Tuktareva Olga

Tuktareva Olga, (referred to by her surname, which is a sign of respect within Ud,) is one of the eight singers that makes up the worldwide phenomena known as The Buranovo Grannies. As of the start of the main storyline, Olga is at the age of forty-four, making her the youngest member of The Buranovo Grannies. She came on to replace their songwriter Elizaveta Filippovna Zarbatova, who had reached an advanced age and could no longer be expected to travel the world and perform.

Olga graduated top of her class from the culture institute in Ud, (culture and history being prized within the village,) and went on to be the Head of the Buranovo House of Culture, and is also the artistic director for the singing group. She is the group member who translates well known songs in the Common Tongue to the language which all of The Buranovo Grannies speak- Udmu. This is so they can give familiar, yet new and quirky performances, which are treasured by many. Although honest and delicate, Olga doesn't let her frailty get in the way of any household chores or farm work.

Random fact- Olga grows fresh cucumbers in her gardens, which always grow a month or two before normal cucumbers. Olga counts this as a blessing, and some theorise that there is something magical about it, even citing that Olga's cucumbers are the very first to grow in the entirety of Raeltir.
