	— Aunt Arctic as The Director

Aunt Arctic, also known by her EPF codename, The Director, is the news reporter and editor-in-chief for the newspaper on the Club Penguin Island, called the Club Penguin Times. She is also the Director of the EPF, making her one of the most important penguins on the island. She is responsible for keeping all penguins around the island informed about the weekly news, and to protect the island from any dangerous threats, such as Herbert P. Bear, with the Elite Penguin Force.
She is such a skillful writer that she even has her own advice column, "Ask Aunt Arctic", where she makes it her duty to answer any troubling questions her fellow penguins might have. Any penguin can submit his or her question to Aunt Arctic for a chance at submission.
She is a key character in Mission #1, in which she had lost her green and purple puffles that needed to be returned. She owned a purple puffle before they were available in the Pet Shop and available to penguins.
She did not appear on the island as a mascot until the Penguin Play Awards.

Elite Penguin Force

Main article: The Director of The EPF

Aunt Arctic is the Director of the EPF. After keeping her secret identity hidden for so long, she finally reveals it once you complete all 6 steps of Operation: Blackout.
In the past, it was believed that many other penguins, such as Unknown Band member and Rory were the Director. This has finally been proven false after Operation: Blackout.
The Director has worked for many agencies such as Penguin Secret Agency, Elite Penguin Force and Elite Penguin Force Resistance. The EPF Resistance was a co agency to the EPF which has been opened due to Herbert destroying the EPF Command during Operation: Blackout. It closed after Operation: Blackout.
The Director has also been involved in missions such as Operation: Hibernation, Operation: Spy & Seek, Operation: Blackout, Battle of Doom and many more.

Appearances as The Director

The Director is seen on the EPF monitor several times in mission briefings, but it's censored on the monitor.
The Director appears in the beginning of Mission 10 on a computer screen that pops out of the desk.
The Director appeared in an explicit interview in the Club Penguin Times on the 15^th of January 2011, after the EPF was confirmed to be real to the public in another article which may appear to be Herbert P. Bear. Strangely, the interview was not direct and took place in the Dance Lounge.
The Director sends messages to all EPF agents every once in awhile. When she does, if you look carefully at the image of her, it appears she is holding a puffle. It is unknown what type it is.
Penguins say that in the final level of System Defender, her real identity will be revealed. This is false, because the final System Defender level is a battle against Herbert, and secretly tracking his location. The Director does however make an appearance, giving orders.
If you type in "Director" on the new buddy list it will say "That information is highly classified try searching someone else."
During System Defender on one level, she would say, "Let this be our finest hour". This is what the British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, said during World War II.
There is a picture of The Director in one of the log off screens. The picture says Top Secret.
She appeared in the Yearbook 2011-2012 when you moused over the word "Unnoticed" on Dot's profile.
- She also appeared in the Yearbook 2012-2013 when you moused over the word "Aunt Arctic" on Aunt Arctic's profile.
The Director was on Herbert's capture list for Operation: Blackout.
Some people thought she was going to be a mascot for Operation: Blackout. This was semi-true. You can see her in a Containment Cell in the Central Command Room, but she does not walk around nor talk.
At the end of Operation: Blackout, it was revealed that Aunt Arctic is truly the Director.
The Director is shadowed during briefing to conceal her identity.
