Snusmumrikken
Snufkin is a harmonica playing free spirit, who loves fishing and hiking. His worldly belongings travel with him in his backpack, and he values the simple life. Freedom is very important to Snufkin, and he prefers doing things his own way. The wise and reflective Snufkin is very popular and admired in Moominvalley, especially among the tiniest and more fearful creatures. Each year around November, Snufkin leaves to travel south, and his friend Moomintroll stays behind and waits for his return. Mymble and Little My are Snufkin’s half sisters. Even though Snufkin enjoys his time alone, he doesn’t avoid the company of others. Snufkin has a green coat and a slouch hat. He first appeared in Tove Jansson’s novel Comet in Moominland.
Shadow
Samu is a small and dark creature from Moominvalley who often follows Moomintroll. Samu is a quiet fellow who rarely speaks. In appearance, Samu somewhat resembles Sniff but is completely black and considerably smaller. The white-cheeked version of Samu is his cousin. He leaves the comics instead of Samu because he says he is getting married.
Tufsla og Vifsla
Thingumy and Bob are inseparable, and an interesting duo. They almost always walk hand-in-hand, and their dialect is so bizarre that in the beginning the only one able to understand them was Hemulen. Being very tiny, Thingumy and Bob usually spend their time in narrow and protected places. They are friendly, but not too open towards others. They like to own things and they like to take possession of other people’s valuables. Thingumy and Bob are identical, but Thingumy wears a red cap. They also carry a suitcase with them. Thingumy and Bob were first met in Tove Jansson's novel Finn Family Moomintroll.
