I made that item! Made it with the magic that I stole!" which contradicts the statement made by Simon Petrikov that he purchased it. Further proof of his dissociation is shown in "What Have You Done?" when he responds to Jake's accusation of him stealing the crown with, "I didn't steal it. This is shown in a newspaper clipping that Marceline shows him in the episode "I Remember You" The newpaper heading reads, "Simon Petrikov unearths Ancient Treasure" and later reads "Silly man returns from expedition with a marginally exciting discovery" This newspaper clipping can be seen in an image above.Īs many years passed, Petrikov became disassociated from his original identity so completely that his only reaction to watching a video of his past was embarrassment at the idea of having once worn glasses. Sometime when the Ice King was still Simon Petrikov, he found the ancient text of heroes, the Enchiridion. This toy would be Marceline's precious Hambo, which she would keep and cherish until it was sold to a witch by her boyfriend Ash. During a period of the Mushroom War before Simon was completely lost, he discovered a crying Marceline in the wreckage, where he gave her a stuffed toy from a toy shop destroyed in the conflict to comfort her. The two of them bonded, but even she realized that Simon was changing due to the effects of the magic crown. Despite these unnatural body conditions and being in a land covered by snow, Petrikov managed to survive.Īs his mind and body became further twisted by the crown, Simon thought himself "too far gone" to find an escape from its influence, though he hoped that he could one day regain his sanity enough so that Betty, his "princess," would come back and love him again.įor a period, Simon was friends with Marceline, a young girl who survived the Mushroom War. Over time, his skin turned light blue, his nose became pointy and long, his eyes and hair turned white, he grew a full beard, and his body temperature dwindled to an unnatural low of 30☌ (normal human body temperature is 37☌). As time passed, Petrikov would hear voices and continued having disturbing visions without even putting the crown on. Simon never heard or saw Betty ever again and began to record himself on VHS tape so people would know his story. Petrikov had no recollection of what he had done while wearing the crown, though it was enough to frighten away his fiancée. After bringing the crown home, he put it on his head to make Betty laugh, but the crown caused him to black out and experience odd visions. In "I Remember You" it is revealed that Simon Petrikov discovered The Enchiridion at some point in his career, with the article pictured mentioning he was a professor of archaeology.Īt some point in his career, he purchased a strange jeweled crown from an old dock worker in Northern Scandinavia. He had a young fiancée named Betty, whom he referred to as his "princess" and loved dearly. Sometime before the Mushroom War, Ice King was a normal, olive-skinned, dark-haired, glasses-wearing human named Simon Petrikov studying to be an antiquarian (a specialist in the knowledge of ancient artifacts). The only time he has been seen in shoes was when he was working out before Slime Princess came to talk to him in "Loyalty To The King." Despite this, Ice King reveals that he is on a diet in "What Have You Done?" Ice King is rarely seen without his crown without it he is powerless and he is revealed to have a short length of white hair atop his head. Though the robe gives him the appearance of a larger man, Ice King's body is in fact exceptionally thin. He wears a dark blue tunic and has a large white beard that covers most of his body. Ice King is a short, blue, elderly man with unusually pointy fingers, pointy toes, sharp teeth, and a goblin-like nose. Some time before the Mushroom War, he had discovers the Enchiridion. His crown is also the cause of his loss of sanity, his unusual blue skin color, his goblin-like nose, his white eyes, and his beard. His magical abilities, including his flight and ice powers, are contained in his crown, and he is therefore powerless without it. As his name suggests, Ice King is also his title, announcing himself as King of Ice. His typical misdeed is to kidnap a princess and force her to marry him, which Finn and Jake foil every time. The Ice King (formerly Simon Petrikov) is the central antagonist (often unintentionally) of Adventure Time.
