The living story
The story so far
He was born in New Guinea’s Fly River, where the water runs tea-brown and the snouts run long. As a hatchling he discovered he could breathe without being seen, and immediately understood the tactical implications. He has been a submarine ever since.
Happening now
He runs the river’s stealth courier service — messages moved underwater, undetected, unbothered. His clients include half the riverbank. His motto: "What surface?" The herons have filed complaints. The complaints went underwater.
What may come
He is designing the Snorkel Mark II — a longer snout, he claims, "for deeper stealth." Engineers (the beaver kind) are skeptical. Snorkie is undeterred. "They laughed at the first snorkel too," he says. Nobody laughed. That’s his point.

Why someone keeps Snorkie
- because he’s a submarine and he knows it
- because "what surface?" is the best motto in the Mirewater
- because the Snorkel Mark II is coming, skeptics be damned

- Personality
- The only turtle with a pig nose, and he works it. Snorkie’s snorkel-snout lets him breathe while barely surfacing — a trick he uses for stealth, for snacking, and, primarily, for startling herons. He thinks he’s a submarine.
