No detailed origin narrative is provided in the supplied sources. The extant descriptions present Tootega simply as a wisened old goddess figure in an Inuit mythological frame; beyond that brief characterization the provided materials do not supply an origin tale, genealogy, or creation account.
Tootega is depicted in the available sources as a small, elderly woman who is described as living on an island in a stone hut. The sources give no further physical detail concerning clothing, coloration, or other bodily attributes.
According to the cited summary, Tootega is able "to dispense with kayaks, umiaks and other craft," a phrasing in the source that indicates she can override or render unnecessary such vessels (the precise mechanism is not specified), and she is described as able to walk on water. She is also characterized in the sources as "wisened" and called a "goddess," but the supplied materials do not elaborate on behavioral patterns toward humans or give additional powers.
