Has never really opened up about where she's from or who her family might have been, and since being brought into the Pepper group, she has simply allowed that to lay to rest for good. Her family are the Pepper team. Beatrix's physical appearance has changed over time, as she has matured even growing a tail - which if she hadn't been around all the good folks in CHS and the Pepper facilities, she might have had cut off because it was 'even weirder'. |
 |
As a hero, Molten Glacier is fierce and single-minded. But as a tour guide she is genial and even 'sweet' toward those who need guidance be it physical or intellectual. While she doesn't necessarily recognize the signs in every kid that might need it, others certainly do, and often enough she'll find herself chatting up the parents of kids who she later realizes were just like her at that age |
 |
Though she's definitely mutated, it's not entirely clear whether her lineage is fully human. Quincy has actually contacted some of his Zekiran friends to do a little more digging into her genetics, as he's seen some similarities with them Powers - she's listed at Paragon as a 'Brute', a melee oriented close-combat specialist whose power increases with hits and damage taken. You don't want to mess with a volcano while it's erupting, and you definitely shouldn't stand in front of a glacier while it's breaking away into icebergs! Physical Features: armored skin; Beatrix's skin is actually moving parts of armor, and those pieces visible in the images above tend to glow in a pulse, as well as occasionally fuse together into hardened armor, or flow around to different small clumps. This offers her protection against both heat and cold including direct fire, magma and plasma, and freezing ice produced by other heroes or villains. Some parts such as the 'horns' and her shoulders may be broken off but regrow within a few days. The Pepper people are researching this... Ice Melee powers: able to create heavy and thick ice clumps on her fists and even shape it into a 'sword' or 'mallet', she can impact enemies or items very strongly, knocking them back or down in some cases. However she can also produce a wave of super-chilled wind that slows enemies and causes some to attempt to flee, in any event they are also taking frost and cold damage. She can encase a single enemy in a thick 'glacier' of ice, which only the strongest of boss-level types can easily avoid or break through, and most of her icy attacks cause that slowdown of all movement making them easier to approach and strike Fire Defensive powers: parts of her are actually burning, with a deep and dangerous heat. She is 'molten like lava' in part, there is a point when ice 'burns', and that point is 'her power'. She is almost entirely immune to hot and cold things, particularly when she has her fire shield up. But this power also enables her to sap energy, modestly healing herself and nearby allies, and even brings with it the 'power of the Phoenix' to revive herself should she be gravely injured in battle Travel Abilities: though she cannot fly without the aid of her dragon friends, Molten Glacier can run somewhat faster than a normal being, though she isn't a 'speedster' in the true sense. Her command over ice and heat may combine into a sort of 'sleek slippery running surface' that also adds a warm updraft because she definitely jumps much higher than even professional athletes. Between these things, she is able to scale or carefully move around challenging terrain including downtown skyscrapers, effortlessly leaping between tall rooftop landings |
 |
Beatrix has mostly concentrated on her new line of work, inspiring kids to embrace their unique qualities and learn more about the world around them. She doesn't necessarily 'do' research, but she is patient and allows research to be done with and on her, and even does this while the kids are there - how do you know what your limits are if you don't test them? She does group tours with mainly younger kids, ages 5 through 10, but she does at least notice how the teens sometimes come up to the group on their own, not just talking behind her back, but asking questions honestly and without judgement. As a hero, she is very capable on her own as well as in a team, and since her abilities do 'stack' she is often the blunt force leading edge of the combat in an area with lots of minions and people around. She can affect quite a few lesser combatants at once, and since they slow or are even immobilized the other team members can then disable or disarm them more easily |
 |
Beatrix is still somewhat self concious, particularly of her weird features. Did you know that she has hair? She's a mammal, obviously... but it's all stringy and gross and unfortunately can't really be 'cut' so much as 'broken off'... She doesn't care for her own appearance but does at least keep herself clean and dressed (unlike in her earlier days when she just - went out 'like that'), and has been learning how to manipulate her molten skin armor to be more creative |
 |
Depthstone is definitely her sidekick at work, and Snisk her partner in heroism, but who knows whether there will be others in her life |
|
|
As a glacier or a lava flow is powerful, she hefts the weight of both focused right at her fists. Overall she is able to lift a generous amount more than a normal person |
|
|
She can keep the heroics up for a very good run, though she is aware of when she's going to crash out, and hopefully someone else can pick up slack when she is in a hallway recovering |
|
|
Beatrix's hands aren't all that deft, those pieces of armor actually do still form on them including delicate tips |
|
|
Able to dodge and weave pretty well, but she's not really acrobatic as much as a powerhouse |
|
|
