Character Sketch For Dave Conroy

Dave Conroy was a round character who's character traits were easily identifiable as the story proceeded. Dave Conroy was a determined character who continued to take dangerous risks that only ended up making his situation worse. His decision to keep pushing forward instead of setting up camp put him in a situation that he could not get out of. He had a chance to set up camp under a sheltering tree but in order to make time he pressed onward and ended up falling through the ice and freezing his hands. One would also think that Dave Conroy was a courageous character because only a brave man would set on a voyage over a mountain by himself in such harsh conditions. He seemed like a very skilled out doors man as well because of his ability to set up camp in the snow and how he was equipped with everything he needed, so it would be unlikely if it was his first time out in the wilderness. Most of all Dave Conroy was an ignorant character because of the several choices he could have made to save himself, he ignorantly pushed forward and ended up being unable to. Several points in the story explain how he could have stopped and set up camp but instead he kept going. Another piece of evidence in the story that he is ignorant was when he chose to rest out in the open instead of getting to safety which was his biggest mistake leading to his death. Dave Conroy may have been a courageous and determined character but perhaps his vast ignorance was what lead to his death.

Good Conclusion. Watch out for run-on sentences. You were also to have mentioned the title of the story and the author. 5/6

5.5/6 Jeremy Smith I thought he deserved a 5.5 because the paragraph is well laid out and presented. The information is clear and easily understood. For every character trait he gave another reason why he believes that and an example of that character trait from the story and for that he deserves a 5.5/6.
