The Snowfolk

The Snowfolk are a group of 15 mischievous elven folk that are known to be the daughters of a legendary winter figure that thaws from the ice every year on December 1st, The Seamstress. The snowfolk thaw annually every year from their home in the high-cliffs on the stroke of midnight on December 10th, where, one by one, on each day, one of fifteen of the elven folk travel to human civilization and begin to wreak havoc to townspeople up to Christmas Day when they start to freeze again. 
== Backstory ==
The Seamstress is a strong, mythical character that dwells in a large ice cap in the Parlinn mountains, where she sleeps with her offspring, the snowfolk, until the month of December arrives. The Seamstress slowly awakens from her sleep on the night of November 30 and spends the next 10 days waiting to awaken her children by utilising fire to thaw them awake, sometimes, she can overuse her fire which can spread into the woods. As a result, the majority of wildfires in December are believed to be traced to the Seamstress attempting to awaken her children. On the 10th day of December, the Seamstress manages to finally thaw one of her children out of the ice and sends them outside to "go play" while she begins the entire month of December sewing, ignorant of the havoc her children can possibly pull. Within the next days up into Christmas Day, all of the Seamstress's children have successfully thawed where on Christmas Day, all her mischievous children take breaks from their mischief and spend time with their mother before freezing up again. 
== List of Snowfolk ==
=== Hooligan ===
Hooligan is the first of the Seamstress's children to thaw on December the tenth. Once she is fully thawed out of her ice cap by the warmth of her mother's fire, she is sent off to "play" outside as her mother sews, waiting for her other children to thaw for Christmas. Hooligan's tactic of wreaking havoc includes taking large, boulder-sized snowballs from around the mountains she lives in, and tossing them into the village which lengthens the height of the snowfall in the village. Hooligan is also known to kick the snowstorm clouds that roam over her mountain into the village where they shall blizzard.
=== Irene ===
Irene is the second of the children to thaw on December the eleventh. Her name comes from the word "ire" meaning anger. Once sent off to play outside as her mother sews, she watches the mischief Hooligan induces and decides to follow her tracks. Ire, being an angry little sprite, uses her magical elven powers to grow ice on the townspeople's windows and doors, causing them to be too stuck to open, so they wouldn't be able to go out and carol. 
=== Joy ===
Joy, still frozen up, sees the devious tactics her sister Irene did to the townspeople and does not tolerate the lack of Christmas spirit. On December the twelfth, she finally thaws out and rushes out before her mother tells her to. It seems her Christmas spirit has gone a bit overboard because as she strengthens the Christmas spirit of the townspeople, so does she strengthen the booze in their beer cups, leaving the village all tipsy. 
=== Star ===
Star sees all the silliness her sisters are pulling in the village and decides to join in on the fun. Once the fire completely thaws her out on December the thirteenth and mother has allowed her to go play outside. She can't help but be very intrigued by all the ornaments, lights, tinsels, and stars that the townspeople have on their Christmas trees, she hasn't seen anything like it! Unfortunately, her curiosity can get too curious to the point where ornaments begin to fall, and so do Christmas trees, sometimes. 
=== Pestilence ===
Pestilence is the first son of the Seamstress to awake, and once fully thawed out on December the fourteenth, rushes down to the village to cause the village people to go all sickly. It is unsure how, but he may have some plaguing powers that strengthens the cold weather and lowers the immune system. He laughs at the sound of coughs, sneezes, and sniffles everywhere!
=== Glory ===
Glory is sickened by the tactics Pestilence pulls and doesn't hesitate to rush down to the village to get everyone back in tip-top shape again. However, Glory is an expensive fairy, and on December 15th, she sets loose some "glory power" which gives villagers the impression to spend, spend, spend!
