Johnny Cade – The Unseen Hero Johnny, the meekest member of the Greasers, was slightly built, with big-black eyes in a dark tanned face and long, jet-black hair heavily greased and combed to the side. He had the appearance of "a little dark puppy that had been kicked too many times and is lost in a crowd of strangers," due to his suffering at the hands of the Socs. He always seemed to be cringing and uncertain of himself, largely because he had been a battered child. His father had frequently beaten him, and his mother had ignored him except to scream at him about something. As a result, the greasers had always tried to protect Johnny.
I have chosen Meshak as the main character because, although he might not be a classic main character, he is the one who brings the various small stories together in the end. He is the one who saves Melissa’s baby and takes him to Coram. He knows that Aaron is Melissa’s baby, and he knows that Otis is still alive - he is the only person who knows all this, and yet he doesn’t tell anyone, because he wants to protect Aaron. He is also quite an interesting character because of the way he thinks of some of the other characters, and how he is treated in return. I think his appearance did convey his personality quite well in a way.
Wart is a very good person, but his actions always seem to go overlooked by everyone. One prime example of this is when Kay brought the griffin head and Wart brought Wat as a reward for saving the trapped prisoners. Wat was a mad man but Wart believed that Merlyn could have cured him. Wart obviously has the right intentions and put the well being of others his top priority. When the boys come back home, everyone seems disgusted to see Wat back but everyone seems proud of Kay especially Sir Ector.

Last we checked, riding in rodeos was no crime, but jumping little kids is pretty bad. I were also a tad shocked when Dally got out of the hospital by holding a knife to a nurse's throat. With all of this Dallas (Dally) Winston, was a hard nut but he loved Johnny and when he blamed Johnny’s death because of his actions he couldn’t take it and went on a all out suicide mission to die. Ponyboy isn’t sure why but Darry as we are told through Ponyboy thinks that Johnny was loved by all, but throughout the book Johnny looked up to Dally who when Johnny died couldn’t take
“It is much easier to become a father than to be one.” — Kent Nerburn Being a true father is never an easy task. As for Tom Garrison, a dynamic character in the play I Never Sang for My Father by Robert Anderson, his traumatic childhood memory of being abandoned has made it even more difficult for him to be a good father for his children. Those painful memories did turn him into a strong, remarkable man, but they also made him become a selfcentered person and a pathetic, unloving father. Steel that has gone through the hottest fire is the strongest one. Likewise, the hardships Tom had to endure as a child toughened his soul and sharpened his mind.
