Snow Klaus is the leader of Team SPRT.
Appearance[]
Snow is a red eyed boy of average height with silver hair that sticks out at the ends, the ends of his hair being of a dark grey. He usually is seen with a bored, or sleepy, expression on his face, and it rarely changes unless he is aggravated or happy.
First Outfit[]
Snow wears a large red coat with a white trim, a belt with pouches containing dust, red pants with white trims and pockets, and black boots. His weapons are always on his wrists in compressed mode as white bracelets part of his fingerless black gloves.
Personality[]
On first contact, one could easily say that Snow is not a very energetic person or bright. In truth he would rather sleep than do more work than is necessary. However, if necessary, there are a total of three thing that can get him motivated: Money, Food, and Children.
Snow will do nearly anything for a few cents; shine your shoes or go into the most dangerous area and defeat the most powerful Grimm in the area, only if he knows he can do it and with the smallest effort available. He is known for being careful with money as every cent is precious. If something is too much work for a little amount however then forget his help.
Despite his name he is a rather generous and kind person. He has morals and won't abandon anyone in real trouble. He may place up the facade of a greedy person but in the end it is merely a self defense mechanism to protect himself from being hurt. He does smile and laugh and his kindness is one of the reasons why he has the morals.
Snow has a very soft spot in his heart for children, especially orphans. Having been one himself he knows how hard it can be without parents or those to rely on. As such one of the reasons he joined the huntsmen society was to get enough money to buy orphans presents but also save enough to give to orphanages. If anyone harms a child in front of him, he is not responsible for what occurs.
Snow absolutely adores food just as much as he does money and children. He despises it when people waste food as good was a luxury for him back when he was younger. As such he looks down on people who waste food and if his teammates don't finish their food or cannot, he will. Food isn't given to everyone, and there are those who have to fight to eat or don't get to eat. He understands this more than anyone.
In the end, Snow may seem to be a greedy, thoughtless, and lazy person, but at the end of the day he cares about those who were in the situation he once was in and truly wishes to help people, even if he complains and would rather sleep the days away when doing work only when necessary, such as when he is threatened to do reports if he is caught sleeping in class.
His preferred hobby is making crafts, mostly stuffed animals, to give out, but he would die before anyone caught him doing so.
Though, if there is one thing he hates about himself, it is the fact he can never lose hope or faith. He may say he has, but he never can't, no matter how hard he tries. This is both a source of his strength, but it is also a source of pain, for even when he is at his worst, he cannot give up, or let go.
Backstory[]
Snow was raised in an orphanage in the North for part of his life due to the early death of his parents, which were caused by a hoard of Beowolves. The orphanage wasn't very well off, as food was scarce and money was short. The children lived in poverty for a time. Snow was one of those who would try and help the others, but he could barely do anything. He detested this helplessness he felt and began trying to help if he could around the orphanage, even skipping out on meals if he had to. He worked hard to try and help the people around him, the people he considered to be family.
However, during a rainy day, tragedy struck. The orphanage was hit by a lightning blast. The building burned down. Snow and the others managed to get out, but then he rushed back inside. The woman who took care of him was trapped under some burning rubble. She went back in to save a child that was stuck, and in the process got trapped herself. The child escaped but she couldn't. Snow tried to save her but passed out from the smoke. When he came to, he was being rejuvenated by several cops and fire fighters.
He was saved at the last second, but the woman was burned alive. Snow swore to never allow another to die. Even though the children had to go to different orphanages, Snow decided to run away and remain in the city. He blamed himself for not being strong enough to save the den mother, and decided to learn how to be strong by living in a style worse than the orphanage. His foolish attempt nearly succeeded, but he was found by an old man shortly after.
Even though he was against it, Snow was adopted by the old huntsmen and trained by him. During the time he learned several survival tips and skills. He was even enrolled into a huntsmen academy as Snow displayed a very powerful desire to become stronger and help people who were like him. During his 14th birthday, the old man helped Snow create his weapons, Bifrost.
This happiness would only go on for a year though. The old man was dying due to old age, something Snow did not want. He began trying to take on odd jobs and freelance hunter contracts to pay for medicine for the old man. But once again, it was all for naught. No matter how strong he was, he lost another precious person. Snow was kicked out of the only home he knew shortly after the old man's death.
