Guide Mentor
Character Role Analysis
Tobin
Tobin is an ex priest, but you wouldn't know it by the way he travels with a bunch of mercenaries and kills innocent Aboriginal people. That said, he becomes a mentor to the kid when he gives him advice about being ruthless. For Tobin, there is no chance of survival for people who show any weakness in Glanton's gang. Heck, even getting wounded in battle is enough to earn you a bullet through the head from Glanton himself. So much for second chances. The kid never listens to Tobin and he eventually pays the price. We never find out what happens to Tobin in the end. But who knows? Maybe he's just a figment of the kid's imagination.
