BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION
Calvin was the son of an oil miner in the Far North of Canada. Without many kids his age, or much to do, he whiled away boredom by bugging the Giant Walruses that roamed the shores. Though it started out as throwing small rocks at them, he soon worked up bravery to waltz around them, soo enough touch them, and eventually worked to fighting the massive beasts. By the time he was 16 years old, he was a menace to the species, having KO'd every Walrus within 10 kilometers of his house. Once he turned 18, he moved to live with his mother in the city of Toronto.
With no more giant Walruses to fight, Calvin began to instead fight thugs throughout the city; Most of them being badly beaten after just one slap. While Calvin was very powerful against normal people, the boy still had poor training, and was easily defeated in his first match after he tried to combat a wandering Nomad. Seeing actual need to better himself, Calvin joined a Karate Dojo to better his skills. While the whole "Discipline and Honor" thing never really stuck with him, he did learn a few basic fighting moves; Now with the training he was sure was necessary, he rematched the Nomad who previously bested him. Although Calvin lost yet again, the elderly Nomad, Marshall Vi, saw potential in the youth, and took him into his training. As they traveled the world, he taught Calvin to manipulate his own Ki, which the boy specialized into creation of artificial ice for attacks.
Once he turned 21, his master passed away, leaving Calvin to himself as he wandered the world. He was far from home, and had no interest in fighting Giant Walruses or city lowlives; He now travels the world alone, lost with nothing better to do, until he heard of a Tournament taking place in Rio of which to test his mettle.

FIGHTING STYLE & ABILITIES
FIGHTING STYLE
Calvin's fighting style, called Barenuckle Walrus Hunting, utilizes focused attacks of intense damage to bring down tough opponents, influenced by both his youth of fighting Walruses and basic Karate techniques he learned. The style uses simple attacks, such as chops and slaps, with great force applied into them. As an additional measure, he commonly uses Ki to block off flows of heat, which he transfers through blows into his opponent, chilling them and draining their energy. He can also use this to physically create artificial ice, either to ball up and throw, or bind his enemies with.
SPECIAL MOVES & TECHNIQUES
■ Back-Hand
Calvin slaps with the back of his powerful hands, either to deflect a projectile attack or surprise his opponent.
■ Snowball
Calvin channels his Ki into his palm, sucking all the warmth from it, creating a small pile of frost large enough to create a snowball, which he then hurls at his opponent. If it hits, the frost will drain the warmth from the opponent, draining a small amount of their energy over a small period of time.
■ Frost Binding
Infusing his next attack with cold, contact means a rapid growth of ice in a small area around the point the attack connects, temporarily binding them in that area.
■ Blizzard Breath
Calvin uncovers his mouth and takes a drink from a bottle of water, which he then infuses with Ki that sublimates it into frigid air, which he breaths in a cloud against his opponent
■ Iceberg Chop
Calvin surrounds his entire arm with a thick club of ice, greatly increasing damage as well as protecting against counter attacks. However this attack only has one shot, and drains alot of Ki, meaning it must be used wisely.
■ Icewall
Calvin blocks by quickly creating a wall of ice that shatters upon a single hit.
■ Echo Clap
Calvin claps his large hands together, creating a small shockwave in front of him that stuns his opponent.
■ Walrus Punch
One of Calvin's earliest moves, this is a powerful uppercut punch intended to launch the opponent several feet into the air.
SUPER MOVES
■ Walrus-Anasthesia Slap
Calvin's finishing move against the Walruses of his youth but improved with Ki, this attack has enough force to knock unconscious a Giant Walrus. It takes a few moments to channel enough Ki into it, and like his other attacks is slow and predictable. However, Calvin may prepare it at one point in a fight and use it later, giving way to his strategy of "Missing" his opponent with this move, only to assault them with the real attack.
■ Avalanche Sprint
In a rare move of speed, Calvin begins this attack by slowly walking in place, growing steadily faster. Once he starts running, he channels Chi to surround himself in a shield of snow that becomes thicker and thicker, until he forms a massive snowball that he rolls towards his opponent to run them over.
■ Snap Freeze
Expending alot of Ki, Calvin snaps his fingers, which sends a potent wave of frost towards his opponent, almost instantly freezing them on contact.
WEAKNESSES & LIMITS
While Calvin is great at taking down foes through simple combat attacks, he has slow reflexes and very stiff movement, and can easily be kited. While he can slowly fatigue foes with his Ki-based ice, opponents with determination can usually ignore the boundries of their own fatigue.
OTHER
■ He is currently banned from coming anywhere within 50 feet of a Walrus
