Nick

14 years old

chubby

brave

When Hannibal came close to Nick didn't move even though he knew that Hannibal is dangerous and he could kill a human easily

Father is Mr.Freestone

Has a mother

I think Nick is a nice person because he defended Mya even though he didn't know Mya much. When they came to the training camp Nick said that he brought Mya there. So because he was defending a person that he didn't really know I think that speaks to his character. It means that he treats people equally weather he knew or didn't know them or if they are a boy or girl.

Nick is selfless because he went to help his dad escape from the

Shaved his head and eyebrows later

Girlfriend is Mya

Nang

Has excellent English despite being Burmese

Daughter is Mya

Has lots of knowledge about where they live he knows every plant, tree and animal

Son is Indaw

Nang seems like a very knowledgeable because he knows lots of facts about where they are living. He seems like a okay person because his daughter wants to be a mahout but he doesn't allow her to. Its tradition that mahouts are all boys but I think that is sexist because in the book it said that there is no elephant Mya can't train. So if Mya is a good mahout why not let her be one. A father should support their child's dream no matter what gender or how crazy their dreams are.

RIP Nang

Bukong

Broke his leg because of Hannibal and he can never be a Mahout and never forgave Nick's father.

I hate Bukong because he holds a grudge and because he wants to marry Mya. Bukong abuses his spot as the house keeper of Hawk's Nest because he is beating the servants up. Bukong is selfish because he turns on the villagers and hes on the Japanese's side.

Hates Nick for some reason

Beats up Nick

Never smiles at Nick

When Nick got to see the airplanes land Bukong didn't like it

Mya

Polite

She bowed to a monk with a big smile

Follows rules

When his father said she can never be a Mahout she respected his decision

She won't go out of her way to be a Mahout

Father is Nang

Brother is Indaw

I like Mya because she is a kind person. When a monk came she bowed and smiled at the monk. Also when Nick and Mya were walking to the training camp and Nick was tired and thirsty Mya offered Nick water. She's also kind to Miss Pretty (elephant) even though she's not a Mahout because Mya fed the elephant and talks Miss Pretty as if she was a person.

Olive toned skin

Long black hair

Aunt is Kin Kin

Shaved her head and eyebrows later

Boyfriend is Nick

Hilltop

I like Hilltop because he kind to everyone and he helped Mya and Nick escape. He also defended Mya when she came to the training camp with nick.

Monk, he can talk to elephants and the elephants will do what Hilltop asks.

Grandson is Nang

great grandson is Indaw

great granddaughter is Mya

Magwe

Magwe's grandfather was the second mahout Sergeant Major invited from India.

Magwe's family has been on the plantation as long as Mya's family

I don't like Magwe because he's not happy that Mr.Freestone chose Nang to become singoung instead of him. He also didn't allow Mya to go to the training camp because she is a girl. I think girls and boys have the same rights so for him to do that isn't a good impression for me. In the book it said that Magwe was unkind to the elephants. One character from the book said that Magwe was a bully.

He is helping the Japanese

Magwe later saw that the Japanese were no better than the british and gives Nick, Hilltop and Mya food.

I still kinda don't like Magwe because he was selfish to side with the Japanese in the first place. But he is way better than Bukong because Magwe helped Mya, Nick and Hilltop by giving food to them.

Indaw

Sister is Mya

I like Indaw because he is a really supportive brother. Indaw gave Mya a choon that Indaw carved just for Mya. Indaw said that he will make Mya a Mahout and she will be better than most Mahouts that are guys. No Mahout has been a female so I think she'll be really good at it. Indaw really supports Mya and what she wants to be. Indaw is willing to bend the rules for Mya so I think it says a lot about his character.

dad is Nang

Aunt is Kin Kin
