Bio

Pre-War Games

The only princess heir to the crown of Lestava. Lestava Castle's Oracle tells Snow to leave the castle and assemble an army to fight her step-mother Chess Pieces' Queen Diana. She and Edward fled Lestava Castle and settled on Pazurika Island in a frozen castle. When the Chess Pieces attacked, she used Iced Earth to surround herself in ice prompting the Chess Piece members Ian and Loco to wait for Halloween to arrive with a flame Nature ÄRM. She was thawed from the ice by Ginta when Alan lended him the ÄRM of Flame.

War Games

In the War Games, Snow faces off against Fuugi on the Desert Field in the 2nd Round and wins against him. In the 3rd Round at the Volcano Field, she lost to Mr. Hook since she didn't have the advantage there. While the others were training for the fourth round, Snow had Alan send her into the Training Gate so she can rest up. She received a new ÄRM when she was at Caldia with Team MÄR. When it came to the 5th Round at the Desert Field, she used her ÄRM Undine to defeat Emokis (who called Snow ugly). In her match at the Mushroom Field during the 6th Round, she faces off against her old babysitter Magical Roe who captures under the orders of Diana.

Post War Games

Anime version: After the War Games are over, Team MÄR storms Lestava Castle to rescue Snow, and in penance Magical Roe sacrifices his life to save her. When the Ghost Chess came into view, she along with Team MÄR were captured, but managed to escape with the help of Chaton and Loco. When King shows up in person, Snow is killed alongside Nanashi. At the end of the anime, Snow and Koyuki became one being and ended up staying in Ginta's world to be with him.

Manga version: After the War Games ended, Team MÄR rushed in and fought Magical Roe. They soon found out the Queen was using her to open a portal to the world Ginta came from. After a fight with the Queen, Snow was released. After a fight with the King, Snow met her dad again. In the end, Ginta gave her a chocalate bar as a good luck charm.

Personality

Snow is fun-loving and easy-going but can be serious in battle situations, and is notable for the fact that she looks and acts exactly like Koyuki, Ginta's crush in the real world - her own alternate versions, with whom she shares views of each other's world, and an affection toward Ginta, and was also Ginta's first kiss. She gets jealous whenever Dorothy gets too close to Ginta. They are considered being the first couple of MAR.

ÄRM

A user of ice-themed ÄRMs, and later water-themed:

* Ice Sword: An ring ÄRM that solidifies water in the air into a sword covering the user's hand.
* Iced Earth: Nature ÄRM can shape ice shards use for long ranged attacks/freezes Snow's surrounding. Girom also has this type of ÄRM, but it doesn't have the 2nd feature.
* Snowman: Nicknamed "Yuki-Chan" by Snow herself, this Guardian snowman can multiply itself and can reform even after complete destruction. When in its inactive necklace form, it appears to reflect Snow's emotion.
* Healing Angel: A pendant ÄRM obtained from Ian of the Chess Piece Army when he lost to Ginta. It is a Holy-type that can heal injuries, to a certain extent.
* Undine: A Guardian ÄRM ring and gift from Caldia, which summons a beautiful water nymph with devastating torrential power.
