Snowfloof, the Spirit of Winter

Snowfloof, real name Hypothermia and known as the Spirit of Winter to the inhabitants of Glittering Peaks, is a Snowpocalypse Dragon that was stranded from his home universe.
==Appearance==
Aside from being located on a glacier, the IceWing town of Glittering Peaks is largely unremarkable. One of the few remarkable things about it is it's local mythology, and the tales of the legendary Spirit of Winter that protects the town. While most people live their entire lives without ever seeing him, particularly lucky individuals might catch a glimpse of the rumored Spirit of Winter.
The Spirit of Winter, or as he prefers to be called, "Snowfloof" does have one thing in common with the IceWings of Glittering Peaks; he is a dragon, and he has ice powers. But aside from that, he has absolutely nothing in common in them, or any tribe on Pyrrhia for that matter. This is because he is not native to the Wings of Fire Universe, but is instead a refugee from the DragonVale Universe.
In particular, Snowfloof is a Snowpocalypse Dragon, and possesses all the basic characteristics of one. For one, saying that he's large would be an understatement. He's noticeably bigger then most IceWings, and when compared to humans he's massive. Although, to be far, quite a bit of that size comes from his large wingspan and his thick fur.
Speaking of which, most of Snowfloof's body is covered in a layer of thick, pale minty blue fleece, with lighter splotches around in legs. Below his fur are rock-like, dark blue-grey scales, most visible on his tail but are also present on his wings and legs. The one exception is his face, which aside from his beard is completely furless and scaleless, instead being covered with thin, pale periwinkle skin.
His tail is decorated with several bony spines, ending with a sharp blade at the tip. A blue and red bioluminescent stripe runs down his tail. His wing membranes are red and blue, and are made entirely of a glowing, pulsating energy. His talons are short, but are wicked sharp regardless.
His horns are thick and curl at the tip, and Snowfloof tends to wrap any pale colored ribbons he can get his talons on around his horns. His face perhaps contains the most differences from the standard "Snowpocalypse Dragon mold;" his beard is shorter then it should be, as it hasn't fully grown in yet, and a tuft of curly fur in present on his head. He possesses pale mint green, pupilless eyes.
==Personality==
TBA.
==Worship==
Snowfloof is worshipped by the denizens of Glittering Peaks, do to him indirectly rescuing the town once. As they don't actually know his name or species, they call him "The Spirit of Winter," and think of him as a divine spirit sent to protect the town. Versions of the story vary; some make him an apostle to the Great Ice Dragon, while others make him an unrelated entity.
There are even a few shrines dedicated him. There are two shrines located on the glacier; the Eastern Shrine and the Western Shrine. There is also the Temple of Winter, a huge place that is part temple, part church and worships him.
A large chunk of Glittering Peaks population believes in Snowfloof's existence, although whether or not they consider him a spirit is somewhat fifty-fifty. As of recent times, more and more IceWings in Glittering Peaks have grown skeptical of Snowfloof's existence, and it's slowly becoming the new normal. It's general agreed by anyone outside of Glittering Peaks that Snowfloof is not real, and that if he is real he is not a spirit.
Snowfloof isn't really sure how he feels about the worship. On one hand, he likes the attention and free gifts, not to mention "So, do you want to hear about the time I accidentally became worshipped as a God?" is a pretty good conversation starter. But at the same time, it makes it nearly impossible to have know some personally, or even have a casual conversation with them, and as a result ever since he was forcibly transported to the world of Wings of Fire, Snowfloof has barely had any real "friends."
==Powers/Abilities==
===Pure, Unbridled Muscle===
One of Snowfloof's most notable abilities is his impressive physical strength. While he's far from as strong as a full grown Snowpocalypse Dragon, he is rather physically strong, and even managed to lift a boulder once.
===Flight===
Like most dragons, Snowfloof can flight. A notable trait about him is that he can fly long distances without tiring. This is do to his energy wings, and was a physical trait evolved by Snowpocalyse Dragons so they could fly through snow storms unhindered.
===Night Vision===
Snowfloof's eyes are specially developed to allow him to see in pitch blackness without a problem.
===Cold Immunity===
As Snowpocalypse Dragons naturally live in cold environments, Snowfloof can survive and thrive in freezing cold environments most people would be bothered by.
===Ice Manipulation===
Snowfloof possesses ice manipulation powers, and unlike his other powers it's the only power of his he's really practiced. He can breathe out flurries of snow and sharp ice crystals and minorly manipulate pre-existing snow and ice. He can even cause it to snow, although he can't use it at will and it's not very effective.
===Shadow Manipulation===
Snowfloof also possesses shadow manipulation powers, allowing him to minorly manipulate shadows and darkness. He can also create a black, sludge-like substance that induces incredible pain as well as horrific hallucinations in those it hits.
===Smoke Manipulation===
The weakest of Snowfloof's manipulation powers is his smoke manipulation powers, as he can barely create even a puff of smoke.
==Weaknesses/Flaws==
Despite what some of Glittering Peaks inhabitants may think, Snowfloof has weaknesses, just like any living creature
===Weaknesses===
*Snowfloof is largely unaware of how different universes work. He understands the DragonVale Universe the best, but he was still separated from it at a young age and so he doesn't even understand that one fully, and he barely comprehends the Wings of Fire Universe. As such, he may do things like attempt something that works in one universe, but doesn't work in this universe.
*Alongside his previously mentioned naivete, Snowfloof has an unfortunate tendency to not think things through, leading to him jumping into dangerous situations without considering whether or not he can actually handle it.
*Do to a mix of already being a poor judge of character and having a strong desire for friends, Snowfloof tends to not notice suspicious aspects of somebody's personality until it's way too late.
*With the exception of flying for long distances, Snowfloof has very low physical stamina, and can't keep things up for very long.
*As a result of rarely practicing his ice manipulation powers, and basically never training his shadow or smoke manipulation powers, all of his magical abilities are far weaker then they should be.
==History==
TBA
==Trivia==
*Snowfloof's voice sounds like a normal teenage boy, although if one listens closely you may notice that his voice seems to have a slight distorted effect to it.
*Snowfloof's lines are written in italics.
*Do to being rather lonely, Snowfloof has kept a few pets through out his lifetime, which mostly consist of whatever animals somehow manage to find their way onto the glacier. His current pet is an arctic fox kit he calls "Puffball."
