Character Archetypes

Kestral

The main character in my story, Kestral, is most like the hero Character type. Kestral lives in a city where how well you do on exams determines your quality of life. The problem is, she hates school, hates exams, and is going to do something about it. when she stands up for herself, she is forced to run away from the city. her brother joins her on her quest to help the cities occupants live a free life.
            Like the hero character type, she is family oriented, self sacrificing (gives up an O.K. life in the city) and willing to go on an adventure. she is also had to become an outlaw in her home in order to attempt to improve the city.

I hate school! I won't reach higher! I won't strive harder! I won't make tomorrow better than today! Pongo to exams! (William Nicholson, The Wind Singer. Back cover)
This quote shows her rebellious spirit. she speaks her mind when others don't have the courage to!
