I am an accomplished cryogenicist. My beloved wife Nora was stricken with a fatal degenerative disease. I placed her in suspended animation while searching for a way to cure her. But GothCorp's CEO Ferris Boyle stopped funding the research—and Nora's life—and pulled the plug, triggering an accident that transformed Fries' body into a cold-blooded form that must always be kept at subzero temperatures; at normal room temperature he will die.

Wielding a number of freezing weapons, I wear a protective cryogenic suit in his quest to somehow restore his wife to full health and avenge her fate—which I partly hold Batman responsible for.
