1. Who is/are the main character(s) in the story? What does the main character look like?
- The main character's name is Brille, he's an old man who SURPRISINGLY wears glasses. The other main character's name is Hennetjie, who is a warden for Span One. He's a tough guy.
2. Describe the main character's situation. Where does he/she live? Does he/she live alone or with others? What does the main character do for a living, or is he/she dependent on others for support?
- Brille is a wise old man who's patient and has had a lot of life experience. He has a family that he's trying to support too. Another one of the main characters is the warden Hennetjie, who hates Brille for backstabbing him. They are all in a work camp in Span One.
3. What are some of the chief characteristics (personality traits) of the character? How are these characteristics revealed in the story? How does the main character interact with others?Note the degree of complexity of his/her behavior, thought, and feelings; their appearances, their habits, mannerisms, speech, attitudes and values. What is the main character's attitude towards his/her life? is he/she happty or sad, content or disconteted?Why?
- Brille is basically the stereotypical wise old man that has gone through a lot in his life and has ended up in Span One. The manner in which he interacts with his comrades are patient and polite, and he seems to show respect to everyone, no matter what their age is, or where they're from.
4. What sort of conflict is the character facing? How is this conflict revealed? Is it resolved? If so, how?
- The conflict part of the story can be summarized into one word: The Warder. Brille and his comrades must be put through all of this guy's mistreatment and abusive behaviors towards them. The conflict was solved when Brille caught the Warder doing something that he punishes others for, so Brille uses leverage to get the best of the warder.
5. Is any character a developing character? If so, is his change a large or a small one? is it a plausible change for him? Is he sufficiently motivated? Is the change given sufficient time?
I believe that there isn't any developing character because the story is extremely straight to the point.
