Characters Part Three

This post is a continuation of the last few posts. I will once again talk more about character development in the novel School Wars: The Prophecy of Light. The next character I will talk about is Dillon Sunshine. Dillon is a very popular beta trooper at Sunset Shadows. He is one of the captains of the famous unit, Sunstrike. Dillon may not have appeared in the book a lot compared to the others, but the readers know that he is loyal to his school. One of his famous quotes was "I would do anything to protect Sunset Shadows" symbolizing his loyalty. Near the climax of the book Dillon's loyalty was put to the test when he learned the dreaded truth about Sunset Shadow's president. Dillon decided to eliminate his loyalty towards the president as he joined the Resurgents. Dillon has evolved into a loyal leader to the Resurgents and to his school especially after figuring out the truth about Sunset Shadow's president.

The next character I will talk about is Mr. Mount. Like Dillon, Mr. Mount is not featured in a lot of chapters in the book, but he still was a well developed character. Mr. Mount is known for his anger and strictness. He is the AVICT teacher in the novel. Throughout the book the readers witness Mr. Mount's anger especially towards the main protagonist, Danny Starlight. Later on in the book,  the final battle occurred. Sunset Shadows or the Resurgents needed all of its soldiers to fight in this battle including the Alpha Teachers. We learned that Mr. Mount is not just some angry teacher. He is a brave, strong, and loyal Sunset Shadows soldier. His bravery in the Battle of Meterozoneiac City earned Mr. Mount a promotion.

Another character that has been well developed is Thomas Hernandez. He does feature more in the book than Mr. Mount and Dillon. Thomas, in my opinion, is Danny's greatest ally in the book. Thomas supported Danny's decision to become a tracker, was also supportive of Danny during the Battle of Sunset Shadows, Moonrise Light, and Meterozoneiac City. He has also been loyal to his school just like the other characters in the book. Overall, if I had to describe Thomas's personality in one word it would be supportive.
