Luke 

                         Luke is one of the shadow children. He is very curious about his abnormal life. He has been living a miserable life his whole life. He was born as a third child while the law of only being able to have two children was still being reinforced. So, he has been hiding for his entire life and might never be able to leave the house in a very long time. He isn't even allowed to go near any windows even if the shades are pulled. Then, his life changed when he spotted another shadow child secretly and broke into her house. Then later, he got a fake I.D. and had to go to a whole different family that was willing to pretend he was there child, Lee Grant, who actually died in a skiing accident. Therefore, Luke is a very courageous and curious child.

                          Jen is another shadow child. She has extreme faith in herself, maybe even a little too much. Jen wanted to make all of the shadow children free, and to do this, she had to plan out a rally to protest against the government. She even wanted Luke to cross her lawn to get into her house any day he could. She wasn't even afraid he would get caught. She also hid potato chips and soda when they were illegal at the time. This was how brave she was. She wasn't afraid the government could track her down on the computer, and she wasn't scared she would get caught shopping with a fake pass in a mall. Then, when she thought her rally would work, she died with the other 39 kids. 
                                                                                        



                                                                                          
                                                                                            Jen's Dad 

                         Jen's dad is a very trustworthy dad and neighbor. He works for the population police, but still had a third child even when he works for the people who enforce the law of only having 2 children. Yet, when Luke broke into their house to look for Jen, Jen's dad came to the house and didn't even harm Luke. After that, his workers from the population police showed up and searched the house, and Jen's dad hid Luke into a closet to help him from being caught! Then, Jen's dad even gave Luke a fake I.D. so he could be able to go to school and not have to hide all the time. This shows how much you could trust Jen's dad.
    

                                                                         


                   Population Police 

                          The population police is a very brutal group of police. They enforce the law that maintains a strict population. This law restricts people form having over 2 children. This law is completely unnecessary, yet the police still enforce the law very strictly. The government established this law because they think all of the people would run out of food, which is nonsense.
