9!!Brigitte Fitzgerald (Creator/EmilyPerkins)
10[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1677651482724_4xn4bb_2_0_8.jpg]]
11 [[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]
12
13The plainer younger sister of Ginger Fitzgerald. She is devoted to finding a cure for Ginger's werewolf condition, [[spoiler: though she ends up killing her in self-defense]]. In the second movie she finds herself struggling with a werewolf curse of her own.
14
15A very similar girl also named Brigitte lived in the North American frontier in the early 1800s, and is one of the heroines in the "prequel" ''Ginger Snaps Back''.
16
17* AddledAddict: In the second film, she gets mistaken for this and sent to rehab, though what she's actually going through is arguably even worse.
18%%* BadassAdorable
19* BadassBoast
20-->'''Ginger:''' You can't fight what's in us, B.\
21'''Brigitte:''' I'm not like you, Ginger; I am stronger.\
22'''Ginger:''' Funny, that's not how I remember the last fifteen years of your life.\
23'''Brigitte:''' That's how I remember [[spoiler: the last fifteen ''minutes'' of yours]].
24* BrainyBrunette: Has shown to be very clever and resourceful throughout the first two movies.
25* ChosenOne: In ''The Beginning''. According to the Seer, it's up to her to decide whether to kill Ginger and sever the werewolf bloodline, or let Ginger kill her and allow the curse to plague the New World forever. [[spoiler:Brigitte rejects both options, kills the Hunter instead and becomes a werewolf along with Ginger.]]
26* CoolBigSis: Has one in Ginger, and grows into one for Ghost. [[spoiler:Neither relationship ends well for her.]]
27* CreepyLonerGirl: An awkward, gloomy, introverted loner whose whole world is her sister and their shared fascination with death. She also has [[LooksLikeCesare the appearance down]].
28* EveryoneCanSeeIt: With Sam, with everyone thinking they are a couple. Both Trina and Ginger lampshade this.
29* FinalGirl: She survives the events of the first film and outlives every other major teenage character. [[HappyEndingOverride In the second film, however]], it turns out that [[spoiler: the cure for her lycanthropy was only temporary, and by the end she fully succumbs to it while TheBadGuyWins]].
30* GradeSkipper: Mentioned in an offhand line by Ginger in the first film, presumably to explain why the two are in the same grade despite Brigitte being younger.
31* GreenEyedMonster: Described as this by Ginger during an argument, but while she owns up to having always wanted to be her sister, it's less clear if her disapproval of Ginger throwing herself into social situations is due to jealousy (whether having ever craved the life and attention Ginger has started to enjoy, or possessiveness over her precious sister) or a genuine disgust at Ginger for embracing normalcy, which she sneers at. By the time this argument rolls around, her concern is more that Ginger has become a werewolf and is doing everything she can to feel normal.
32* [[IHateYouVampireDad I Hate You Werewolf Sister]]: {{Averted|Trope}}. Brigitte loves Ginger more than anyone else, even after [[spoiler:she murders three people and is indirectly responsible for the deaths of two others]].
33* LooksLikeCesare: Her unkempt black hair and deep eye bags are two of her most distinctive features, along with her [[PerpetualFrowner perpetual scowl]].
34* MoralityPet: Even at her worst, Ginger genuinely loves Brigitte, even if that loves manifests rather... violently.
35* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
36** After [[spoiler: Ginger's death.]]
37** To a lesser extent [[spoiler: Tyler's death]] in the second movie.
38* NightmareFetishist: Initially, at least. She quickly learns that death and the macabre aren't as great as she once thought.
39* PerpetualFrowner: She cracks a smile seven times in the entire trilogy, four of them being in the first film. One of these times (in the second film) she was forced to do it.
40* SheCleansUpNicely: In ''Ginger Snaps 2''. This is partially because Brigitte had hit puberty by the beginning of the movie, but a lot of it also has to do with Emily Perkins persuading the director to have her wear tighter clothes and makeup while filming.
41* ShipTease: With Sam in the first film. Ginger and Trina seem to notice this and are ''not'' amused by this. Likewise, Sam insists he doesn't think of her "like that", to which Brigitte rolls her eyes. It should be noted that in an early script draft, they were more expressly love interests.
