We’ve now got three new GM characters and more to come 
Name: Nauja (Granny Nauja)
Age: 65
Gender: Female
Appearance: Nauja is 5’2", although she has a noticeable hunch in her posture. Her skin is red and toughened from the sting of snow. Her seal skin boots and caribou coat and pants hide the rather simple grey attire she wears most days, and her necklace is made of polar bear teeth - something she will never allow you to forget. Her gloves are also made of caribou skin, and all of her outer layer is worn and weathered. She usually keeps her hair in a bun and secures it with a carved seal rib.
Weapon/Tools: Nauja carries an Inuit fish spear, which consists of one center needle-like prong and two inward prongs set on curved extensions, designed to hook fish from three sides and pin them in place. She also carries an ulu knife for close-quarters combat or, y’know, skinning seals. She detests firearms and refuses to use them.
Personality/Bio: Nauja came from the great Canadian north, the only child of her family and never finding a husband to settle down with. At some point during her adult life, she was attacked by a polar bear and managed to kill it before it got the chance to mangle her, a story she eagerly recounts. Burying her parents some years ago, she made the long journey south to warmer country, eventually settling not too far from the depot town and watching its construction. Before too long, she became very well acquainted with the goings-on of the people there, and found herself becoming an integral part of its community, whether she liked it or not.
Although she will insist she hates company, conversation, children, celebrations, and communal feasts, she not only willingly participates in all of the above but very frequently goes above and beyond. Always ribbing everyone around her no matter their age, she’s not afraid to greet people with a smile, even in the middle of a tough love lecture. Particularly gets on Elijah Wembley’s nerves.
Name: Tagwanibisan “Tags” Dumont
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: Tags is 5’11", thin, athletic, full of energy, with a temperament better fitting someone half her age. Her long brown hair extends to the middle of her ribcage, and somehow stays perfectly straight despite all the trouble she gets up to. Her skin is not quite as red as Nauja’s, and almost untouched by the elements despite her continued presence outdoors. Her tight-fitting caribou attire is all hand-made, by Nauja, and while she wears seal skin boots to match, she greatly prefers the modern gloves with fingers over the caribou mitts.
Weapon/Tools: A crack shot with her Jarmann M28 harpoon rifle, imported from overseas specifically at her request - the mayor never could resist giving gifts to the children, even if it meant spending a good chunk of the town’s money to do so. She also carries a carving knife, although the idea of cleaning anything other than her plate is an appalling one to her.
Personality/Bio: Born not too long after the depot town was founded, Tags was taken in by Nauja almost immediately, as her father, a French Canadian, skipped town, and her mother died during her birth. She grew up to detest the slow and content lifestyle of her foster grandmother and loved the idea of high-speed dog sleds, fighting in the World War, and basically doing everything she could to irk her Granny Nauja.
Her disposition towards everything and everyone is to have the attention span of a four year old on a sugar high, except with the intelligence of a teenager eager to push buttons. What she truly wants deep down is someone to relate to, but the closest person she has is Tesso, and he rejects her every time. Until she finds that someone, however, she’ll keep pushing everyone and everything to move faster, act quicker, and be better.
Name: Tessouat “Tesso” Eland
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Appearance: At 5’8", Tesso’s Algonquin genes dominated his european half, giving him almond skin and straight black hair set in an overgrown bowl cut. He wears a tight-fitting wool turtleneck and oversized work pants cinched tight with a belt, and has a stiff jacket clearly too large for him thrown over his shoulders. His wheelchair has an elaborate wooden back and three wheels, with the small third wheel in the back supported by a powerful brake clamp accessible in the arm of the chair. He typically wears a blanket over his legs when seated.
Weapons/Tools: While Tesso is quite knowledgeable around firearms, he has only a sawed-off shotgun usually hidden under the blanket atop his legs. He also has a small knife made from whale bone kept by his father, which he mostly retains as a keepsake.
Personality/Bio: Tesso’s father Mannes immigrated to the United States and moved to Canada for work, slowly traveling further and further west. There he met and married Sokanon, and the two had Tessouat shortly after. Tesso’s father was shot down during War Plan Red, something Tesso has never full recovered from. Just before his father’s death, Sokanon contracted polio, and the town crafted her a special wheelchair to get about with. She was bedridden shortly after Mannes’s death, and despite all that Tesso did to care for her, she eventually passed away, leaving him alone in the rapidly industrializing depot town. He clung to the chair in his misery, and before too long began to complain of the same incapability his mother suffered from.
Tesso is almost always in a state of misery, even if his angel-like face refuses to show it. He keeps himself distracted by mentally memorizing Quebec Sign Language, taught to him by his mother out of fear that the polio could render her mute. He bears no great sympathy towards Americans, holding them all partially responsible for the death of his father. In spite of his grief, he snaps at anyone that pries, delving all too readily to petty insults and blatant aggression for those who press topics he doesn’t wish to discuss.
