The '''Snowman''' (スノーマン ''Sunooman'') is an ice monster from the [[Underworld]] and one of [[Medusa|Medusa's]] toughest guards. Because of its body composition, it is one of the few creatures that prefers to reside in or around very cold places.

==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
The Snowmen make up a race of primitive, humanoid frost beings that originally lived in the coldest parts of the Underworld. Their bodies are very resilient to most attacks, making them difficult beasts to take down. Snowmen are mischevious and cunning, but are also extremely territorial. As such, they don't treat trespassers kindly and will throw chunks of ice at their enemies until they either leave their territory or succumb to their injuries. Despite being Underworld monsters, [[Pit|Pit's]] adventures have shown that they are able to adapt to conditions at the surface so long as they stay within a cool climate. In addition, there also exists a shorter variation of these creatures, although they are just as strong as their larger brethren.

Snowmen have been confirmed to return as enemies in the game, looking far more menacing than mischevious. Despite their outer bodies being made of solid ice, the interior of their being is actually quite soft and flexible. In fact, the lungs of these monsters seemingly comprise much of their upper bodies, allowing them to inhale large amounts of air. As their balloon-like lungs inflate, they can rapidly decrease the temperature of the stored air to freezing levels and unleash it in the form of a strong gust of frosty wind to encase their foes in ice.