42* ShrinkingViolet: Brigitte is very shy, which becomes even more obvious after Ginger starts being more outgoing.
43* WhenSheSmiles: They are fleeting, but she cracks a smile four times in the first movie.
44%%* TookALevelInBadass: In the second movie.
45
46!!Ginger Fitzgerald (Creator/KatharineIsabelle)
47[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1677649691145.jpg]]
48 [[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]
49
50Brigitte's older sister and best friend. She is obsessed with death and the macabre, and has over the years more or less shaped Brigitte into becoming like her. After being bitten by a werewolf in the woods the night she gets her first period, Ginger finds her body changing, and becomes sexier, more outgoing, and more violent.
51
52A very similar girl also named Ginger lived in the North American frontier in the early 1800s, and is one of the heroines in the "prequel" ''Ginger Snaps Back''.
53
54* AlphaBitch: Starts to turn into one when she gets bitten.
55* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:Her death is treated as a tragedy, being Brigitte's best friend growing up and leaving Brigitte feeling lost at not only her sister's death, but their relationship falling apart. Adding to that, it seemed Ginger was started to have a HeelRealization before her final transformation, being willing to go with Brigitte to be cured, and being afraid as she can feel the change coming. The first film ends with Brigitte listening to Ginger's brathing as the latter bleeds out, and the second film has Brigitte saying she misses Ginger every day.]]
56* AmbiguouslyBi: Ends up dating and having sex with Jason, but some of her interactions with female characters come off as a little suggestive. When Brigitte asks her if she's going to eat Trina, Ginger dismisses it by saying it would be like having sex with her. This is taken to an incestous extreme, as she is not only very close to Briggite, but when she tries to pull a WeCanRuleTogether with her, uses sexually suggestive language, and goes as far as to describe her [[DrunkOnTheDarkside emotional state]] with masturbatory language and imagery.
57* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Even before transforming, she's a pretty big jerk to her parents, especially her mother.
58* DrunkOnTheDarkside: At her early stages of the transformation.
59* ExtremeMeleeRevenge: Once she finally has enough of Trina's shit, she breaks her nose. During her transformation, she develops a nasty habit of mauling people.
60* FemaleMisogynist: Ginger ''hates'' things she deems to be feminine or 'girly', and the only other girl who she can stand to be around is Brigitte.
61* FieryRedhead: Ginger has red hair and a quick, hot temper, especially where [[BigBrotherInstinct her sister Brigitte]] is concerned.
62* FullyEmbracedFiend: In the final stages of her transformation, no longer viewing lycanthropy as a curse but a wonderful, empowering thing she wants to share with her sister.
63* HeelFaceDoorSlam: Seems to undergo one after Brigitte infects herself, and seems to be willing to take the cure with her before getting scared when she feels the change coming. Then Sam knocks her out and she transforms while unconscious. What's left is a ravenous werewolf.
64* MySisterIsOffLimits: She is super protective of Brigitte, especially after she gets bitten, [[spoiler: to the point of killing people that look at her little sister funny.]]
65* MysticalWhiteHair: As her werewolf transformation progresses, her hair becomes white.
66* NightmareFetishist: Has a perverse fascination with gore and death from the get-go that she shares with Brigitte.
67* PetTheDog: In the prequel, Ginger feels sympathy towards [[CreepyChild Geoffrey]], a child who's mother was killed by the werewolf who hit him. She thinks that killing him (the werewolf who bit her) will cure herself but actually hesitates when given the opportunity, and even comforts him when he's crying at his mother's grave.
68* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Creator/KatharineIsabelle went red-haired for the role, and her eyes are naturally green. She is the title character too.
69* TookALevelInBadass: Shortly after she was bitten, becomes much more violent and assertive as her change gets closer and closer.
70** In the prequel, when she attacks the fort with several other werewolves just to save Brigitte, certainly counts.
71* TookALevelInKindness: In the prequel, she is far nicer to her sister and a lot more reluctant/fearful of her transformation, frightened that she might put Brigitte in danger.
72* WeCanRuleTogether: Tries to get Brigitte to turn into a werewolf and become a pack.
73* WouldntHurtAChild: In the third film, she believes she has to kill [[CreepyChild Geoffrey]] to cure herself of lycanthropy. Besides the fact it wouldn't work, when Ginger corners Geoffrey, she freezes before she could do anything due to feeling sympathy for the boy.

