NPCs and their groupings

The Wolves of the Blizzard beyond Time

Loki's snowmobile-riding gang. They run protection across the ice wastes, and steer scavengers who can pay towards places they might get lucky. And when it gets too cold, there's always Surtr's Forge.

Fenrir - Loki's second, and named heir.

Hel -- Loki's other second.

Völva (Witch) - Doesn't have the same sense of humour as the rest of the gang. With child, likely Loki's.

Flosi - Jumped Ylva one morning, after closing, maybe at Been’s order (they used to be as tight). He took her eye, scarred her face up bad. She got better, or better enough to pay him back tenfold, and kept his blade. He didn’t have the friends to do anything about it, so he ran, and now he runs with Loki.

Agneta - Laughed at Loki once, and got away light.

Styrmir - Has a condition that requires medicine. Carved the moustache on Loki's wolfhead. Was repaid with pain.

Ylva's crew and regulars

Bucket - Bouncer. Fat and friendly and doesn't have a bad word for anyone, but he'll stomp your face if you hassle anyone.

Helga - handles the performers. She keeps to herself, doesn't smile much.

Jinders - An old-timer, always laughing and joking. Picks up weird crap for props, and also picks up strays.

Bits and Jenga - the stars of the show, and a package deal. Half a dozen or so helpers, choristers, dancers, musicians - right now there's Babbers, Oula, Seven and Mill performing, Zeds doing repairs and general carrying and fetching, and Old Lars pouring booze and stoking the fires.

Camo - a welcome guest. He mostly keeps to himself without being unfriendly, and he's helped defuse potential situations more than once.

Ba - An attention hog, she's loud, and the fucking drama.

Rolf - is pushing on "investing" and "expansion". May be hot for Ylva, but flirts with everyone.

Gams - helped get the place up and going, and see off Bumpers. Never pays.

Been - has crazy ideas about steam power and piped hot water and shit. He's mostly been quiet since Flosi left town, and since Ylva had a serious talk with him about how he should stop fucking digging fucking holes to divert the water or maybe he'd dig too deep a hole and wouldn't find his way out of it. Probably hasn't given up though.

Plower’s crew

What's left of the roads are kept clear by Plower and his crew of crazy fuckers who drive these ancient snow-clearing machines, chopping up trees that fall across the roads, and get all the food, drink, and heat at any settlement that doesn't want to end up cut off, never to be heard from again.

A road is any stretch of frozen ground with less than a foot of snow on it, or any river or lake with more than a foot of ice. If Plower's crew says you can drive there, you can drive there. Anywhere else? You're taking your chances.

Plower - in charge.

Dog’s Head - Had a little dalliance with Loki some time back. There's still some moon eyes, but that's on Dog's Head, isn't it?

Surtr's crew

Surtr - in charge.

Mother Superior´s crew

Found Skuld in the woods; mostly gone or split up now.

Superior - tough as old boots, but something Skuld told her scared her.

Morth - a drunk. Works for Surtr now. Tells the story of finding Skuld to anyone who'll listen.

Thief Eyes’ crew

Woodsmen, that crazy, creepy bunch who harvest timber and sometimes never come back?

Others

Brokkr Works on the Wolves' snowmobiles. Friendly with Loki. He does good work and he likes being paid in bits and pieces, so he doesn't need to go out scavenging for himself.

Lives in Logger's Town.

Places

The woods

Some go there because they have to get some jingle and wood is at a fucking premium all the fucking time. If they go alone, and they stay on the edges, and they get out before night falls, maybe they come back nine times out of ten.

But for the most part it's slavery. You fuck up bad enough and don't have the jingle to settle the debt, off you go on a lumber crew.

And then there's those who claim to trade with folk who live in there.

Settlements

The world is cold now, but in a few places there are hot springs or vents and you better believe someone owns that shit.

Some try to make do with firewood but that means the woods.

Logger Town, also called Gösta

Previously just a few shacks around Bumpers' place. Nothing left of that now that we've got logs coming in from the forest for proper houses.

Nowadays most outsiders call it Logger Town. I figure they're even less eager to go into the woods elsewhere.

Those who've lived here longest call it Gösta, supposedly short for "City of the Gods". The olds take the rituals up at the ruins very seriously.

Ylva took Bumper’s place at the springs, and built Ragnhall. The guy selling bedwarmth now is called Greensleeves.

Ragnhall - Ylva’s place. People come to Ragnhall to escape the darkness, the dreariness, the bleak fucking cold. For a few hours they get songs and dance and they get to be the gods of their own stories. Sure, there's some food and drink to be had, but the main feature is the crew of dancers, singers, and actors who bring the stories to life, with enthusiastic and welcome audience participation.

Forge

Surtr's place.

The Buzzard Market

The Scrapyard - where the rusted hulks of old trucks and buses and shit have been pulled together and remade to quarters, mostly for the indentured. People get sick in there all the time. Skuld lives here, and so does Key.

Fish-hold

Somewhere to the northeast, on the trade route. Where the snow never settles and the fjord never freezes.

Brettir has been there - he says there's a guy, I shit you not, runs a fucking spa. A spa - big steaming pools of hot clean water. You ever heard anything like that?

Splitsville

Two days up the trade route, such as it is, in Splitsville, they've got these skate races where they go around a track out over the lake and in through the town, and half the time someone breaks a leg or their neck. A body can make good jingle at that racing if they've got the skill and the looks, or can bet on those who do.

Crash/burn - Minko's place, in a prime spot where you can see almost the whole track.
