Winterfolk

Winterfolk are furry, somewhat lemur-like Parahumans, well-suited to the cold of their crystal-plumed homeworld, Winterjewel. While adapted to the cold, they save much of their energy through extensive resting.
==Culture and Relationships==
(fanon extrapolation from book)
*The Phoenix Domain -- Winterfolk tend to hate the Domain settlers and their feudal encroachment. The flags of the Cabal, the Domain, and Darkstar Mining are symbols of terrible violence in Winterfolk culture. 
**If you're fighting alongside Winterfolk, chances are these are who you're fighting against.
*The Federation -- Various levels of feelings about the Federation. Some groups of Winterfolk have stories of Federation heroes, while some have never heard of the Federation at all.
*Kinski -- The catlike Kinski have developed a sort of cultural affinity for the Winterfolk, and vice versa. Some Kinski have settled peacefully among the Winterfolk, and some Winterfolk have joined Kinski ship crews.
*Snow Spiders -- snow spiders are dog-sized, eight-legged predators native to the tundras of Winterjewel. As one can expect, they're featured heavily in Winterfolk iconography.
*Winterfolk also make extensive use of crystals in their art, tools and jewelry
===Fanon Notes===
*As with bears and other hibernating species, it may be possible for Winterfolk to not hibernate at all as long as they can acquire enough food and warmth--although they may feel a bit sluggish during the sleepy season.