77[[folder:Characters in ''Ginger Snaps'']]
78!!Sam (Kris Lemche)
79A drug dealer who hangs around Brigitte and Ginger's high school. He helps Brigitte develop a cure for Ginger.
80
81* TheAce: He is respected by the students at the high school. Probably because of his drug supply, but still...
82* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Trina clealry has a crush on Sam, not that he returns these feelings.
83* BrainyBrunette: Is shown to be a smart guy, using his knowledge of plants and werewolf lore into helping Brigitte try to find a cure for Ginger. This is especially interesting seeing as he and Brigitte just found out that werewolves exist.
84%%* DeadpanSnarker
85* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Trina and Ginger think that Sam and Brigitte have a crush on each other.
86* GenreSavvy: He and Brigitte almost immediately put together what is going on shortly after the beasts death, and the first thing they do is throw "hollywood rules" out the window.
87* SacrificialLion: Maybe. Some fans speculate he is [[spoiler: the mystery wolf in the second film]], there is no WordOfGod on that.
88* ShipTease: With Brigitte. They get particularly close, and other characters seem to think there is something between them. Ginger and Trina aren't too happy about this, and Sam insists to Brigitte he doesn't think of her like that.
89
90!!Jason [=McCardy=] (Jesse Moss)
91Ginger's "boyfriend", a stereotypical cocky teenage boy who was infected through unprotected sex with Ginger. He is cured, [[spoiler:but it turns out to be just temporary in the second movie. Maybe.]]
92
93* AllMenArePerverts: It's blatantly obvious from the word go that his intent to date Ginger amounts to scoring with her.
94* BodyHorror: This ''is'' a werewolf movie, but we don't see how far he transforms.
95* DoggedNiceGuy: He acts like one to Ginger.
96* EveryoneHasStandards: He thinks what he's going through is fucked up, especially when he doesn't know what's happening to him. Particularly when he kills his own dog.
97* EvilIsHammy: Not so much evil as it is "{{Jerkass}} DrunkOnTheDarkSide" but he really starts to ham it up towards the full moon, particlally when Brigitte injects him.
98* {{Jerkass}}: He loudly catcalls Ginger, even when she tells him to fuck off, and later boasts about having slept with her.
99* LockedOutOfTheLoop: He knows something is going on, but doesn't quite get the full picture; that werewolves exist and are in his town. As far as he knows, the Beast of Bailey Downs is just a mad dog, and his symptoms of lycanthropy are part of an STD. By the end of the movie, he never learns the truth.
100* NightmareFetishist: Implied. At the beginning he seems really into Ginger and Brigitte's "art projects" (them taking morbid photos of their "deaths"), even asking to see them again. It's also suggested to be part of why he's attracted to Ginger.
101* PetTheDog: Literally. When the students are buying drugs from Sam, Jason briefly stops to pet Trina's dog.
102* WhatHaveIBecome: His reaction when he realizes there's something wrong with him. He's completly out of the loop in regards to the werewolves and is scared and confused about what's happening to him. As far as he can tell, what's happening to his body is just from a bizarre STD.
103* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler: Given the reveal that Monkshood isn't a real cure, FridgeHorror dictates that he became a werewolf himself. Some speculate he's the male werewolf in the second movie, but WordOfGod suggests that's not the case.]]
104* WouldHurtAChild: He nearly does this before [[spoiler: Brigitte injects him with Monkshood]].
105** WouldHitAGirl: He prepares to attack Brigitte when she comes to the kids rescue.
106
107!!Trina Sinclair (Danielle Hampton)
108Ginger and Brigitte's constant bully, who, despite her rude behavior, is very popular among the other students of Bailey Downs High.
109
110* AlphaBitch: Ironically, she is not a werewolf.
111* BreakTheHaughty: Appears throughout as a typical AlphaBitch character, and over the movie gets beaten up by Ginger, has her advances rejected by Sam, is under the impression Sam and Brigitte are an item, and finally her dog goes missing. When she confronts Brigitte at her house, she is near tears, and breaks down crying when Ginger attacks her again.
112* TheBully: Towards the sisters, but mostly Brigitte. This of course incurs the wrath of Ginger.
