'''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 They were snowed in, and one by one were murdered - one of their number, [[Maverick]], had been replaced by a robot assassin.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]].  


[[Image:Happyvalley 2005 01.gif|right|frame|The Happy Valley main map]]
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''' is the snow and ice world of [[Neopia]]. Terror Mountain is made of three maps, first of which is Happy Valley, a snowy hamlet at the foot of the mountain with shops and games for users to play. Next is the Ice Caves where users can visit [[The Snowager]] or buy a [[scratchcard]] with [[Neopoints]]. Last is Terror Mountain itself where some shops and games like [[Cliffhanger]] are available.

The '''Ice Caves''' are a series of sparkling caves made entirely of ice and snow.  Located deep within a glacier, these icy caverns are beautiful but extremely cold.  Despite their remote location, the Ice Caves have number of excellent activities to enjoy, making them some what of a tourist attraction.


The Ice Caves also contain a scratch card kiosk, the [[Neggery]] where normal [[Neggs]] may be exchanged for special varieties, and shopping areas, including the [[Ice Crystals Shop]], where weapons such as the Freezing Potion and Spicy [[Snowflake]]s may be found.
When the Ice Caves were first released on December 4, 2000, users could only enter if they had a special Ice Totem item. This requirement was quickly dropped however, and today users do not need a totem to enter the Ice Caves.

{{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]].
Terror Mountain's [[Altador Cup|Yooyuball]] team was known as "the worst team a fortune can buy" in 2006, due to the collection of talented players who failed to come together and play as a team when they were defeated by [[Darigan Citadel]]. Terror Mountain's management has since begun moving away from their overpriced free agent signings of years past and started rebuilding for the future. The centrepiece of the youth movement was [[Osielle Lidel]], a speedy young forward who stepped in to replace [[Tico Tems]] in 2007. While Lidel has the makings of a future superstar, it could by a year or two before he has the kind of team around him ready to seriously challenge the Altador Cup.
 
Team positions are as follows (bolded notes the Team Captain):

==Climate==
The weather is usually very cold all year round, with lots of snow and strong winds, especially in the winter when the temperature could dip down to as low as -50 degrees Celcius. In the summer the temperature is usually around 0 degrees Celcius.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The Ice Caves used to only be accessible with the use of an ice totem, which was gained by signing up with a sponsored advertisement.
*In [[NeoQuest II]], a [[Chia]] settlement called ''[[Chia Oscuro]]'' (from ''[[Wikipedia:chiaroscuro|chiaroscuro]]'', art using contrast between light and dark) exists on the mountain, where they speak a different language to most Neopians. It is not clear whether this settlement actually exists, or whether it is a creation of the simulation in the game.
*The [[Neopedia]] article for Terror Mountain was released on November 16, 2007.
*The [[Neopedia]] article for Terror Mountain was released on November 16, 2007.
 
*The name ''Terror Mountain'' may be a reference to [[wikipedia:Mount Terror (Antarctica)|Mount Terror]], a shield volcano in [[wikipedia:Antarctica|Antarctica]].
