OC Character Profiles
Author's Notes: Just some profiles for those who are curious.
Summary: Alaska: The Last Frontier. "Steward's Icebox", the others mocked. America stared at the small, pale child in front of him. "Hello." The America greeted the boy. "Hello." The territory whispered. The snow encircling the two swirled around them. A short one-shot based loosely on the Alaska Purchase. Warning: Nation and human names will both be used.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything except my OC, Alaska and Virginia.
