Description In the Snow project, there are six primary supporting characters, friends of Snow who help her throughout the story. They play so heavily into the story that you could say they're main characters.

This is the final of the six, and certainly not the least, is the star of her own side story: Tallara. While she probably won't be the only one with her own side story (I have been thinking of one for Chu), hers has little following to the main story while having a huge impact on it.

I would like to note that while she IS Inuit, I don't know enough about Inuit culture to say she is a proper representation of how Inuit people live/d. I've put what I know into her and then put a sprinkle of my touch to allow me to fill in what I needed for the plot. If anyone can give me more info on Inuit people, or can direct me to a place where I can get more precise answers, it'd be very appreciated. If possible, a cultural centre about Inuit people would be best.

While I've put a lot of her profile into the image above, I'll include a few extra tidbits here:

- Tallara is born and raised as an Inuit, but she doesn't hold true to the older beliefs that her elders teach.

- Tallara is the tallest Snow's friends, edging out to be an inch over Maria.

- Having performed many hunts, Tallara is very skilled with using a lasso and spears.

- Tallara once defended herself from a polar bear using a spear when it roamed into town. She never killed the creature, as she was ordered not to, but rather to scare it away. Since then, she has been viewed as being a fierce woman, one with far more tenacity and ferocity than any of the men of her village have.


Finally, I'd like to thank Yamino , who I collaborated with while creating Tallara. Yamino's own thoughts played a large part in shaping Tallara's character and she helped me find a number of resources to shape what I have here. If you're not checking her out or reading her webcomic, Sister Claire , then fix that!

That's awesome I like her outfit and back story. The fact she's Inuit is even better!

I found it was the best way to get people to read ABOUT the character, since most people won't read the description.
