Snowmann was one of five special hybrid clones created by Bonesaw for the Slaughterhouse Nine-Thousand. They are a combination of Mannequin and Winter.
Personality
Snowmann exhibited similar behaviors to the original Mannequin, fast and deadly despite their increased size. They skipped around and dodged in battle, spun like a top using their blades, and even hurled their teammates into crowds to catch their opponents off guard.
Appearance
Snowmann looked like a fatter version of the original Mannequin, and appeared to be three times larger.[1] They wore the same white ceramic armor as the original, but wielded crude axe blades extending from their wrists, elbows, and palms.
Abilities and Powers
Like the original Mannequin, Snowmann was a Tinker specializing in sustaining life. Unlike the original, Snowmann worked almost exclusively with ice to augment their technology, a result of Winter's influence. Snowmann also possessed a slightly weaker version of Winter's power, able to slow projectiles and slow down movement and reactions when in range.
Snowmann's ceramic armor contains highly pressurized ice, causing ice to spew out upon being punctured, encasing and entrapping anything nearby. A similar design was used to surround an entire building during a previous hostage situation, and is almost certainly Snowmann's work.[2] Offensively, Snowmann utilizes heavier, uglier blades than the original Mannequin, more akin to axe blades than knives. They also have chains that they can use as a grappling hook to move around.
Perhaps because of their suit, Snowmann is quite strong, able to throw a Hatchet Face quite easily into a mass of heroes.
History
Snowmann took part in the Slaughterhouse Nine-Thousand's attack in Redfield, alongside several Hatchet Faces, Miasmas, and Murder Rats. Initially, Winter's power was blocked by Hatchet Face, leaving only Snowmann's tinkertech functional, but they still managed to break Cuff's shoulder socket through her armor while taking several bullets. After the Hatchet Face was killed, Snowmann managed to leverage Winter's power to slow down oncoming projectiles and severely injure an encumbered Tecton.
Utilizing his storm, Wanton managed to break away much of the ice that surrounded Snowmann while Cuff fixed Tecton's armor. Both Cuff and Tecton worked together to launch a net made of Weaver's spider silk and metal to trap Snowmann, allowing Chevalier to kill them using his sword.

Trivia
- Snowmann's gender is unknown, as their component capes are male and female. Taylor refers to Snowmann as male, likely due to their outward resemblance to Mannequin.
- Snowmann's name is a portmanteau of "Snowman" and "Mannequin", referencing the two capes they are fused from.
