The Snowgre is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Snowgres are immense constructs made from blue coral and icy rocks stacked together, given life by wizards who abandoned them. From the maw-like openings on their heads, they have a pair of blue eyes that glow in the darkness. They can protect their fellow monsters with their icy bodies and land desperate attacks, as well as being able to call forth pillars of ice-cold water and perform powerful stomping attacks that devastate their enemies.
