Killer Frost

Callum Mitchell, also known as Killer Frost, was Callum's second persona on Weirdocraft. She was seen on Weirdocraft: Map 2, which spanned from December 4th 2016 to March 21st 2017.

Early Life
Callum Mitchell was born on the island of Waterjoy on April 14th, 351 AI, also known as Shipwreck Day in local culture. The holiday celebrates the day the the S.S. Waterjoy sank offshore during a storm, forcing the passengers to create their own settlement on the island, what would later become Waterjoy Island's city.

Her mother, Agnes, ran the island town's flower shop. Callum grew up knowing all types of flowers. Her first memory was of hiding beneath a peony bush while her mother searched for her around the shop.

Leaving Waterjoy
When her mother died, Callum was only sixteen years old. The island matriarch, Soul, insisted that Callum take over the flower business. She did, not wanting to disappoint the family friend or her mother's memory, but at the same time, she no longer felt connected to the community or the island. Her mother was her biggest tie to Waterjoy, her roots, and now that she was gone... Callum suddenly felt the desire to leave for the first time in her life. She expressed her feelings to Soul, but the older woman forbade her to go. "Everything we need, the island provides. You don't need to go, we need you here," Soul said, patting Callum on the shoulder and leaving. To her, the matter was settled.

Callum knew that leaving Waterjoy wouldn't be easy, both in action and emotionally. Her neighbors, her friends, they wouldn't understand. Waterjoy was a tightly-knit community, going back generations. Nobody ever left the island for good, and anyone who did wasn't talked about anymore. It was seen as a betrayal.

Despite this, she knew she had to be true to herself, no matter what. Callum closed up the flower shop one night, but instead of going home, headed to the shoreline. She put her bag into a boat (one she packed secretly the night before) and pushed off the dock, floating away from the island... away from Waterjoy... away from everything she'd ever known.

And she'd never felt so alive.