113* CrazyJealousGuy: She has this attitude towards Brigitte when she thinks she and Sam are a thing.
114* DeathByFallingOver: She slips in a puddle of spilled milk and brains herself on the countertop.
115* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: She never got punished by the teachers for bullying the Fitzgerald sisters. Ginger takes matters into her own hands.
116* MissingWhiteWomanSyndrome: [[spoiler: After her death.]]
117* PetTheDog: Literally, her dog is pretty much the only thing she's seen caring about. When her dog goes missing, she's genuinely distressed.
118
119!!Pamela Fitzgerald (Creator/MimiRogers)
120Ginger and Brigitte's overly perky mother. She mistakes Ginger's transformations for normal changes during puberty. She's also a little bit crazy, to the point where she [[spoiler: finds Trina's dead body, and even plans on burning down their house and run away with them.]]
121
122* AdultsAreUseless: ZigZagged. She doesn't really understand her daughters, but [[spoiler:upon discovering Trina's body, comes up with a plan to runaway with her daughters, and shows she clearly wants to help them. In a deleted scene, she takes the fall for Trina's death to cover for her daughters.]]
123* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Ginger views her as this. Considering the woman can't stop saying how delighted she is that Ginger's started getting her period, it's hard to blame her.
124* MamaBear: Willing to break the law to ensure her daughters safety. In one of the deleted scenes, she [[spoiler: turns herself in as the killer of Trina Sinclair so that her daughters won't get arrested.]]
125* ParentsAsPeople: She's not very useful and clearly doesn't understand her daughters at all, but she does love them a lot, [[spoiler:to the point of being willing to fake their own deaths and go on the run with them so they won't have to go to jail.]]
126* StepfordSmiler: Keeps an overly cherry and preppy demeanor, in contrast to Ginger and Brigitte's more sullen and cynical personalities. [[spoiler:Towards the end, she shows her more vulnerable side to Brigitte, talking about how much she cares for her daughters, despite not understanding them.]]
127
128!!Henry Fitzgerald (John Bourgeois)
129The sisters' father. He really isn't all that involved in their lives, although he seems to notice that what's happening to his daughters isn't normal.
130
131* AdultsAreUseless: At the very least, he's a passive presence in his daughters' lives, and doesn't do anything active in the movie.
132* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: Downplayed, but seems so used to his daughters' eccentricities that when something is going on with Ginger he barely questions it. Notably, when Brigitte and Ginger fake a photo shoot as part hiding Trina's body, Henry tells them not to do their death projects in the house - in the same manner a parent would scold their kid for playing music too loud.
133* DeadpanSnarker: Sarcastically questions his wife when he notices the girls are suddenly interested in what she has to say.
134%%* HenpeckedHusband
135* WeirdnessCensor: He does notice something is going on with Ginger, but having raised the girls, he thinks what's happening is normal (for them at least).
136
137!!Mr. Wayne (Creator/PeterKeleghan)
138The school's guidance councilor. He is confused by the Ginger and Brigitte's antics, and like the others don't understand them. [[spoiler: He is Ginger's first human victim not counting Trina.]]
139
140%%* OnlySaneMan
141* TheScapegoat: In a deleted scene, the Fitzgerald sisters get out of trouble when they threaten to accuse him of molesting Ginger.
142
143!!The Beast of Bailey Downs
144The werewolf that terrorized Bailey Downs before Ginger. He was the one that bit her, and was run over by Sam shortly after. Not much is known about him, but it's sometimes hinted in the prequel and sequel that Bailey Downs is home to many, many werewolves.
145
146* ChunkySalsaRule: Blasted by a speeding van.
147%%* TheDreaded
148%%* WeHardlyKnewYe

151
152[[folder:Characters in ''Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed'']]
153!!Ghost (Creator/TatianaMaslany)
154An odd little girl Brigitte befriends in the second movie. She lives in a rehab clinic/hospital with her grandmother, who is a patient. She finds out Brigitte is a werewolf and tries to help her out. She even helps her escape the clinic. [[spoiler: It also turns out she put her grandmother in the hospital in the first place, and is planning to use Brigitte to kill her "enemies"]].
155
156* BadassAdorable: Ghost is an adorable little girl who's capable of incredible cruelty.
