Biography
Nic was always seen together with his floating fridge, which he holds in a chain before Ydris decided to take it as his payment for helping the Soul Riders save Fripp. According to Nic Stoneground, the fridge contains nearly anything inside of it. However Nic has the impression that by opening the fridge he is forced to pay bills that he doesn't know about, and because of that Nic only opens his fridge if he is really hungry. He had been carrying the fridge with him in all of his trips until it was taken away and used to save Fripp.
Nic is being funded by A.A.E. One of Nic's big goals is to find the Snowman. But his main goal is to find a hidden valley - full of unicorns and treasure. In the recent years, Nic has received the indications that this valley is connected to the Valley of the Hidden Dinosaur.
Nic, just like the player, loves adventure and exploring new places.
