Chief Mangau is a figure of authority, guidance and wise words. His father, the Supreme Chief has given him the mission of restoring the spirit of peace in America. Before setting out, Chief warns the other men not to be distracted by pretty girls. But he's not a spoilsport: once their journey begins, he reveals a cheeky grin, a warm laugh and a curiosity about the new world around him. At 65 years old, he's the oldest of the group.


Sam is the Medicine Man, to whom the community comes with everything from fevers to broken bones. He also understands the spirits and age-old traditions of Tanna better than anyone else, and these traditions inform the ways he views America.


Namus is the translator for the group. He's from Tanna, but has been to school and speaks English well. At 27 years old, he's the youngest of the group, and a bit savvier about the outside world than the others.