157* BigBad: [[spoiler:Of the second movie. She is the final antagonist of the movie, and throughout the movie has been planning to use Brigitte to kill people she doesn't like.]]
158%%* CloudCuckoolander
159%%* CreepyChild
160* EnemyMine: [[spoiler:Even after her true nature is revealed, she, Brigitte and Alice still fight the werewolf stalking Brigitte.]]
161* KarmaHoudini: For now, but it doesn't look like another movie is being made anytime soon.
162* KidWithTheLeash: At the end, [[spoiler:she controls a fully transformed Brigitte as her attack dog to unleash on her enemies]].
163* ReplacementGoldfish: Brigitte starts to treat her like the sister she lost.
164* TheSociopath: Manipulative, displays zero empathy...yep.
165* TroublingUnchildLikeBehavior: Throughout the movie, she has an irrational obsession with comics, fantasy, and has a tendency to narrate to herself, out loud. [[spoiler: And that was all before we find out she tried to burn her grandmother alive and is planing on feeding her to a werewolf.]]
166* TheUnfought: [[spoiler:Somewhat {{Averted}}, as she does help fight the werewolf during the climax, but Brigitte's attempt to confront her was cut short by the werewolves attack.]]
167* WoundedGazelleGambit: Pulls this one near the end of the second movie.
168
169!!Tyler (Creator/{{Eric Johnson|Actor}})
170A corrupt worker at the rehab clinic. He sells the patients drugs in exchange for sex. He tries to pull this stunt on Brigitte, but naturally it doesn't work. On the other hand, he behaves altruistically towards Brigitte and Ghost on many occasions, so it's hard to judge him. [[spoiler: He was killed by the mysterious male werewolf, shortly after being framed of rape by Ghost.]]
171
172* AffablyEvil: He sells drugs to the patients in exchange for sexual favors, but he gets legitimately concerned for Brigitte when her lycanthropy begins to advance and seems to have a legitimate and platonic affection for Ghost.
173* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Kind of subverted; he was an asshole, but he is killed for the wrong reason, and when he gets killed he was starting to lighten up.]]
174* EvilCounterpart: In comparison, he is a darker meaner version of Sam. Adding to irony, Sam's a drug dealer and Tyler works for a rehab place (but deals drugs as too-in fact, to patients).
175%%* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor
176%%* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Zig-Zags between this and JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
177* ReallyGetsAround: At the expense of the rehabilitation progress of the clinic patients. He gives them drugs in return for sex.
178
179!!Alice Severson (Janet Kiddler)
180The director of the rehab clinic Brigitte was placed in. She doesn't know that much about her, but is concerned that Brigitte is poisoning herself due to her Monkshood addiction.
181
182* BadassNormal: As seen at the climax, she manages to hold her own against the werewolf.
183* TheDreaded: Justified, she is a rehab director, and almost all the girls in the clinic are still taking drugs. They all fear her wrath if found out.
184* DeadpanSnarker: How she deals with the difficulty of her job
185
186!!Unknown Werewolf
187A male werewolf that stalks Brigitte throughout the movie. He intends to mate with her and really doesn't take no for an answer. His true identity is never revealed.
188
189* TheDeterminator: Will stalk Brigitte anywhere, and kill anyone who tries to help her.
190%%* FinalBoss
191* TheHeavy: He's the one who Brigitte is on the run from throughout the movie and an enemy of the BigBad ([[spoiler:Ghost]]).
192* StalkerWithACrush: Towards Brigitte. He wants to mate with her and is relentless and persistent in pursuing her.
193* TheUnreveal: His human self. Fans speculate he is [[spoiler: Jason]], but WordOfGod says that interpretation wasn't intended. Some fans also speculate he is [[spoiler: a surviving Sam]]; there is no WordOfGod on that.
194[[/folder]]
195
196[[folder:Characters in ''Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning'']]
197
198!!The Hunter (Creator/NathanielArcand)
199An aboriginal werewolf hunter in Fort Bailey. He is determined to make sure that Ginger and Brigitte pull through to fulfill a prophecy he heard as a boy.
200
201* BadassNative: He fights and kills large amounts of werewolves single-handedly both inside and outside the fort.
202* BecauseDestinySaysSo: A firm believer in the Red and the Black prophecy, of which one sister will kill the other. That is his primary motivation for protecting the sisters (primarily Brigtte).
