Biography

As the King of the Twelfth Age greedily sought for wealth and treasures across the land, his travels led him into the darkest, densest jungle of the land. One by one his guards fell victim to the heat, the foliage or to wild beasts and yet the king-aided by his many Elemental Warriors-pressed on alone. Eventually, the King arrived at the ruins of an ancient Sargothan temple. This long-lost race of soothsayers had little treasure to offer, but the temple was home to another Elemental Sprites. Once restored to the Wotnot Book its identity was clear: it was Snare, whose elemental might kept the choking weeds and poisonous nettles at bay so that healthy plants could grow.

In the games

Snare is recovered when Yeros is released upon Queen Thyra's defeat. Outside of combat, Snare is primarily used for flinging explosive insects around. This becomes a key part of defeating Lord Drok and is the only way of damaging him.
