Snakes

Overview

The Snakes are an enemy group in City of Villains.

Enemy Types

Rumor has it that Snakes are what's left of the long-vanished Children of Enos, the Mu cult that originally discovered the Rogus Isles. Or perhaps they were here before the Children fled the French authorities, and gobbled up the unfortunate refugees who tried to hide here on Mercy Island.