203* BigDamnHeroes: He shoots a werewolf Jean-Pierre, who's attacking the sisters through the eye.
204* TheDeterminator: Is steadfast in his belief of fulfilling the Red and the Black prophecy, come Hell or high water.
205* MrFanservice: Gets a shirtless scene.
206* NotSoStoic: The look on his face when [[spoiler: Brigitte stabs him]] says it all.
207* ShipTease: With ''both'' sisters.
208* YouCantFightFate: Strongly believes this, [[spoiler: but he is killed instead of Ginger.]]
209
210!!Wallace Rowlands (Tom [=McCamus=])
211The leader of Fort Bailey, which is constantly under siege of werewolves. One of them kills his wife and infects his son, whom he keeps hidden in the fort.
212
213* BigGood: The closest the film has to this as the leader of Fort Bailey, who offers protection to the Fitzgerald sisters. Not that he makes the right decisions throughout the film.
214* DespairEventHorizon: Goes through this over the movie. Being forced to kill his son is implied to be the reason he commits suicide at the end.
215* DrivenToSuicide: Kills himself at the end of the film as Fort Bailey burns.
216* JerkAss: Less so than the Reverend or Sergeant James, but on balance he probably falls into this trope
217* PapaWolf: Pardoning the obvious werewolf pun, is fiercely protective of his son.
218* PetTheDog: Does this with his son, Brigitte and Ginger.
219* WildCard: It's hard to tell who he'll side with at what given point in the movie. He'll help the sisters one moment and refuse to punish Gilbert for locking them in the shed the next, etc.
220
221!!Reverend Gilbert (Creator/HughDillon)
222The resident preacher at Fort Bailey, a fanatical religious zealot. He is distrustful of the sisters, seeing them as evil. His paranoia is intensified by the constant werewolf attacks on the fort.
223
224* BadBoss: Resorts to having to hold one of his men at gunpoint to try to test Ginger's blood.
225* BigBadDuumvirate: Forms one with Jame near the end of the film, effectively taking control of Fort Bailey to kill the Fitzgerald sisters.
226* DueToTheDead: First seen reading his bible over the forts cemetery.
227* TheFundamentalist: As if being a SinisterMinister wasn't enough, he is described as being twisted deadly by scripture, interlaces his religion in his more villainous moments, especially when he blames the aboriginal "heathens" for the werewolf attacks and describes the Fitzgerald sisters and his implied lust for them as temptations that he seeks to destroy.
228* JerkAss: Almost immediately wants to cast out the Fitzgerald sisters out of paranoia, expresses racism towards Wallace in regards to his wife, and in a number of his sermons, blames Wallace's marriage and other such unions for bringing lycanthropy into all of them in the first place.
229* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler: Attempts to burn Brigitte alive, gets burned alive himself.]]
230* KickTheDog: Locks the sisters in a house with a werewolf on the loose, for no discernible reason other than they are outsiders and possibly to distract the monster. Keep in mind, this is before he or anyone knew or had any idea that Ginger was bitten.
231* KillItWithFire: Tries to do this to Brigitte. [[spoiler: It's also what killed him.]]
232* KnightTemplar: His paranoia drives him to protect Fort Bailey from all outsiders, as well as blaming the curse on Wallace's marriage to a native woman, and denounces the sisters as witches.
233* {{Lust}}: He's at least subtle about it for the most part, but one of the men at the Fort warns Ginger that he has taken as fancy to her. Also throughout the film, he describes the sisters as "temptations". Unlike most examples of this trope, he tries to deal with these temptations by killing them.
234* NeverMyFault: A racial example. He claims that it is the fault of the Native Americans that their being plagued by werewolves when the stories of both the hunter and Claude make it clear that the werewolves are something that the Europeans brought to the area.
235* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Repeatedly makes it clear that he blames the werewolf curse on Fort Bailey on white men marrying and having children with aboriginals. He constantly refers to them as savages and heathens and interlaces this in nearly all his sermons.
236* SinisterMinister: Is the Reverend of Fort Bailey and one of the main antagonists of the film.
237* VillainousBreakdown: Has one near the end of the movie. As he prepares to burn Brigitte alive, he viciously denounces her as a witch and disciple of the Devil, as well lashing out at Wallace.
