Irma Jones
Irma Jones does not have any official duties as Deputy Leader, except to be Sami Sessersuaq's confidante, but since Irma had trained to be an accountant, it makes sense to presume that she would do the Polar Nation's accounting. Irma might also be Sami's chosen successor.
Early Life
Irma was born in Ottawa in the year 1977, making her a member of Generation X. Her father worked in government bureaucracy, and her mother became one of the first female marketing executives in her company. Irma was mostly raised by a succession of babysitters.
Irma Jones had many cats when she was little, but never more than one at the same time. A cat would die, and she would replace it. Over and over again.
She was kind of a nerd at school, having few friends, and those that were her friends betrayed her. Irma was really good at math and average at everything else. In high school, Irma refused to follow fashion or have fancy clothes, saying that it was easier to focus in drab attire.
Irma's College Days
Irma only focused on studying accounting in the University of Ottawa. She didn't join any sororities, go to any parties, or even get a job. Her parents gave Irma an allowance for all she needed.
Friendship with Sami Sessersuaq
Irma first met Sami when the latter was in college. Irma had benefited from skipping a grade in middle school, and had graduated college a year before Sami started. When Sami was looking for households to stay in and mooch off of, she heard that Irma was looking for a roommate.
Sami and Irma became fast friends. Irma could be friendly towards anyone, and Sami just needed someone to talk to. They bonded over conversation, talking about feminine issues and ways to save money.
Politics
Irma Jones's politics are unknown. Before she joined the Polar Nation, she rarely even voted.
Personality
Despite Irma's allegiance to a violent terrorist organization, she remains a very nice, friendly person in her interactions with others. Irma's loyalty is immense, which is why despite her misgivings about the cruel nature of the Polar Nation, she has very low odds of defecting. Irma places high value on friendship, such value so that it doesn't deteriorate even when common sense says that the friendship should end.
An unusual aspect of Irma Jones's personality is her fearlessness. Irma has no confirmed phobias, and despite what has been theorized, Irma doesn't stick to Sessersuaq out of fear. It has been theorized that Irma Jones admires Sami's confidence, or it may be just simple, ridiculous, undying loyalty.
Irma prefers to do things professionally, even when the things she's professional at are terrible, terrible things. Irma takes a simple pride in being good at her work. That aspect of Irma Jones's personality is pretty hard to find nowadays, and would be admirable if not for the fact that Irma puts her work ethic to use for the Polar Nation.
Irma's personality in general is of a sort that used to be dime-a-dozen before the modern era, but since authoritarianism went out of fashion in developed nations, there are less people willing to serve loyally and not complain.
Interests
Irma Jones is a cat person, although there is no evidence she currently has any pets.
