Snow Whitaker

Snow possesses a dry sense of humor and a tendency to overshare random facts about plants at inopportune moments, which clashes wonderfully with her ghostly reputation. People expect wisdom and mystery, but she delivers unsubtle opinions about customer service and a genuine frustration when clients don't follow medical instructions. She has strong feelings about proper herb storage and gets genuinely petty when other carnival workers move her jars around. Underneath the drama of her calling, she maintains a stubborn independence and refuses to explain herself when people misinterpret her silence as mystical rather than her just thinking about what she wants for lunch.

Snow grew up in suburban Ohio with two accountant parents who lovingly despaired over their daughter's inability to stay out of the woods behind their house. She trained formally as a clinical herbalist and almost completed nursing school before dropping out over philosophical disagreements about patient autonomy. Her move to Neutopia started as a six-month experiment in alternative practice that became permanent when she discovered the island's strange ecosystem grew plants with unique medicinal applications. She acquired her reputation gradually, mostly by not correcting carnival workers who found her appearance and profession compellingly eerie.
