Snow the Gear Wolf

 

Snow first appears in my self-flagellating, self-insert web fiction SalQuest, where she is an "original character" even within the context of Salvador Roberts ending up in a world cobbled together form his own ideas. Which is to say she is a combination of concepts Salvador never thought of prior to ending up in the Endless Frontier.

Snow is a white wolf of the Annextrian Wolf Clan, Annextria being a world of animals with human-like intellect and lifespan, and the ability to communicate telepathically via "thought-speak". She is also a Gear Mage, enabling her to create and manipulate machines that operate by way of a cartoon logic of mechanics.

She's a character I spontaneously came up with as I write the very chapter she appears in, and she was rather fun. She wasn't intended to be an important character, but SalQuest has thus far been largely an improv-based story, so who knows if she may play a larger support role than initially intended.

I mean, probably not, given how many other characters Sal is going to end up running into, but we'll see.
