IceMan.EXE

IceMan.EXE is a NetNavi operated by Dr. Froid (Hikawa Seiji) in the games and by his son, Tory Froid (Hikawa Tohru), in the anime. IceMan and Froid were forced to work for the WWW when Dr. Froid's son was kidnapped (the reverse is also true in the anime as well).

Appearance
IceMan is small and has a very childlike appearance. He has a young looking face with big brown eyes and pink swirly rosy cheeks. He wears a mint green snow suit with white fleecy cuffs and ankles, and a matching winter hat on his head. He also wears brown winter boots on his feet. His overall appearance is based on Eskimos, hence his name IceMan.

Mega Man Battle Network
IceMan is the NetNavi of Dr. Froid. In the game, he is forced to use IceMan to freeze the water of Den Town and pollute it. His motive to the crime was that the WWW had kidnapped his son and used this as leverage for manipulation. MegaMan defeats IceMan and ProtoMan arrives to delete him, but IceMan quickly defrosts the purification machine and MegaMan convinces ProtoMan to be merciful given the circumstances. Dr. Froid and IceMan later assist in Lan and MegaMan's assault on Wily Castle.

Mega Man Network Transmission
IceMan appears as a boss in this game. While at the Waterworks, Dr. Froid installed the fake Zero vaccine into IceMan. IceMan then proceeds to go on a rampage shortly before Lan and MegaMan appear to help. Dr. Froid asks them to help IceMan. After proceeding through the Waterworks, MegaMan battles with IceMan. After MegaMan defeats IceMan, IceMan comes to his senses. Dr. Froid jacks out IceMan before deletion.

Anime History
In the anime series, IceMan's operator is Tory Froid instead of his father and although the two of them start out as reluctant antagonists, the both of them eventually become allies with Lan Hikari, MegaMan, and the rest of their friends.

Power and Abilities
IceMan hurts a lot, but he lacks a high amount of HP. He also runs around the arena quite a bit. IceMan is weak to electric attacks, so it is recommended that the player uses electric battle chips like ElecBlde or MagBomb1. IceMan can drop an IceSlshr battle chip or IceMan Navi chip when defeated.
 * Ice Slasher: IceMan shoots a shard of ice that travels forwards (MegaMan Network Transmission).
 * IceCube: When the player is too close, IceMan will sometimes create a block of ice in each row in the front column of his area in the first game. In Rockman.EXE 4.5 he uses this as a timestop chip that places 3 ice blocks on the front column on his side of the field all at once. IceMan can kick his iceblocks sending them at the enemy, leaving them in the back row if they miss.
 * Freeze Bomb: IceMan will fire a glacier bomb in a cross patterm, centering at the opponent's panel that freezes on contact in the first game. In EXE 4.5 it hits above and below and creates ice panels.
 * Ice Spikes: IceMan throws up snowflakes into the air, three on each side of them. When the snowflakes land, shards of ice shoot up from where they land. Uses when HP is low in Network Transmission.

Trivia

 * In Mega Man Battle Network 3, IceMan appears on a popsicle poster in SciLab.
