The Snowager is an NPC in NeoQuest II, and contrary to his terrorising role in the Ice Caves, in the simulation he keeps order in Terror Mountain's roads of avalanches, which are actually the ship's data routes. He is imprisoned by Scuzzy and it is the job of Rohane and his party to defeat Scuzzy and free the Snowager. After Scuzzy is defeated the Snowager is free and reveals himself as a sentient program in charge of maintaining the ship's computers, but that a virus has been installed and now has control of the ship's computers.
