Snowmen are foes encountered only in the [[Overworld]]'s hinterlands, where they throw snowballs straight at Pit (though Pit can crouch under them). They are very tough enemies with 10 Hit Points, and may not actually be worth the effort to take down (though Pit should still try, in order to increase his [[Arrow of Strength|strength]]). This monster slowly but surely [[Enemy Tactics#Trudging|trudges]] towards Pit. | Snowmen are foes encountered only in the [[Overworld]]'s hinterlands, where they throw snowballs straight at Pit (though Pit can crouch under them).

Snowmen return as enemies, looking far more menacing than mischievous. These ice giants mostly appear in cold locations, such as those found during ''[[The Seafloor Palace]]'' and ''[[The Space-Pirate Ship]]''. 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. | Snowmen return as enemies, looking far more menacing than mischievous.
