**Snowflake**, sometimes referred as **Mr. Snowflake**, **Snowman** or **Mr. Snowman** is a figure from Brittle folklore. They are a boogie man type figure who is said to live deep in the Brittle woods below the large snowy mountains.

He is said to lure in children by singing local carols and covering his body in colourful looking lights to appear friendlier and approachable.

He is used in stories in order to keep children from venturing out by themselves on the woods, especially at night. Encounters aren't often reported as very few of those who met him have lived to tell the tale.

Survivors often claim to hear a constant festive singing in the distance, they either end up seeking to find the Snowman once again, or are slowly lead into insanity.

## **Appearance**

Snowflake is a large and tall monster of an ambiguous Drimare species. They stand at roughly 2 to 3 meters tall and their body appears to be completely furred, with the exception of the skin on their face, ears and fingers. They have round eyes with black and red pupils as well a thin smile filled with perfectly straight teeth.

They have two large and beige reindeer-like horns and fur growing from their ears. Overall their fur and hair is completely black, and the also have a light grey chest fur that grows from their chest up to their neck like a collar. Their forearms are also covered in this same grey fur.

They have a thick lionine tail with dark grey fur on the tip and their legs are satyr-like, appearing to be hooved. While Snowflake stands as tall and crooked, rather than walking on two legs, they are more likely to move on all four instead. For their size and posture, they are a LOT faster than you'd imagine.

## **The Snowman's Feast**

The Snowman's Feast is a holiday originating from Brittle, centered around the urban legend of Snowflake. On a surface level, this holiday shares similarities with the waking world's Christmas, however, it has its own distinct origins.

In order to appease the cryptid, many generations ago, the inhabitants of the villages in Brittle began to prepare offerings to offer to the creature. Snowflake was known to abduct lone travelers and children who ventured out by their lonesome, so providing offerings was believed to appease it, at least for a year.

With this, a tradition of putting presents by a large decorated tree in the villages was formed, and as generations went by, the whole story became more of a fairytale than anything else. Inhabitants of Brittle became quite giving folk, having been taught that by not participating in the event and not being giving in general, was a fast way to lure bad luck their way.

It's a day of feasting and celebration, but by night time, inhabitants are expected not to leave their homes and also leave all their lights turned off. The only lights to be on are the ones on the decorated tree in the village where offerings will be left. This is said to lure the Snowman away from their homes and keep their focus on the offerings.

Although this holiday is mostly celebrated by the inhabitants of the Brittle regions, the tradition of offering gifts and celebrating during the winter months has occasionally been adopted by other regions, but only those living in Brittle take as seriously. Villages not participating the feast are said to be inviting great misfortune their way.

## **Lore**

The lore behind Snowflake is quite dubious. Every native tells a different story, none knowing whether their version is the real one or fictitious. Some say they were a demon cursed to live in the woods, others speak of a lone traveler who was turned into a type of bloodthirsty weredeer and roams by itself.

A popular version of the story tells the tale that Snowflake was a child who was abandoned in the woods and began luring in other children in so he wouldn't be alone, taking them to a magical pocket dimension where fun was never ending. There have even been theories that Snowflake is a corrupt Reaper, consumed by a desire to take souls for itself by any means.

No one knows what happens to the missing children. During holiday season, parents of missing children have reported received wrapped present-like packages at their doors with contents such as bloody ***[REDACTED]***, skinned ***[REDACTED]*** or other severed ***[REDACTED]***, such occurrences are extremely rare however, with no ties to Snowflake other than timing and coincidence.