238* VillainousValor: He is seen out in the thick of the fight, shooting his rifle the first time the werewolves attack the fort.
239* WouldHurtAChild: Is part of the group that hunts down and prepares to kill Geoffry.
240
241!!James (Creator/JRBourne)
242A veteran of the War of 1812, and the Sergeant Major of Fort Bailey. He is less paranoid about the sisters, but is enough of a jerk that he attacks them anyway, simply for being out at night. That's far from the worst of it.
243
244* AttemptedRape: When he and the reverend abduct Ginger to test her blood, James takes this as an opprotunity to try to force himself onto Brigitte before Wallace intervenes.
245* BadBoss: Kills one of his men during a werewolf attack and describes how he sees them as expendable, especially if they are not white.
246* BigBadDuumvirate: With the reverend. While Wallace is technically the one running the joint, by the climax of the film the two of them effectively take over Fort Bailey in order to kill the Fitzgerald sisters.
247* DeadpanSnarker:
248--> '''Reverend Gilbert''': He's turned.
249--> '''James''': Turned ugly.
250* DisproportionateRetribution: While his throwing Milo out was mostly for him being mixed race and his father no longer there to protect him, it also stemmed from him getting Wallace to stop his AttemptedRape of Brigitte.
251* HilariousInHindsight: JR Bourne now stars as a werewolf hunter in ''Series/TeenWolf''.
252* {{Jerkass}}: If not for the Reverend, he would easily be the most assholish character in the movie. He's abrasive, has a bad sense of humor, gets a kick out of beating Ginger and Geoffrey, callously leaves one of his men to die, and on top of all that he's racist.
253* KickTheDog: You'd almost think this is a hobby of his as he gives a toast to the Hunter who has been protecting him, describing how he used aboriginals in his unit as cannon fodder; tries to beat the sisters just for being out at night; attempts to force himself onto Brigitte; hunts down and beat Geoffry; and throws the mixed race Milo out to die the werewolf infested forests when his father dies.
254* SociopathicSoldier: If his constant {{Jerkass}} and KickTheDog behavior weren't enough, there's him saying how he saw the First Nations in his unit as expendable, and during his AttemptedRape on Brigitte, he ''forces her to bite his hand so hard it draws blood and smears it on her face'' as a way of getting off.
255* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Is openly hostile toward First Nations. He describes how he used aboriginals in his unit as CannonFodder, refuses to leave the Fort if it meant being guided by a "savage" and throws out Milo upon his father's death simply because he is mixed race.
256* WouldHurtAChild: Physically beats Geoffrey when he's captured and would have killed him had Wallace not done the deed.
257* WouldHitAGirl: Has no problem physically beating Ginger when given the opportunity to fight her. He's actually enthusiastic about it.
258
259!!Geffory Rowlands (Stevie Mitchell)
260Wallace's son, who was bitten by werewolf that killed his mother. To avoid being killed, Wallace hides him in his house.
261
262* CreepyChild: The result of being kept in an isolated room and going through a werewolf transformation. Doesn't stop him from being sympathetic though.
263* MercyKill: Is shot and killed by his father before Gilbert, James or their men could take the first shot.
264* MoralityPet: To his father naturally, but he also garners sympathy from Ginger, who openly emphasizes with him over his mother and even tries to comfort him at his mother's grave.
265* PetTheDog: Gets this treatment from both Wallace and Ginger.
266
267!!Doc Murphy (Creator/MatthewWalker)
268The oldest man in the fort, a doctor who inspects people for sings of infection.
269* AwesomeByAnalysis: He recognizes that one of the werewolves is Jean-Pierre due to noticing a tattoo on it.
270* CombatMedic: He's a doctor and a fighter.
271* CoolOldGuy: An affable man with a steady head and the right mixture of firmness and sympathy as he holds Finn at gunpoint and tests him for infection.
272* FrontierDoctor: He's a physician at an isolated fort who patches up Bridgette's hurt foot and tests people for signs of werewolf infection by seeing how they react to leeches.
273* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: A level-headed, bespectacled man.
274
275!! Claude (David La Haye)
276A French trapper and sometimes crony of James. He marches a guard post on the walls. His brother Jean-Pierre is captain of the overdue supply barge.
