You might need to read the plot overview first.
Ethan James is one of my few protagonists.
He's timid, quiet, and stays away from things. You can't blame him really. He's had an incredibly bad history.
Ethan was just nine when his father died, and he found himself unable to identify why. He and his father had had a real connection, a fantastic bond, and he was just suddenly…gone. He got through it though, with his mother, Belle, and his sister, Ratu.
He and Ratu were like best friends. They did everything together. It could seem unusual that Ethan and his little sister got on so well, but they’d been through so much together.
Suddenly, on his 13th birthday, Ratu was killed by a falling tree. (Anyone got any suggestions as to a better death?) Everything changed and Ethan became depressed. He never smiled at things, never laughed at all. This was mostly because of the horrible last words he had shouted at Ratu. He was disturbed, and solemnly sad.
One day everything suddenly started getting better when the sanctuary adopted an orphan tiger cub. They named it Ratu (later discovering it was a boy!) and Ethan created a real connection with it. They became the new best friends.
The rest of Ethan’s life is yet to be written.
Appearance:
Ethan is fairly short and slim. He has scruffy bark-brown hair and bright azure eyes. His lips are sweetly small and he still has his round baby face. He is very lightly freckled, and you can only see them in the summer.
