✗ C l o t h i n g :: The Algonquians used the skins from animals they hunted to make their clothing. What they wore depended on the time of year. During the summer; the men wore only a deerskin loincloth and the Algonquin women a deer skin apron. When the weather became cold; they added more and more animals skins wearing cloaks and robes to keep themselves warm.

✗ B e l i e f s :: The Algonquians believed in one spirit named
Kautantowwit. They also believed that all poisonous reptiles and poisonous plants were created by an evil spirit; Hanegoategeh //The Algonquians made sacrifices to both spirits// They believed the spirit Kautantowwit showed itself in the animals and through nature. Because of this when they killed an animal they first asked for forgiveness. They treated the animal with respect and care. After the animal was killed they said prayers over it and they never wasted any part of the animal.

✗ A p p e a r e a n c e :: Long dark brown silky hair, very soft indeed and an almond shaped face. Her body is slim and rather feminine. She lacks some curves in certain areas. Her eyes are a color of rich dark chocolate. And as of her skin color; a beautiful bronze tone. Even in modern days she sometimes wears traditional clothing. Not out in public of course, but during ceremonies. Other than that, she keeps it simple and tries wearing modern American/Canadian clothing. Such as dark blue jeans, a red T-shirt and moccasins. She can be seen wearing a bag with traditional native American designs on it around her shoulder.

✗ P e r s o n a l i t y :: Sokanon. A woman who has had happiness and sadness. A woman who has suffered through painful wars, betrayal, and abandonment. After some time it would make a person very distraught. Before any war or contact with any other nation, Sokanon was a very cheerful woman. But after everything that has happened through her life, such as the rivalry with the Iroquois, the Beaver wars, the French Indian wars, her Indian reservation, ect. Everything is now much more difficult now that America became a country. Though Sokanon has her scars, she still enjoys her life and puts one foot forward everyday. She sometimes reminiscences when her and Francis were an alliance. An 'epic' duo they were. Sokanon in the past has shown an affectionate side to the Frenchman and even today she has feelings for him, knowing their chance of meeting again is slim. Aside from that, here is a few things you should know about Sokanon. She has somewhat of a drinking problem. (it's known that the majority natives on reservations to be heavy drinkers)

R e l a t i o n s :


Francis Bonnefoy |:iconrpnation--france:| French Republic


Francis first met Sokanon after she had been celebrating a recent victory over the Iroquois with the allied Montagnais and Etechemins. Francis and Sokanon had an alliance. And it didn't crumble after the first few years.

------

The French and Indian War;
The French and Indian War (1754–1763) is the name for the North American theater of the Seven Years' War. The French and Indian War is the name for the North American theater of the Seven Years' War. During the time the Sokanon and Francis were 'friends' she had gotten guns from him. Still, her enemy, the Iroquois had become much more powerful though. Which wasn't helpful during the war at all. And the final results of war? Well, Sokanon and Francis had lost the long battle. Arthur a nd his alliance had won. Thus making territorial changes.


Arthur Kirkland |:icontootrusting-tooearly:| United Kingdom of Great Britain

In 1760, when the British conquered Quebec, Sokanon gave up her alliance with Francis and became allies with Arthur instead. Because she and her people were allied with the British, Algonquin men fought on the British side in the American Revolutionary War. Though the British were disappointments to their the Algonquin allies. Arthur had little to no respect or kindness towards Sokanon. Therefore, his view on Sokanon and her people was that they were little but unorganized, argumentative, filthy, torture loving savages and were comfortable with wither their elimination or migrated absence.



Matthew Williams |:iconinnocent-maple:| Canada


In 1721, the Algonquins began to settle for the summer at Kahnesatake. Algonquin warriors continued to fight in alliance with France until the British conquest of Quebec in 1760 during the Seven Years' War. After Arthur took over colonial rule of Canada, their officials sought to make allies of the First Nations. Fighting on behalf of the British Crown, Sokanon took part in the Barry St. Leger campaign during the American Revolutionary War.

Loyalist settlers began encroaching on Algonquin lands shortly after the Revolution. Later in the 19th century, the lumber industry began to move up the Ottawa valley, and some Algonquins were relegated to a string of small reserves.

The serpent was not familiar with these woods. He had wondered off from his territory once again. He sighed, regretting leaving the safety of his house, "Of course I get lost...." He didn't realize anyone had seen him.
