The Snowager is | The Snowager is an [[wikipedia:non-player character|non-player character]] in NeoQuest II. He keeps order in [[Terror Mountain]] by clearing the roads of avalanches and eating various monsters that prowl the roads. At the beginning of the act he has gone missing - imprisoned by [[Scuzzy]] in his cave. When [[Rohane]] defeats Scuzzy, the Snowager can clear the cave-in keeping him trapped and the act is complete. | ||
The Snowager explains that his role in the ship's computer is to maintain the data lines and defeat rogue programmes - in the analogy of the simulation, clearing the roads and eating the monsters. A virus was introduced in the computer that he was unable to defeat, and he was trapped in a data loop - the cave. The virus is now in control of the ship's computer - the sentinel programme, in the guise of the Snowager, explains that it is up to Rohane to defeat it by entering the computer again in the rest of the simulations he was now able to unlock. | The Snowager explains that his role in the ship's computer is to maintain the data lines and defeat rogue programmes - in the analogy of the simulation, clearing the roads and eating the monsters.
