The suave superhero we all ogle at in the xmen movies, iceman, is none other than Robert Drake. Also known as Bobby.
His mutant powers developed during his teenage years, he was on a date with his girlfriend when the school bully tries to ruin it by taking his girl. Bobby gets pushed in the chest so he pushes back and all of the sudden the other guy is frozen solid. After no way to explain how he did it, Bobby was taken down to the station where he was going to spend the night in a jail cell. He gets broken out by Scott and Professor X who then take him home. His parents decide that it would be best if he would go to the school for a while. That was the last time Bobby ever sees his parents.
Iceman has the power to dramatically lower the
thermal energy of water vapor in his general area and thus it freezes into ice. He doesn't just create ice like people think and he can't conjure water he simple just lowers the energy of what is there. He can project an ice like armor around himself that he uses as defense against attacks.
During his time at the school Bobby falls for the mysterious and crazy Rogue. She can absorb someone else's power for a short amount of time, rendering them useless. There were many many problems during that relationship, arising from Bobby's fear to open up to anyone with Rogue's insecurities about touching people because it starts to take there ability to perform life functions.
Bobby during one of the rough patches in his relationship with Rogue, falls in love with Kitty and after seeing them ice skate together Rogue leaves the school and goes to get the mutant cure shot. Kitty and Bobby date for sometime before she finds out that he had started emailing Rogue again, then she dumps him. Rogue return to the school without her powers but with Gambits powers. They hook up now that they can further their relationship... they fall for each other again until Rogue's old powers return.
Iceman's biggest enemy is Pyro, a member of Magneto's team. Pyro has the power to control fire, though he can not conjure fire. They were previous best friends before they developed mutant powers and now they have conflicting interests. This a truly classical display of ice versus fire.
