    Origin

    The demon Snowman was once an indian, living in the 19th century. As a boy out hunting with his father, the boy got attacked by a bear and lost his left leg. It never stopped him from hunting however.

    As a married man, his wife bore him a daughter. One day, a white man came, talking of peace between the indian tribe and his group. His chief accepted the peace treaty. Two weeks after the treaty, his brother-in-law went hunting in the open plains. There his brother-in-law discovered that the treaty was a lie when one of the white men shot him dead. His wife's heart broke and he swore vengeance against the invaders.
