  • Magnificent Bitch: Amber Roos was a 6-year-old girl when the US invaded Canada and destroyed her hometown of Ottawa, killing her parents in the process. With the help of various kind strangers, Amber was able to flee to the Northwest Territories and grew up to be a hunter who lived off the land. At 18, she joins up with a Canadian rebel group, the Two Fours, and kills a US soldier to prove her loyalty. After Vic, the leader of the Two Fours is captured and tortured until she reveals the location of their base, American forces attack the giant mine the Two Fours were hold up in. Defeating the American forces, Amber discovers the mine contains arsenic and will poison a nearby lake if destroyed. Knowing the US forces invaded Canada to take its freshwater, Amber hijacks an American military jet and uses it to get aboard the main American airship. Amber reveals to the main American administrator that she is wearing a suicide vest and is holding a dead man trigger. Amber sees through the American administrator's attempts to dissuade her and sets off the bomb, causing the airship to crash into the mine.
  • Moral Event Horizon: The American administrator invoking Vic's history of sexual abuse to break her after simulated torture failed. For what it's worth, she at least looked remorseful.
