Double Strike Woman
Yellow Kidney and Heavy Shield Woman’s son and younger brother to Red Paint and Good Young Man. Fools Crow saves One Spot’s life when he is mauled by a rabid wolf, and he again escapes the Shadowland when he survives the white-scabs disease. One Spot is among those in the procession at the end of the novel when the Pikunis leave their ancestral lands and head north to evade the blue-coat seizers.
