Natsilane

"Wait- you're- you're telling me I'm supposed to fight a creature of legend - with a stick? Get real!"

- Natsilane, complaining about the given battle equipment by Angela.

Natsilane (aka Nick) is a recurring protagonist in the Season 2 episode "Heritage", which is an episode of the animated series "Gargoyles". He is considerably the chief of Queen Florence Island, which is a fictional border between Alaska and Canada. Natsilane is the one-shot character who encountered the Manhattan Clan during their first arrival in Canada. He is a member of a tribe known as the Haida.

Heritage
Grandmother convinces Natsilane he is the chief of the Canadian borders and is told to climb on the island's volcano in order to confront a notorious shapeshifter known as Raven. However, she shows him how to be a member of the Haida tribe and is prompting her to call him "Nick". Thereupon, she looks at Elisa Maza who is marooned on the island, which was caused by Grandmother in her sea serpent form.

As Elisa is being cured by Grandmother, Natsilane is very stubborn that he wants a chopper to bring her to a hospital. Natsilane reported back to Grandmother that the chopper isn't there to rescue Elisa after Elisa is being cured.

Upon meeting Elisa, he prompts her she can't hike all by herself. She explains about the totem pole where Raven was standing on to him. Natsilane answers back that totem poles are wooden animals carved and to honour his ancestors. Grandmother doesn't believe gargoyles are real, so she tells Natsilane to open his heart before it's too late.

Back then, Elisa lets Natsilane introduce herself to Goliath, Angela, and Bronx. She explains to him that there are more things than in heaven than earth to prove about the gargoyles. He is given a Haida shield and a scythe by Angela and is forced to fight Raven to become the chief of the island. Natsilane has refused to listen, leaving his given equipment in the island.

While at the volcano, Natsilane is equipped in his battle equipment in order to confront Raven. After bringing the totem beasts to life, Natsilane is confronting Raven with his shield and scythe. Raven gets weakened by Natsilane after fighting him. Then he retreats after refusing to admit about taking care of the island. Natsilane has become the chief of the island and will continue to protect the lands in the future.

Errors

 * Natsilane doesn't wear traditional Haida clothing when confronting Raven and his illusions. Instead, he wears a Native American headdress and some Plains Indian clothing.

Trivia

 * There was supposed to be a descendant of Natsilane and the Maza family in the spin-off "Gargoyles 2198". Also known as "Guardian", his full name was "Nicholas Natsilane Maza". This was scrapped.
