Biography
Member of the Council
- See main article: The Frost King (The Frost King's Realm)
One version of the Frost King was native to the land of Manik in one universe. He died at an unknown point, though he retained his plentiful supernatural powers in death, making his nature as a spirit a somewhat incidental detail in some respects — though the King himself was especially prone to minimising it. This version of the Frost King was a friend of Madame Tarsa and a member of the Council. (PROSE: The Frost King's Treasure, The Winter Quests, etc.)
Behind the scenes
The term of “Frost King” is sometimes used for the folkloric figure of Jack Frost. In L. Frank Baum's public domain 1902 children's book The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, the Frost King was a distinct, otherwise-unnamed figure, and the father of the younger and more mischievous Jack Frost.
The version of the Frost King used in The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids in 2019's The Frost King's Treasure and later used as a more prominent character in further stories, was clearly distinct from popular conceptions of Jack Frost, and given the use of Baum's Land of Oz in the Cupids series starting in PROSE: The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids in Oz, it could be assumed that he is a version of Baum's Frost King, although likely not from the same continuity as the more Baum-compliant Oz seen in the aforementioned later explicit crossovers.
