Character Sketch


Zits


Zits is a 15 year old boy. His mother died when he was only 5 years old and his father had left him and his mother before he was born. He was in foster care and bounced around from house to house growing up, until finally officer Dave's brother took him in.

Michael attained his nickname “Zits” from his poor complexion, which he got from his father. He is tall and has a very slim build, with black hair and brown eyes. His skin is fairly dark since his mother was white, and his father was Indian.

Some may describe Zits as a disrespectful ill-mannered boy, but as we look into his mind we see that's not who he really is. Zits has a reputation for talking back, being violent and getting arrested. His hard tough exterior is only protecting whats left of his delicate, broken interior.

As the story progresses, Zits slowly breaks down the wall he built of anger and pain. He learns many lessons, and gets to live others lives, as they go through the same problems. Now, especially with a new understanding of his father, he can start showing who he really is, and be proud of himself for the first time.

  1. I like how you put the amount of detail you described Zits and how clearly you explained his personality.

  2. Your first sentence going into detail of Zit's personality traits is very well written.
