![]() ![]() ![]() His family has protected Artemis’s family for generations. He’s actually come very close to death more than a dozen times while protecting Artemis, and he doesn’t just protect him physically-he supports him in all his ridiculous evil genius schemes, and his actions are inspired by love for his charge just as much as they are inspired by his sense of duty.īut besides just being a great bodyguard and a loyal protector, Butler has depth. Butler supports his underage charge, Artemis, through thick and thin, and is probably the best bodyguard in existence (for a person who really needs one). One of my favorite secondary characters is Butler from the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer. They feel like they started living when they were born, not when they walked into the protagonist’s life. They have independent emotions and they don’t behave as if they’re less of a person just because they have less time on stage. and aren’t obviously appearing to fulfill a function for some purpose ordained by a writer in another universe. Secondary characters done right are the ones who aren’t just there as part of a story, aren’t just there to “support” the protagonist. Rachel Schieffelbein is hosting a bloghop on SECONDARY CHARACTERS, and I decided to hop in! This is my first bloghop, y’all! ![]()
