Snow Leopard

A Snow Leopard is a creature that appears in the animated series The New Adventures of He-Man.

SNow Leopards lived in the Mountains of Zane on the planet Darius-7, where they were revered as a symbol of peace.

When the painter Helm came to visit Master Sebrian on Primus, he gifted the master's assistant Mara with a painting of a Snow Leopard, painted with magical brushes given to Helm by his grandmother, an old acquantance of Sebrian.

Mara confessed she had never seen anything like these paintings. The way they float in the air it almost seemed as if the subject were alive. She told Helm she would treasure it always.

According to Gleep, the painter had used anti-graviatational pigment with a chemical interaction that allows it motion.

Some time later, the evil Skeletor used a magic spell to make some of his own evil flow into Helm's paintings and make them come alive. He then commanded the creatures to go attack the inhabitants of Primus.

Sebrian and Mara woon found themselves attacked by the Snow Leopard come to life. They managed to escape Master Sebrian's Home by confusing the creature with projections of themselves. Soon He-Man and Helm came to their rescue. While He-Man faced the Snow Leopard, Helm quickly fabricated a new painting, of a heroic archer, which he ordered to come alive and use it's bow and arrow to destroy the Leopard.
