Arctiguana is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Polar Manzardill from the ice caps on the planet X'Nelli
Appearance[]
Ben as Arctiguana[]
As his name suggests, Arctiguana's appearance somewhat resembles an iguana. He is a cold-blooded alien (as normal reptiles) whose blood is literally very cold.
In Unleashed, 18-year-old Arctiguana still retains the clothing from his previous designs, albeit it goes all the way up to his head and his chest is completely covered up with a white underbelly shell. He has four pointed fins instead of three and the black stripes on his face do not go through his mouth anymore, as they now go around his mouth. The spikes on his face are now on his chin and his gills are no longer visible. The claws on his front feet are pointier and less dexterous, and he now has two claws on each of his back feet. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his chest.
Albedo as Negative Arctiguana[]
Negative Arctiguana looks the same as 16-year-old Arctiguana do in Omniverse, except his skin is recolored pale blue or more of a dark purple shade, the white parts of his clothing are recolored dark red, and his eyes and Ultimatrix symbol are recolored red.
Powers and Abilities[]
Similar to Big Chill, Arctiguana is capable of breathing ice by his mouth and firing a long-range freeze ray that isolates targets in ice. This ice breath is cold enough to freeze large bodies of water and molten lava, and can make an Arachnichimp's webbing brittle enough such that it can be broken free of. His ice is also very slippery.
Arctiguana possesses enhanced agility, as seen when skating across an icy path in a snowboard-like fashion. In the same scenario, he can use his ice breath to create structures made of ice.
Arctiguana possesses enhanced strength, enough to push a Petrosapien off a building and break a car.
Arctiguana possesses enhanced durability, being able to withstand crashing into a wall and being hit by a Petrosapien's shard projectiles.
Arctiguana can use his breath as a means of quickly hovering himself via propulsion (along with anyone holding on to him) across the ground.
Arctiguana can similarly use his breath as mode of flight via propulsion.
Arctiguana possesses enhanced dexterity thanks to his three-fingered hands and can crawl up walls without struggling.
Although he has never trained himself to do so, Arctiguana can survive in environments with sub-freezing temperatures.
Weaknesses[]
Arctiguana's durability has a clear limit, as he was harmed to the point of uncontrollably flying across an open area when being stabbed by Unitaur's horn and was knocked out from the impact of landing against a wall.
Arctiguana can be trapped in an Arachnichimp's webbing unless he makes it brittle using his ice breath.
