'''Terror Mountain''' is | '''Terror Mountain''' is a snow covered land located on [[Neopia|Neopia's]] northern ice cap. It is divided into three major areas: Happy Valley, the Ice Caves, and the Top of the Mountain, released between 9 November 2000 and 5 January 2001. | ||
Terror Mountain is home to the [[Snowager]] and [[Snow Beast]]s, the [[faerie]]s [[Kari]] and [[Taelia]], and several [[Christmas]] themed locations. Since 2010, it has hosted the [[Winter Starlight Celebration]] in the month of December. | |||
==History== | |||
:''Main articles: [[Ski Lodge Murder Mystery]], [[Tyrannian Invasion]], [[Hannah and the Ice Caves]]'' | |||
Long ago, Terror Mountain was home to the [[Bori]], who kept a treasure called the [[Heart of the Mountain]]. To keep themselves safe from the [[Bringer of Night]], who sought to steal the Heart, they cast a spell of protection, freezing them in the ice. | |||
[[The Neopets Team]] visited the [[Ski Lodge Murder Mystery|Ski Lodge]] on the peak in 2001. They were snowed in, and one by one were murdered - one of their number, [[Maverick]], had been replaced by a robot assassin. Later that year, an earthquake shook the Ice Caves and a fissure opened up leading to then undiscovered land of [[Tyrannia]]. | |||
In 2004, the Bringer returned to the Mountain, having been brought from the [[Lost Desert]] by the [[Thieves Guild]]. The Bringer attempted to steal the Heart of the Mountain again, but this time [[Hannah]] was able to restore the [[Bori]] and together they defeated him - the Boris returned to Neopia. | |||

Terror Mountain's | {{main|Team Terror Mountain}} | ||
In 2006, Terror Mountain's Yooyuball team consisted entirely of highly paid free agents that, while individually very talented, couldn't find a way to come to together and play as a team. After their crushing defeat by the [[Team Darigan Citadel|Darigan Citadel]] in [[Altador Cup I]], Terror Mountain's management began to rebuild the team from the ground up, starting with the signing of [[Osielle Lidel]] in 2007. Over the past few years, the team has slowly been improving, and in 2010, Terror Mountain had their best showing ever, placing 9th overall in [[Altador Cup V]]. | |||
