Wed 25/5 Characterisation

In groups: Who are the important characters of the first 7 chapters?

1. Who are they? 

 Ender- Ender is the main protagonist in the entire book. He is the person the book is based around. He is the backbone of the plot. 
Peter- Peter is Enders brother. He is shown in the chapter (peter) as the antagonist, he is a sub character and gives the story more depth and detail into enders life.
Valentine- Valentine is Enders sister.
Graff- Graff is the commander of battleschool and is responsible for the development of leaders for the fleet. 
Alai- Alai is Enders best friend after Ender spreads his influence as top dog in the launchies group.
Bernard- Bernard is the boy who irritates ender and gets his arm broken on the shuttle on the way up to battleschool. He plays as the antagonist when they reach battleschool and are on the ship in the first few weeks. 
Shen- Shen is Enders first friend.
