Stamfaren
The Moomins’ Ancestor is a hairy, grey little troll. An Ancestor has a tail and a big snout like the Moomins, but it is covered in long hair. A peculiar thing about Ancestors is that they don’t speak or eat at all. The Ancestors lived behind the tile stove. There is not very much knowledge on the mystical Ancestors, but the first time they appeared was in Tove Jansson’s novel Moominland Midwinter.
