Silas
Silas is a monkey character in Bloons TD 6. He is an "Ice Shaper" who has been described as an Ice Monkey capable of using magic.[1]
Gameplay
Silas is a Hero in Bloons TD 6 introduced in version 50.0. He excels at handling large groups of Bloons and features great synergy with Ice Monkeys. He is capable of freezing water around him and reducing the speed of Bloons in his radius like an Arctic Wind; his main attack consists of launching magical spheres of ice at Bloons, which slow and freeze them, creating additional explosions if the target is already frozen. As he levels up, he provides buffs to Ice Monkeys, increases his own XP gain by being near them, creates Ice Walls that freeze nearby Bloons, and reduces the immunity of White Bloons to ice attacks.

Lore
- Despite their differing elemental preferences, Silas and Gwendolin don't share a rivalry that goes beyond competing for who can pop more Bloons.[2]
- He knows how to make a grilled cheese.[3]
- At heart, he is a wanderer, having previously crossed paths with Popseidon.[3]
- He dodged Ninja Kiwi's interview questions "for the vine."[3]
- Currently, his origins are unknown.[3]
- His favorite ice cream flavor is plain vanilla.[3]
- While more of an outdoors monkey, he has played fire-based characters in video games.[3]
- Ninja Kiwi theorize that his ability to allow extra tier 5 Ice Monkeys stems from his conjuring "an almighty snowstorm so thick that the Bloons don't notice" the extra towers.[3]
