Colonel. ">Maybe it's holding the Prognosticus?<"

">Negative, sir,<" said a Banette. ">Not even a crystal like this could hide the energy the Prognosticus is supposed to radiate.<"

">So... you're saying 'don't break it and see what's inside'?<" asked Colonel.

">Not... not necessarily...<" said the Banette. ">I'm just saying don't break magical things that we're not sure about.<"

OOC: >< these indicate Pokémon language. They're in reverse because they hide things otherwise.

The youth skidded to a stop behind the Pokémon. Then, with a wave of one hand back, his whole body flashed to a pitch-black figure with a cyan glow, summoning a wind that knocked the Pokémon away from the crystal.

"Stay away from that, if you know what's good for you," the youth said, reverting to his regular colors.

"Very well," said Colonel, being one of the few Pokémon that held his ground with the burst of wind. "Since you asked so nicely. Oh wait, no. You attacked us and demanded we stay away. So, not so nicely after all."

The other Pokémon are taken by surprise and slowly get to their feet/whatever they use for transportation, turning to the youth.

"We didn't even come looking for this crystal in the first place," said Colonel. "It was merely in our way. Much like you right now."

"Then get away from it," the youth said, "if it has nothing to do with what you seek." He strafed to the side, allowing a path out of the tunnel. "It's best to be careful what you spend your time on."

"Thank you very much, Dear Abby," said Colonel, dripping with sarcasm. "Where would I be without your advice telling me how to live my life? Let me repay the favor by offering you some. Stay out of business that does not concern you."

"That crystal is pretty much everyone's business," the youth replied. "If you understood the history of the world, you'd know."

"Well, Dear Abby," said Colonel. "I must say you intrigue me. You tell me to stay away from the crystal, and you offer this friendly warning by attacking me and my men. You tell me the crystal is none of my concern and now you say it's everyone's business. I've tried to be reasonable but it seems all you wish to be is antagonistic. Very well."

Colonel turns to his Pokémon.

"Boys. Earthquake," said Colonel.

Several of the Rock and Ground Pokémon nod and slam into the ground, causing a large tremor. In a cavernous area like Mt. Moon, this is very, very bad, causing the whole area to tremble and rocks to fall from above.

"!!!"

The youth did his best to dodge the falling rocks, made easier with wolf-like reflexes. Unfortunately, the combined tremor caused a slight crack in the crystal, a faint black mist emerging from it.

"You fool! Don't break that!!" the youth shouted. "If it's gone, then we'll all be closer to a fate worse than death!"

"So let's recap," said Colonel. "You've attacked me out of nowhere for simply existing near this crystal, told me to stay away from it because it wasn't my business, only it was everyone's business, and now I'm a fool. I don't think I like you very much, Dear Abby. I doubt I'll be following your advice in the future."

The rocks continue to fall.

"I only acknowledged...that it was not what you sought!" the youth said, a bluish glow emanating from his claws. He then threw it forth in a couple of Chill Zephyr attacks, striking several rocks and freezing them to the wall. "And it is everyone's business...in that our world's survival depends on its safety!" He continued to dodge the falling rocks. "As I feared...you understand none of it!"

Unfortunately, some of the falling rocks struck the crack in the crystal, making it break open further, more faint traces of black mist rising from it.

"You wanna know the funny part, Dear Abby?" asked Colonel. "If you just left well enough alone we would have moved on. But no, instead you had to go rushing in, calling us fools for daring to stand near this crystal. We knew it wasn't what we sought, and would have left. But no. You had to go in and demand we leave. You are right, though. We didn't understand what this was. Thanks for telling us, though. Now, boys... Fissure."

The Pokémon slam the ground again, creating a crack in the earth that heads straight for the crystal. At the same time, with surprising speed, Colonel jabs out at the youth with a Brick Breaker punch.
