1. Give me some important details based on the important characteristics we have discussed at the start of class. 
   PETER;
   Actions - Peters ruthless actions make him seem like a vicious human being that doesn't have any decency or any self moral. He attacks Ender and Valentine and says hes going to kill them. Because of this we know that Peter will effect Enders thoughts for the rest of the book.
   Speech - Peter speaks with a sort of evil, manipulative edge to it, he says things to sound powerful and smart, he tries to over power Ender.
   Thoughts - We don't get any thoughts of Peter inside his head which automatically means he is not our main character.
   Effect on others - Peter has a HUGE effect of Ender and a HUGE effect on Valentine. He allows Ender to push himself further, but it also slows him down because he doesn't want to be like his antagonist Peter. He also effects Valentine by showing that Valentine and Ender are on the same side by him threating her and saying he'll kill her too.
