Before the events of Timepants and A Hat In Time, Snatcher used to be an prince and was in an relationship with Queen Vanessa, but one misunderstanding caused alot of pain in Snatcher's life until he eventually escaped from his prison.

## Personality

Snatcher is an mischievous ghost, where he enjoys toying around with others and makes deals with them for their souls. He also enjoys seeing Hat Kid suffer in Death Wish, but despite this he still seems to be concern about her safety. If hungered enough, he'll do anything to get his hands on an soul and/or an head to eat and satisfy his hunger, when this happens the one thing comes to mind is "eat" or "food".

Despite his antagonistic nature, he's shown to be concern about Hat Kid's safety, and tries his best to protect Serene from his ex-girlfriend Queen Vanessa, even to the point he would take a hit for her. After dealing with Queen Vanessa's antics, it's no wonder he ended up being the way he is, in Ice 2.O it's revealed that he's the one the actually takes care of Froslass, meaning he doesn't want others to go through the same pain as he did.

## Friends, Enemies, Etc

Queen Vanessa- At first before the events of A Hat In Time and Timepants, these two used to be an couple, until Queen Vanessa misunderstand and thought Snatcher was cheating on her. This cause Snatcher to go through so pain and misery, and so does everyone else in the village even though they all weren't involved. Snatcher confirms that Queen Vanessa abused him, and he hates her guts after escaping and realizing how much of an awful person she is in general.

Joshy- Snatcher's friendship towards Joshy in the series at first was a bit rocky, where the two would sometimes be "enemies" or Snatcher plays an trick on him (example: Chocolate With Nuts). However, as the series progressed and after the events of the Timepants Movie, Snatcher's friendship with Joshy seems to be sky rocketed and the two seem to get along well.

Serene- The friendship between the two were similar to Joshy but not really. Serene would sometimes be an worker for Snatcher for his contracts, but at some point after learning about the Pure Heart, Snatcher decided to go easy on Serene but he still makes her work sometimes.

Conductor- Although the two barely interacted, Snatcher seems to be on good terms with Conductor, and is even allowed to be in his movies, despite Snatcher originally making Conductor one of his victims but thankfully spared (Shanghaied) and spooked the living daylights out of him (**Snatcher**).

DJ Grooves- Similar to Conductor, however, Snatcher seems to know alot about DJ Grooves' sins that he committed and even seems to know about the events that happened in Kiss Of Death. But despite this, DJ Grooves and him are on good terms and Snatcher is allowed to be in his movies.

Hat Kid- Snatcher and Hat Kid are mostly an "Father and Daughter" friendship type, despite the two not liking each other at first overtime the two began to bond an friendship, and eventually they became friends. Although Snatcher still makes remarks on Hat Kid and calls her out from time to time.

Bow Kid- Similar to Hat Kid, Snatcher and Bow Kid have an "Father and Daughter" friendship type. However, unlike Hat Kid, he didn't hate Bow Kid due to him bonding with Hat Kid before eventually started to bond with her. Bow Kid and him are on good terms.

Mustache Girl- Snatcher and Mustache Girl seem to hate each other at first where Mustache Girl would mock about Snatcher's design choices and keeps calling him an "Bad Guy", however the two eventually became neutral towards each other to the point where Snatcher would call her his "best friend".

Froslass- Snatcher feels sympathy towards her, and feels bad for Froslass. This is likely due to the fact that both of them seem to have suffer the way from Queen Vanessa. Snatcher seems to have actually feed her and always seem to be hanging out with her from time to time. Despite Froslass' crush on him was out, he still treated her nicely and eventually let her moved in with him.
