Snowe was the only son of [[Vincent Vingerhut]], lord of the [[Dukedom of Gaien|Gaien]] island of [[Razril]]. At an early, the household adopted [[Hero (Suikoden IV)|an orphan]] to be Snowe's caretaker and the two would become childhood friends, almost brothers, despite the inherent inequality in their relationship. Growing up with a lavish and spoiled lifestyle, Snowe did not grow into a bad person, necessarily, but had an inflated sense of pride which did not always go together well with his timid nature and lack of dependableness in times of crisis.

He attended the [[Knights of Gaien|Knight of Gaien]] academy with his friends and graduated peacefully enough. However, his mishandling of his first mission; escorting an [[Orark Maritime Trade]] ship which came under attack by the pirate [[Brandeau]] led to Commander [[Glen Cott|Glen]] inheriting the [[Rune of Punishment]]. When Snowe later saw Glen die after using the rune, he accused the leader of being responsible in his testimony, resulting in [[Katarina]]'s expulsion of the hero from Razril.

Following this, Lord Vingerhut ensured that Snowe would succeed Glen as commander of the knights, regardless of his inexperience. In an attempt to foster peace, he would swiftly surrender Razril to the [[Kooluk Empire]] and cooperate with [[Graham Cray]]'s hunt for the Rune of Punishment. However, the anger of Razril's citizens meant that he was unable to return to the port after leaving to attack a pirate band (in actuality the [[Island Liberation Navy]] under the command of his old friend).

Easily repelled, his small measure of authority would not last long and he was eventually abandoned at sea by his pirate associates.
