Bio: The harsh, unforgiving cold is a test for many on its own right. Yet those who would conquer it must be stalwart of mind and body, and Polar Knight stands as a great example of this tenacity. He is a warrior of few words and prefers his solitude as he guards the stranded viking ship in the tundra. A giant wielding a two-handled snow shovel, he is the largest and most brutish of the Order of No Quarter. At some point, he fought mainly for himself, but has since joined the Enchantress’ order. Some time in the past, however, Shovel Knight and Polar Knight have crossed Shovels before…
Passive: Stern As The MountainHaving braved the tundras for a long time, Polar Knight has an innate resistance to even the harshest of chills. All ice-based attacks only do half as much damage towards him (rounded down) and he is immune to any secondary effect the move would have. Additionally, with his strong stature, it is exceptionally difficult to knock him down or even bind him. Attempts to do either of these things requires success on two rolls.
Abilities:Rolling Avalanche - Polar Knight kicks up a large snowball that will roll towards an enemy. The snowball itself does 2 damage and will stay rolling on the field. Up to three snowballs can be present on the field and each has 5 HP. Rolls will need to be continuously made for every turn the snowballs are on the field.
Snow Pile - Polar Knight charges forward with his shovel sliding across the snowy terrain, picking up any snowballs that remain on the field. The move does 1 damage at its base, but gains 2 damage for every snowball that is scooped up. Destroys all snowballs when performed.
Counter Stance - Polar Knight holds his shovel up and uses the long handle as a guard. If the opponent’s next physical or ranged move lands a hit, the damage is negated. If it misses, Polar Knight will retaliate with a forward push of the shovel, dealing as much damage as the move the opponent used plus half of that value (rounded to the nearest 0.5th.)
Snow Shovel Drop - Polar Knight jumps high into the air and crashes down upon his opponent with his shovel below him. Does 3 damage and inflicts Stun.
Snow Dig - Polar Knight uses his snow shovel to dig up the snow beneath him, causing three chunks of ice to scatter in front of him. Each chunk does 1 damage and each one has a roll of its own.
Icicle Crash - With a mighty stomp, Polar Knight sends several icicles crashing upon all enemies present, doing 3 damage. In a solo battle, it will also knock the target down.
Ice Pillar Drop - Polar Knight strikes the ground below him with great force, sending a pillar of ice crashing down upon the field. The impact does 6 damage on its own. Regardless of whether or not the move hits, the ice pillar will remain on the field.
Shoulder Tackle - Self explanatory. Polar Knight charges forward in a shoulder tackle. Does 2 damage on its own, but if an ice pillar is on the field, the tackle will shatter it even if the initial rush doesn’t land. This causes chunks of ice to fly out through the battlefield, hitting all enemies for 2 damage.
