The '''Ice Titan''' is a resident of [[Olympus Coliseum]], and one of the powerful Titans who serve [[Hades]]. He was an antagonist in the animated film ''{{w|Hercules (1997 film)|Hercules}}'', where he was named "Hydros". He appears as a boss in the North American, PAL, and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix|Final Mix]]'' versions of ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', as well as in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]''.

The Ice Titan is the last of the four sources of the bugs in Olympus Coliseum, and resides deep within the Keyhole, on Layer 30. Together, [[Data-Sora]], [[Hercules]], and [[Cloud]] are able to defeat him and fix the world's code.<!--add bits from cutscenes-->

The Ice Titan is a gigantic, emaciated, humanoid being that is, true to his name, composed entirely of ice. He has fairly long arms that end in clawed, four-fingered hands. His icy ribcage is always visible, and his upper back is lined by tall spikes. His head is rather small in comparison to the rest of his body. His blocky mouth is filled with sharp teeth, and his eyes are small and barely visible. He has a spiky crest decorating the back of his head and cheeks. His upper legs are very thin, while his thicker lower legs are frozen to the ground, forcing the Ice Titan to constantly break and regenerate them to walk. The Ice Titan is actually a very small being of ice, not even reaching Sora's knee, but he is able to grow very large in order to tower over his opponents.  

The player should set Firaga and Curaga to his shortcuts. However, using any form of [[Aero]] magic causes the Ice Titan to simply use larger icicles which cannot be deflected, negating the benefit of Aero and removing the main method of damaging the Ice Titan.

The Ice Titan's primary method of attack is firing ice shards at Sora. Deflecting these ice shards back at the Ice Titan by using Guard is also the key to defeating the Ice Titan. Each time Sora deflects an ice shard, he is rewarded with 24 Tech Points (120 in ''Final Mix'', with all [[Tech Boost]]s equipped), and once the Ice Titan has been hit with enough ice shards, he falls to his knees for a short period, making him vulnerable to air combos and [[Ragnarok]]. However, the Ice Titan expels a flurry of ice shards when he stands back up. The Ice Titan can also be damaged with [[Fire]] spells or [[Strike Raid]]. However, Fire spells take longer to hit than the deflected ice shards, while Strike Raid deals less damage and forces Sora to stand still, making him highly vulnerable to the Ice Titan's attacks. It is also possible to jump on the Ice Titan's hand when he strikes the ground, then ride it up to his head and land a few air combos before falling back to the ground.

The Ice Titan also sends out shock waves from his feet whenever he moves, but staying in the bleachers throughout the fight allows Sora to avoid the attack, as well as providing a better view of the ice shards he shoots.

The only real strategy you can have for the Ice Titan is to use Attack-L, Defense-L, and Auto-Block-L. The Ice Titan is, however, weak to fire-based attacks, so have commands that give you the move 'explosion,' and cast healing spells once your party members are at low HP. The Ice Titan can hurt if you don't block his attacks, and can hit harder if you don't have Defense-L active.

In addition to the ones mentioned above, if you want to spam magic, have Reload-L and/or Reload-Boost-L. In case you're about to get defeated, have Auto-Life-L put on Sora, Hercules, or Cloud, more-so Sora.

The Ice Titan first appeared in Disney's 1997 animated feature, ''Hercules'', voiced by [[wikipedia:Jim Ward (voice actor)|Jim Ward]]. Known in Disney canon as "Hydros," he wreaked havoc eons before the events of the film, along with his fellow Titans. The Titans' rampage was stopped by Zeus, however, and they were all imprisoned in a cage of lightning deep beneath the sea. Eighteen years after the celebration of the birth of Hercules, Hades, the evil Lord of the Dead, stole the young hero's godlike strength and used his power to unleash Hydros and the other Titans. Hades, playing off of the Titans' lust for vengeance against Zeus, then proceeded to use the gigantic creatures to take over Mount Olympus, as it was foretold to him long ago in a prophecy made by the three Fates. Together with the Lava Titan, Pyros, Hydros trapped Zeus in a prison of ice and lava, but before Hades could "get too comfortable" as the new ruler of Mount Olympus, Hercules intervened and began to free the various gods and goddesses Hades had captured. Enraged, Hades demanded that Hydros and the other Titans stop Hercules, but the young hero easily deflected the icicles Hydros threw at him. Attempting to trap Hercules once more using his icy breath, Hydros ended up freezing Hades, at which point Hercules managed to free Zeus. Zeus was able to topple the Rock Titan, Lythos, with renewed strength, prompting Hydros and the other Titans to flee Mount Olympus despite Hades's objections. Before the Titans could escape, however, Hercules grabbed the Wind Titan, Stratos, and used him to suck up the remaining Titans. Hercules hurled Stratos into space, and Hydros and his Titan brethren were vanquished forever in an intense explosion.
