Permafrost Characters
2 entries
Confirmed figures from the game's official premise and reported survival systems. Exact progression roles require additional in-game verification.
Read each entry before a run
Every characters card links to a dedicated page with its summary, attributes, and any acquisition note we can currently support. Use those pages to compare functions and risks instead of relying on a name alone.
How attributes are handled
Attributes are limited to what the available source describes. Values that depend on exact patch testing are marked as reported or left out. That keeps the database useful without inventing recipes, spawn tables, or combat numbers.
Rook
The playable engineer drawn into the frozen world by a radio signal.
Rook is the player character: an engineer navigating a near-future Earth after catastrophes culminate in the shattering of the moon. The character's engineering background is central to repurposing abandoned technology and restoring survival infrastructure.
