[edit] Character Background
Dr. Victor Fries (pronounced "frees") was a leading expert in the field of cryogenics, his experiments funded by GothCorp. He was happily married to his high school sweetheart Nora, but tragedy struck when Nora was diagnosed with a terminal disease. As a cure had not been found yet, Fries placed his wife in suspended animation, hoping to stop the disease's progress until a cure could be found.
However, in doing so, Fries utilized a cryogenic pod from GothCorp without permission. As a result, the ruthless CEO of the company, Ferris Boyle, cuts off Fries' funding and attempts to take back the pod. In the ensuing struggle, Boyle knocked Fries into a table of chemicals and leaves him for dead.
However, Fries survived, but found his body temperature lowered considerably. As a result, he built himself a mechanical sub-zero suit, as well as a "cold gun" that fires out a powerful freezing beam, and became the costumed villain Mr. Freeze. His first act as a villain was to take revenge on Boyle, but he was thwarted by Batman, and in the ensuing battle, Freeze accidentally hit Nora's pod with his cold gun, shattering it and killing her. Filled with anger, Freeze vowed to destroy all that Batman holds dear, and remains in his costumed persona to this day.
Though he is not technically insane, Freeze is often incarcerated in Arkham Asylum, as it is one of the only places in Gotham capable of providing the sub-zero environment that he needs to survive.
[edit] In Lego Batman: The Video Game
After his escape from Arkham, Freeze joins forces with The Riddler, Poison Ivy, Clayface, and Two-Face in their plan to rob the Gotham Gold Reserves. After acquiring the key to the reserves, The Riddler accompanies Freeze to the frosty villain's old hideout - an abandoned ice cream factory. Here, Riddler hopes to acquire the second piece of the "puzzle" - an enormous freeze cannon of Freeze's own design hidden somewhere deep inside the factory.
The two villains eventually find the cannon, and while Riddler hauls the weapon away, Freeze thaws out several of his henchwomen, placed into suspended animation in the same part of the factory. Freeze stays at the factory with the Riddler and Batman and Robin arrive, arrest Freeze, but like last time, the Riddler makes a clean getaway.
Freeze was last seen in his cell at Arkham, playing with a doll of himself and a Freeze Girl.
[edit] Abilities and Equipment
Freeze's main weapon is his cold gun, depicted in the game as a shoulder-mounted cannon. When activated, the cannon shoots out a "freeze ray" that encases any living opponent inside a block of ice. In this state, they are extremely brittle, and can be killed with a single hit. However, if left alone for long enough, the ice will break, and the captive will emerge perfectly healthy. In addition to freezing humans, the cannon can also be used to freeze liquids (marked by snowy sparkles) to solve puzzles with.
In hand-to-hand combat, Freeze swings around his cold gun as a melee weapon. As his refrigerated suit gives him superhuman strength, he can lift and pull extremely heavy objects, and has two "grab" moves at his command. One involves grabbing the opponent by the collar, tossing them into the air, and shooting them with the cold gun, while the other is a simple over-the-shoulder toss.
In addition to his superhuman strength, Freeze's suit protects him from toxic waste.
The henchwomen employed by Freeze, known as "Freeze Girls", are identified by their blue or red parkas.
