Description

YETI
Latin: Yeti Borealis
Race: Demon
Species: Elemental
Classification: Secluded Ice Demon
Height: 2 Meters (3m when stood up)
Length: 4 Meters
Weight: 20 tonnes
Diet: UNKNOWN

The Yeti is an very rare species of demon, they can be found in the coldest parts of the northern hemisphere like the North Pole and on the peaks of extremely tall mountain ranges.
Sightings of them are rare, with only around 7 within a single decade, and only a single case of multiple being seen together, going off this, Yeti are thought to be solitary creatures.

A Yeti can be identified by the large and powerful body build and a skull like face reminiscent of a bears skull, this skeletal head is topped with a crown of ice.
The pure white coat that cloaks the body is actually made up of millions of frost crystals, when sunlight hits the Yeti just right the frost crystals will refract the light and give the Yeti a brilliant glow, giving it a very regal appearance.

Yeti are powerful Demons, being able to freeze moisture in the air in the blink of an eye, this can be used to either protect the Yeti from incoming attacks or even flash freeze any possible foe who threatens them.
They are also able to create powerful blizzards around them, freezing almost all things within range, once the threat is frozen solid, the Yeti will use it's powerful arms made of super dense ice to shatter the frozen victim into little shards.

Unlike most demons Yeti require very little Nether to survive meaning they can live within our world without much draw backs to them, this makes them dangerous compared to most demons as they have lost very little of their strength compared to when they 1st appeared in our world, they are however aren't too aggressive, which is very rare for Demons.
There have been some stories of Yeti actually helping people out of blizzards, no one is sure as to why a Demon would be so peaceful towards humans, but perhaps it could be that they don't actively aim to kill those they don't see as a threat to them.

There was 1 case were a small town at the foot of a mountain that was suffering from heavy snow fall and small blizzards, when investigations for the course of these freak blizzards went under way, it was later found out that it was an old agitated Yeti who made the mountain its home, and so was defending its territory from the people attempting to climb the mountain, it took a full year before the Yeti was finally taken down by Exorcists. 

In the far reaches of the northern part of the world, there is apparently a community of people who live in a frozen country, supposedly these people worship these creatures as a symbol of strength, bravery and nobility.
These people have a custom were individuals of a certain age can test there bravery and face off against the Yeti, but not to kill the beast, but to earn a piece of its icy crown.
Those who succeed will be viewed as great warriors and will be well respected by all within the tribe, but those who fail never return from the journey.
There are also some old stories of very Special individuals who go to visit the Yeti and return with the Yeti's ability to create and manipulate ice, apparently being "blessed with it's power" these people are said to be revered as Shaman, being able to prevent the melt of sea ice in summer and lengthening the hunting season, but these are just legends, told through the history of these northern people.

No one is certain if Yeti count as actual living creatures, this is due to their bizarre anatomy.
They appear to be made fully out of ice and lack internal organs like lungs, intestines or even blood, the only thing reminiscent to an organ is a large lump of ice were the heart should be, if this core is destroyed the Yeti will die.
Another method to kill the Yeti is to melt it, but this is harder than it looks as the Yeti can easily freeze the moisture around it in order to repair its icy body from the damage.



FUN FACT
i recently heard news that Yeti have been found to just be bears, this is funny to me because i had this picture for a LOOOONG time before hearing the bear news, i just love it when things just coincidentally sync up with my ideas :D 
This was a lot of fun to draw and i really hope i managed to keep the creature both cool and a little accurate to the information.
hope you all enjoy :aww: 

EDIT
i updated the design for 2 reasons
. too many people were mistaking the skull and arms as being made of bones, so i used a blue pen to make the ice stand out from the frost
. also i felt the old design was a tad too slender, so i built it up a bit to make it look like a more powerful beast
