Antagonist

Character Role Analysis

Ara T

When we first meet Ara T, he seems like a pretty minor character. After all, he's just the junk collector who wanders around town doing odd jobs for people and selling his wares. But Victor soon learns the hard way why Mam always tells him to steer clear of Ara T: The man is dangerous and unpredictable.

Ara T starts making Victor's life pretty hard. First he steals his knife, then he roughs up Mam, and finally he breaks into Victor's room and takes his most precious belongings. At the end, Victor and Mam have to go face Ara T. It gets ugly, but fortunately it winds up in Ara T getting the message once and for all to leave them alone.
