Age: 1110; looks 29

Personality: Shizuo is a very jovial sort of fellow, filled with confidence and eagerness to prove himself. He can brash and overly cocky at times, thinking that enough brawns can solve just about anything. He is an overly active person, always training to push his body past its limits further. He has a powerful competitive spirit, whether that is during sparring practice, a race, or even just drinking. He is not exactly fond of losing and tends to close himself when it happens, but he will forgive them rather quickly. Though somewhat dimwitted, he is willing to go above and beyond for the people he cares for. He can also be a bit of a jokester and tends to goof at the worst of times, but you can still count on him to step up to the mantle when things get tough.

Backstory: Shizuo is a half-giant, a rare breed that is the offspring of a human and a giant, though he has more physical relations to his human mother than that of his giant father. His father is a giant of a northern clan, and unlike the other giant clans who could harness earth magic, the northerners could harness both earth and ice magic to suit their needs in the frigid conditions they lived in. His father had left the clan a decade before his birth so he could stay with his mother without fear of dying one day without him knowing. As a child, Shizuo was unaware of his unique heritage as his parents refused to discuss it with him, and his father's use of shrinking potions to hide the truth. Growing up, however, was when he came to terms with, he was since even though he aged at the speed of an average human, he was still significantly more robust than any other kid his age and quite more durable as well.

After discovering the truth of his heritage, learning what his father had done, Shizuo had then set out on his own at the age of 15 to find the giant's clan and learn more about his people. Upon arriving at the giant's stronghold, he was denied access because of his human stature and told to get lost. Fueled by the rage of being simply dismissed as a pest, he loudly challenged the leader to a fight. If he won, they would accept him as an equal and train him in the way of the Giants, if he lost, then they could kill him. And while Shizuo was incredibly strong for such a young age, he was no match for the strength of a full-grown giant. As he laid on the ground, defeated, and ready for them to execute him, his father marched in, in his giant form, and offered in exchange for his life, he would rejoin the clan. Though racked with guilt and shame, Shizuo reluctantly followed his father's order and fled back to the village.

A few centuries had passed since his initial defeat, and now at the age of 330, Shizuo decided to return once more to the clan, though not for a rematch, but to help his aging father with work. Over the years, a couple giants were still annoyed that he stuck around, but they mainly paid him no mind as he avoided actual contact with the clan members. However, the leader could stand the fact that a human- no, that a half-breed was meant to be one of their own and devised a plan to get rid of him. Shizuo was given a simple mission, along with his father and two other inexperienced giants to watch over some humans as they rebuilt their fort from a previous attack, and protect them from any bandits or avalanches that may occur. However, this was not cased as after only an hour into their watch, a loud rumbling could be heard from distance before a giant ball of ice slammed into the side of the fort, completely demolishing the previously built wall.

From the west side of the mountain emerged bandits as expected, but along with them from behind were giants from another clan, which the small group was woefully unprepared for. While the group fought vigorously, they were still outnumbered and outmatch of the combined strength of both humans and giants. With the loss of the other two giants who joined them, and with Shizuo heavily injured himself, his father decided to take a last stand and try to buy as much time for his son to flee. Urging him to run, he used the bit of his strength and magic to bring down the mountain on top of the attackers. But Shizuo, frozen with panic, could only watch as the ice and rubble engulfed his father and the others entirely before eventually running off.

Upon returning to the clan, he was met with questions hush murmurs on why he was alone and what was the massive rumble they heard. Taking charge of the situation, the leader accused him of treason and abandoning the others to an icy fate. With Shizuo too distraught to rightly protest, the others believed his words. Charged with dishonor, and accused of betraying his fellow kinsman to cruel North, Shizuo was to be killed the next day publicly in front of the entire clan. Unable to deal with everything going, he managed to escape his cell that night while the guards were changing shifts and fled far away, to the south.

Another couple of centuries passed since that day, and Shizuo was now a traveling mercenary, occasionally helping to clear out bars and freeing small towns from bandits. One night, as he was planning to travel to another capital to look for a new job, he heard fighting in the distance and went to check it out only to discover Meliodas, Ban, and Diane amid battle. After helping them out with the problem, Meliodas offered him to tag along as they were heading to the capital as well. Shizuo took the offer as he wanted to learn more about the giant of their small group. As he traveled with them for the next few days, Shizuo found himself growing fond of the misfit trio, and when Meliodas asked him to join them upon reaching the capital, he couldn't help but agree.

~~MAGIC ELABORATION~~

Magical Power Name: Frozen Metal

Magical Power Explanation: This power enables the wielder to manipulate and shape the metal, as well as a mastery over ice. They can bring metal forth from anywhere, mainly by pulling out domestic items or from deep within the Earth's core itself. Their control over ice isn't to be trifled with either as, with enough strength, they could summon a heavy blizzard in the hottest desserts.

Powers: As a half-giant, Shizuo has all the physical strength, endurance, and durability as a regular giant, though it is greatly diminished due to his human nature.

Fallen Pillar- He can create iron pillars from the earth that can either be used for defensive or offensive purposes.

Spinning Iron- Creating multiple large spikes and lifting them into the air, he can then send them hurling towards the earth at high speeds, causing massive destruction.

Scatter Shot- He shifts a large chunk of metal into remnants of small daggers and can send multiples of them at a single enemy or at numerous enemies at once.

Hollow Snow- He can encase his opponents in a thick dome of ice that decreases in temperature with how much pressure is put on it until either he or the enemy is incapacitated.

Frozen Shell- Similar to how other giants can protect their bodies with metal, he and other ice giants can actually cover themselves in pykrete, one of the most durable known ice alloy.

Snowy Vortex- He creates a large blizzard that engulfs a wide range of areas, that can instantly cover the terrain in ice and snow. In addition to that, ice spikes will rain from the skies as well.

Dry Freeze- Taking metal from the nearby area and adding a small coating of black ice, he launches it at an opponent while it spins at high speeds. He can combine dozens of them together and launch it off to create a heavy mist to obscure foes.

Have they mastered it: Yes

Does it have any side effects: The more substantial the magic spell he casts, the weaker he becomes.
