Snake
Basic Information
Location :
Alchemy Lab, Cellar, Dungeon

Cultist

first: every night

Snake is a cultist who spends his time in the tunnels below the graveyard. He hates village residents and talks about ending them. Horadric mentions him in the Royal Stamp quest. The rubble in the tunnels beneath your home will prevent you from reaching Snake until it is cleared. His real name is Seth.

You meet Snake by going into cellar for the first time. A cut scene plays, showing his efforts to get past the gate and access the dungeon. After you meet Snake the first time, he appears only on Envy (at the gate before it is opened, in the room beyond the gate after).
