Meghan Connor Character Analysis

Meghan is a woman who seeks refuge on the reserve along with her husband, Brad, Alex Richer, and Mark Phillips (whom Scott kills when they first arrive). Brad joins forces with Scott, so Meghan ends up living under Scott’s authority. Together, the men subjugate Meghan, forcing her to hunt even though she doesn’t know how to and punishing her when she fails to deliver food to Scott. Meghan grows thinner, weaker, and more hateful of Scott and Brad as the winter progresses, ultimately prompting her to turn on them and shoot Scott in the back, killing him.