Average intelligence but she does know her limits and tries to work with them rather than get frustrated when she 'knows she doesn't know' something |
|
|
Though she's definitely passed high school with reasonable grades, she was never going to be a professor or actual researcher. Her current education is picked up from the Pepper labs rather than a sit-down classroom |
|
|
Though over time, Beatrix has improved her own outlook toward herself, other people have always seemed to dig her, and particularly children enjoy her presence |
|
|
She knows she's odd. She's weird even. But for some folks that's fine? She is however quite distinct and you're not likely to miss her in a crowd, even at a CHS pep rally |
|
|
Molten Glacier does keep attention on herself by virtue of her fists and taunts. However Beatrix Rose is not really the center of attention except in tours |
|
|
Modestly apt to zip off and help a person in the street, and definitely present and accounted for on team events, but Beatrix isn't going to head out to brave unknowns |
|
|
She has an average level of mutant ability, can be overpowered by multiple lieutenant-level enemies or bosses, but holds her own among most groups with help |
|
|
Molten is definitely good at the job of holding those enemies into place both figuratively and physically, and can pack more of a wallop when they're distracted by teammates |

She came from almost nowhere - looking exactly as she does now. Perhaps she walked from an orphanage, or she was abandoned by her parents at an early age: she will not talk about her childhood with a stoic frown and gritted teeth. She's nice enough, and friendly here because most folks in the school hardly notice that she's blue, icy looking, and has those ... things... on her head and shoulders. A number of guys in fact have told her they like them - but she discounts those words as an attempt to be mean to her later. Beatrix does not appear to be a terribly happy girl, but she's going to be okay.
Beatrix devotes a lot of time to practicing her powers, and as such has developed a routine for combat that even some of the instructors have perked up to watch. But when asked to perform these routines and have others emulate them, Beatrix turns shy again and stubbornly refuses to allow a spotlight on her actions.
She seems almost endlessly patient with younger kids, expecially those found here in the School. Paragon is filled with interesting people, perhaps she hopes that the kids who see her and don't see a monster, are the ones who will build the better future that she didn't get to enjoy.
Seemingly a creature of contradicitons, Beatrix is not the best student of brainy matters. She'd hardly be an honor roll student, though largely because she won't get up in front of people to speak unless truly prodded by an instructor or one of her few friends. She studies hard, and gets B's and high C's, but she's no genius. Perhaps that is why she's willing to don a 'mask' and go out to learn how to fight crime in Paragon City. With the anonymity that being a 'hero' brings, she does feel much more comfortable.
She was put almost impossibly on the spot when the other school's reps came, and those dragons... They chose HER of all people to go with them to look for a dragon? Why?!
But shortly, she discovered why. The dragons she saw were quite large, very impressive beasts. Beastly they were not - they had a strong social structure, and she had to admit she was a bit intimidated by the leadership. But then a brown colored dragon with frills atop his head approached her.
I will choose you, we will do dramatic things, my Molten.
Surprised to find the mental contact so smooth, easy to understand, Beatrix smiled widely. She nodded, reached her hand out and touched the dragon that called her 'bond'.
** 2026
Originally Snisk might have been intending to be more active however there's zero info online about this species, and thus this is a relic. Snisk still exists and is still apparently bonded, but is dedicating his time to helping the research efforts of the Pepper family, while Beatrix is being a hero. He is a 'Mage' class, though whether that means he can actively spellcast or merely has powers that emulate that, only he knows. When they are needed for a larger team event, however, Snisk boldly flies overhead to help move people in and out of an area. He knows, however, that she deserves a more bold and appropriately-skilled dragon to team up with, and will be happily on board with accepting another to their group.
**
Operating out of Talon City with a strong supply of folks from Crescent to the south, the Professor Pepper's Science Power Hour team spotted Beatrix and her dragon and realized their potential even if they didn't. Beatrix didn't like being in the spotlight, but she did still have it in her to be a mentor and guiding light for younger kids with odd mutations.
Always inclusive, Quincy and his family set up meetings for her to tour their educational facilities. Not just laboratories and mad-science castles, but science learning centers for kids, teens, and even adults. And though Beatrix is still not really 'all that into' the science part, she definitely enjoys presenting at the youth center. When she knows the script, and when there are young kids who positively light up at seeing her unusual face and armor, her personality has grown much more since her earlier, sullen and isolated, days.
She and some of the other Paragon Studies teens found ... or more accurately were found by a whole flock of Draca, from Tris-Hath, and this lovely blue female came to Beatrix. Named Depthstone for her blue coloration, this chatty creature keeps the kids from wandering around the Science Center unattended and will nudge them back to the group when needed.