277* BigBrotherInstinct: He talks about how, after his grandfather told them a story about werewolves, Jean-Pierre promised to save him from them if it came to that.
278* ChekhovsLecture: His story contains a tidbit about how you can be cured of lycanthropy by personally killing the werewolf that bit you, something the sisters briefly try to do.
279* DecapitationPresentation: Puts Jean-Pierre's werewolf head on a stake to deter the other werewolves.
280* FrenchJerk: Not at first, but he gets a bit more hostile towards the sisters later on and helps throw Milo out of the fort, and he's the only remaining French trapper.
281* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Unlike most of the others he's clean shaven and has shoulder length hair.
282* ShutUpHannibal: Snaps at Gilbert to stop during one of his creepy sermons.
283* ThisCannotBe: He's initially in denial that Jean-Pierre has been turned into a werewolf and been killed.
284
285!! Seamus (Adrien Dorval)
286A husky, middle aged trapper and the father of Milo.
287* AwesomeByAnalysis: Calmly identifies a bone the Hunter throws on the table as a wolf jaw and is able to tell the size of it. He's also aware of how twisted Gilbert is and unafraid to say so from the start, and accurately warns the sisters they should be wary of him.
288* TheBigGuy: He's the huskiest of the fort dwellers.
289* CuriosityKilledTheCast: He goes wandering after a noise in the dark (although to be fair, he was unaware that anyone who had been bitten was still alive).
290* DueToTheDead: He's seen making grave crosses for men killed by the werewolves.
291* NiceGuy: He's respectful to both the sisters and The Hunter.
292* PapaWolf: He isn't afraid to manhandle James for his poor treatment of Milo (and The Hunter).
293* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After discovering that Jean-Pierre was made a werewolf and won't be bringing back supplies and reinforcements, Seamus wants to abandon the fort, which Rowlands refuses to allow.
294
295!! Milo (Fabian Bird)
296Seamus's half-Cree son.
297* TheBabyOfTheBunch: He's only a little older than Geoffery.
298* BigDamnHeroes: He gets Rowlands to stop James rape attempt.
299* DueToTheDead: He helps dig graves for [[spoiler:Finn and Owen]].
300* HalfBreedDiscrimination: Milo himself seems fine with it but James and Gilbert throw it at him a lot.
301* HeroWorshipper: An extended version of the dinner scene shows that he's one to The Hunter, asking to hold his tomahawk.
302* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He follows his maternal roots of wearing his hair long and has a somewhat delicate face.
303* NativeGuide: Briefly fills this role, taking the Sisters to the Hunter's cave when their all thrown out to the fort.
304
305!! Cormac (David Macinnes)
306A man often seen on sentry duty.
307* GateGuardian: He's positioned at the forts gate, examining anyone outside through the peephole before deciding if they should come in.
308* NeverBareheaded: His knit cap only comes off while he's running and stumbling during a chase.
309* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: James wastes no time in slapping and berating him for letting the sisters inside, and they don't seem to appreciate his action too much later on.
310* OhCrap" Gapes and runs after Ginger cuts James throat and open the gate for the entire pack of the werewolves.
311* SmallRoleBigImpact: He doesn't get much focus (and is listed third to last in the credits) but he's the one who lets the sisters into the fort in the first place, on his own judgment (something which he is instantly criticized for by some of the others).
312* WhatTheHellHero: He's upset that Rowlands kept Geoffery alive and how it got [[spoiler:Seamus]] killed.
313* WouldHitAGirl: Downplayed. He knocks down Ginger with his rifle butt when she returns to the fort, but she's known to be infected at that point and he can't bring himself to actually shoot her even as she's opening the gates to let in the werewolves.
314
315!! Finn [=McIntyre=] (Creator/BrendanFletcher)
316A member of the fort's company who helps the sisters get settled.
317* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: A soft-spoken, somewhat meek guy who grabs [[RedShirt Owen]] when the werewolves are dragging him out of the fort and manages to hang onto Owen for several seconds in a failed attempt to save him, despite the strength of the werewolves and the great risk entailed.
318* MrExposition: He shows the sisters around and tells them about Geoffrey and his mother.
319* NervousWreck: He's fairly timid.
320* ZombieInfectee: He's bitten by a werewolf and tries to kill Murphy's leeches in a failed attempt to keep this from being found out.
