― Icepick's Bio |
Icepick is a member of the Toppat Clan and a supporting antagonist in the Henry Stickmin Series who appears as a supporting antagonist in Completing the Mission.
He was stationed with Snowcap in the snowy Canadian Tundra, close to The Wall. He picked his codename because he worked in this frigid location. The conversations he has in "Stickmin Space Resort" and "Little Nest Egg" are overheard by Henry, sending him on his next mission.
Roles[]
In Completing the Mission, he appears as a major antagonist in "Stickmin Space Resort", the secondary antagonist of "Little Nest Egg", and a minor character in "Toppat 4 Life".
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Icepick wears brown shoes, and a fuzzy navy-blue top hat that doubles as his cold gear. During "Stickmin Space Resort", Icepick switches his top hat over to Sal Malone's top hat which is just a plain white one but keeps his brown shoes.
Personality[]
Icepick is shown to be both careless as he shows no concern for someone possibly listening to him, along with being pretty selfish and needy at times such a begging for another top hat in "Stickmin Space Resort" since he felt hot stationed in the Jungle with his top hat.
Despite this, he is very dutiful, as he still does jobs he doesn't particularly like which is seen in Little Nest Egg and Stickmin Space Resort. In those paths he is put on caravan duty, which he hates, and has to keep guard of the ramp of the Toppats' rocket. He is also very rational. In Little Nest Egg, his conversation with Snowcap makes him worried about the logistics and safety of the Train, afraid that not enough people are on guard, and someone will steal their valuables, which ironically does happen.
These overall make him the foil to Snowcap, who is much more laid back and careful, but doesn't have a great sense of duty.
Completing the Mission[]
Stickmin Space Resort[]
He is seen in a Tavern, near a Mysterious Vagabond. He has a phone call with another Toppat to ask about the upcoming launch of the Toppat Orbital Station, going into great details about the amazing features it has. He makes it sound more like a luxury resort, which gives Henry the idea to steal the rocket and turn it into an actual resort.
Icepick then reports to the Dogobogo Jungle before the launch. There, he complains to Sal Malone about how hot it is, because Icepick's hat doubles as cold gear for his station in the snow, and what is effectively snow gear will not feel nice to wear in a hot jungle in the sun. He asks if it's possible to change hats, however, he is rebuffed by Sal.
When Henry plows into Sal, it knocks off Sal's hat. Icepick picks it up and switches out the hat finally feeling comfortable. Because he was not on the rocket as Henry launched it, he was most likely arrested by the government along with all the other Toppats left behind in the jungle as explained by B. Hampton at the end of the path.
Little Nest Egg[]
He and Snowcap are at the bar discussing about the Toppat Orbital Station. While Icepick is complaining about being on the caravan, Snowcap is trying to reassure him that it's not that bad. Henry overhears this plan, and purposely bumps into Icepick so he can steal his paper with the plan on it.
He is later with the Toppat Train Escorts seen on the back of the Clement Warrantine's truck with a machine gun, on caravan duty. If the "Join the Caravan" option is chosen, Icepick will shoot Henry with the machine gun. In the second choice, choosing "Commandeer" will have Henry jump onto the truck which Icepick is on, and he shows disgust and pushes Henry off with his foot.
Toppat 4 Life[]
He and Snowcap are seen at the bar discussing something. They are most likely whispering because they notice the two other soldiers sitting in the bar too.
Quotes[]
Completing the Mission[]
Stickmin Space Resort[]
- "Hello? Yeah, can I speak to the chief, please?"
- "Not available? Well look, I was just wondering if the rocket plan was still in action."
- "You know, the rocket plan."
- "Firing up that space station into orbit? Yeah, the one where we can just sit around-"
- "No, li-"
- "You know; luxurious lounges, plenty of room, great view of Earth, far enough from any meddling governments."
- "Yeah. Still happening then?"
- "Yeah, right, we're leaving from that jungle base then, right?"
- "What? Relax mate! No one's going to be listening in here!"
- "You really think someone's going to try and steal an entire rocket? You must be mental."
- "Right, yeah. Yeah, I'll see you then."
- "But it's so hot!"
Little Nest Egg[]
- "So the plan's going through even without the chief?"
- "Ugh, I don't wanna be on caravan duty!"
- "Are we meant to protect all our stolen valuables? All our money? All that?"
- "Well, guess we better get going."
- "Ugh, oi! Watch where you're going!"
- "Ugh."
Trivia[]
- He seems to have a Canadian accent, which is far more fitting than The Wall's Russian-like appearance for the area he and The Wall are stationed in.
- Despite his few appearances in Completing the Mission, he has a major impact on the story. He appears at the beginning to Little Nest Egg and Stickmin Space Resort, but in those paths, the conversations he has that are overheard by Henry, indirectly prompting Henry to either steal the Toppat's money or their rocket, starting the entirety of the 2 branches he's a major part of.
- Out of all the pathways that continue from Presumed Dead, he does not appear in the Valiant Hero route.
- This is because of the Toppat Orbital Station that has already launched into space at the beginning of the route.
- It is unclear what kind of relationship he has with Snowcap, they could be brothers as they both wear fuzzy hats and are both nicknamed after something cold.
- It is possible that Icepick could have died off-screen in the Revenged ending as we see the Toppat Train and Icepick is a Toppat Train Personnel.
- It is possible that the Toppat he was calling in the intro of Stickmin Space Resort is Sal Malone as he is the only Toppat that Icepick is seen interacting with in the jungle, not to mention that Icepick said that he would see the caller there, and they are both near the rocket's ramp.