Snow's hard work was once again all for naught. Even so, the old man left two things for Snow; inheritance money, and a letter to a teacher at Beacon Academy. Snow decided to take the money and become a freelance huntsmen. He saw no need to do extra work anymore if the results he aimed for weren't going to come to pass. Even so, he kept the letter on him. It was hard at first, but his skills in fighting made up for the lack of faith people had in him. He took on the cases he knew he could do and had the largest bounty on them.
A few months later, after completing a contract, Snow traveled to Vale for a small contract to kill a hoard of Beowolves. He decided to wait for a bit and slept in one of the trees. However, he was only able to sleep for an hour before the hoard of Beowolves chased after a young woman. Snow, a bit peeved that his nap was interrupted due to the girl's collision with the tree shaking him out, decided to help the girl anyway once she promised to pay him. He easily killed the hoard and was about to go on his way, until the girl stopped him and dragged him off, determined to make the boy her partner at Beacon Academy.
Snow was reminded of the letter, and after being told about the good food there, decided to take up her offer.
Affiliations[]
Paddy O'Day: Teammate and friend.
Rosen Valentine: To say Snow dislikes Rosen's womanizing ways in an understatement. More than twice times has it gotten him in trouble. At first he was seen as an accomplice to a man he never met before and mercilessly beaten with words for it. The second time was in the forest, and after Rosen hit on Tikba, and then made a comment about her more well endowed sister, Tikba wacked Snow, missing Rosen by a milestone. Even sop, despite that he had to admit that Rosen was a good gunmen and fighter, and if necessary, would have Rosen watch his back during a fight.
Tikba Jack Lantern: His partner on Team SPRT. He saved her from a pack of Beowolves when the stampede she caused woke him up from sleeping in a tree. At first he saved her because of the food she offered, but it was really because she was in trouble. After a few tussles, he was forced into going to Beacon with her with a transcript sent to the academy and a letter he had. Despite their opposite personalities, Tikba is Snow's partner and treats her as such, despite her fiery personality and love for horror.
Abilities and Weapon[]
Abilities[]
Snow is a natural at hand to hand combat, and shows a great deal of fitness when using punches and kicks. To say he is the -physically- most strongest member of his team is the truth. Besides that, his defense and speed is average, but his stamina is above average. He only exercises to keep his body in shape however, he no longer possesses the desire to get stronger. Even so, he can easily send a Ursa or Beowolf flying.
His stamina is also impressive due to his conflicting nature. He trained long and hard to reach the level of stamina he has now, but it has slightly suffered due to his constant want to sleep. This also goes with his speed, while swift, he is not impressive. His reflexes are one of his greater points, as he could weave through attacks with ease. He is very precise in his attacks, as he would rather make calculated strikes that would finish his opponent instead of adding more effort onto it.
Besides his fighting skills, Snow is a very skilled cook, climber and at sewing, and while smart, isn't as intelligent as his teammates Rosen and Tikba. When it comes down to it he is more of a street smarts alongside Paddy.
Weapon[]
The two Dust Activated Grappling Spear (DAGS) Bifrost are Snow's choice of weapons. The claws can be shortened and curl over his hands to use as guards or bracers. The dust engraved on the cloth of the bracers is how he activates the Dust for various effects. Mostly he uses dust that allow him to cover the claws in electricity or cause ice effects. When needed, the claws can pop out and be used as a grappling hook. A ribbon connects the claw/hook to the bracers.
Snow can pop the claws out of place and cut off the ribbons and join them together with side tubes on his bracers to form a spear. He can only make this if he has both his weapons as there is four parts that are necessary to make it. Despite this it is rather easy to make and sturdy by itself. The spear can be thrown at a great distance but relies purely on his own strength. But when used with his semblance to increase his mobility and speed, can be used as a thrusting weapon. The spear has a Lightning Dust Crystal planted inside to cause electrocution when making contact.
Semblance[]
Sleigh: A friction type semblance that allows Snow to easily maneuver against the ground in a 'skate/snowboarding/sleighing' manner. It helps to boost his mobility but not enough to where it appears like teleportation. The semblance lets him cover large amounts of distance in a short period of time (Say ten meters in 5 seconds) and can be used continuously, but the lack of friction can be harmful as he cannot always stop by himself.
