Citra is competitive and that can get annoying

# data[].attributes.body
I would probably be friends with both of them for different reasons. I like the way that Rowan has compassion to people. He is brave because he refused to all Kohl to die alone. I like Citra's determination and spunk. I could see me being friends with both of them. What has happened with Rowan since he was sent to Goddard is not his fault. It is just a terrible situation.

# data[].attributes.body
I would most likely be friends with Rowan more than Citra because Citra is to bold and usually bold people don't clash well with me. Rowans personality is unlike mine so we would weigh each other out.

I would most likely be friends with Citra. I would be friends with her because though she is a scythe she seems like she still cares for people and she seems like she would be a good friend. This is the apprentice I would most likely be friends with.

Rowan, he doesn't care as much abou the competition, if I was friends with Citra she would care more about the competition than being a good friend but Rowan would try to be a good friend.

# data[].attributes.body
I think he did this to show that Goddard is not all powerful and some people disagree with his actions.

esme is a young girl that is super spoiled rotten and all she wants to do is play games and eat and I think that she is going to become a scythe under the leadership of scythe godard.-JD

# data[].attributes.body
This character could add a huge twist to the story. Volta is the one scythe who is like rowan. They both think gleaning is bad but they proceed to enhance in it because of goddard. Rowan knows what volta thinks and volta just won't admitt it.

# data[].attributes.body
Rowan because he doesn't have many friends and he's a really nice person

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Neal Shusterman did that because he wanted to show the reader that just because Goddard is a bad person does not mean that everyone in his group just follows his ways and can glean the way that he does.

Volta is included to show the internal conflict. For the others, it is easy to behave that way, but it is tearing him apart. It also shows what life would be like for Rowan if he were to join the group. They are cut from the same cloth.

# data[].attributes.body
Scythe Goddard is going to make her into a scythe

# data[].attributes.body
The author most likely made the character Scythe Volta to show the apprentice Rowan that he is not the only person who does not want to be a scythe. Also to show that he is not the only person who cares for people's lives.

# data[].attributes.body
rowan because citria is different and rowan is a guy that is more fun and more into what he is doing and some guys dont go well with friends as girls

I think that Esme might eventually become a Scythe that does something crazy in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
Esme is the girl that Goddard took with him from the food court when he did a mass gleaning. She might so importent right now so whenever Rowan becomes a scythe she can be his appretice when Esme is old enough and when Rowan knows what he is doing

# data[].attributes.body
I think that esme would be friends with rowan and so would volta-JD

# data[].attributes.body
Rowan because he is very kind to everyone and of course he is boy also.

It is hard for me to answer the question because I have read the whole book, and I know who she is. I can just say that she must be someone very important for Goddard to "capture" her and cater to her every whim.

# data[].attributes.body
Volta was made because he or she is like Rowan in a way because they both are not comfort around Goddard because they don't like the sport of killing a whole building of people.

# data[].attributes.body
Esme is the little girl that the cythes decided to take when they performed there mass gleaning at the mall. I think that Esme is going to be part of Rowans final training. I think Rowan is going to have to glean Esme for his last part of his training. I think this because Volta gave a hint infering that this was going to happen.

Esme is a girl who was taken by Goddard and the new order scythes and I think she is important to Goddard because she could be somehow related to him and maybe she has a bigger part in the storyline

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is to show that even though they kill lots of people every week that it is still sad and painful to watch people die.

# data[].attributes.body
To show that not all new and young scythes are evil and to show how controlling and awfulk scythe Goddard is because scythe Volta said that once he got involved there is no way to get uninvolved.

# data[].attributes.body
This is just a guess but maybe he is her daughter in some way. I think this because Scythe Goddard in the book is mean, cruel, and harsh to people and suddenly he just gives a nine year old girl immunity and gives her everything she wants. This is my educated guess based on the clues from the book.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Esme might remind Goddard of himself when he was a child so he shows compassion to her. Since he sees himself in her he might also want her to be under his training when she becomes old enough to be an apprentice so that Goddard can have someone like himself in his group.

# data[].attributes.body

Esme is a spoiled little overweight girl who was taken in by Scythe Goddard for something. I think she is a key to like a big plan for Goddard.

# data[].attributes.body
Rowan because is not like all scythe And he give warning before he kills them and don't want to kill for a sport.

# data[].attributes.body
So readers would know that not everyone is bad from the inside.

# data[].attributes.body
If I had to guess Esme has something to do with one of the heads of the Scythedome because why else would they treat Esme with royality if they didn't want to use her later on t get what they want.

# data[].attributes.body
Esme is so important because Goddard sees something in her that not everyone can see and he's most likely is going to have esme be rowans apprentice- emma

# data[].attributes.body
he made him to show that goddard is a evil person that rowan needs to get out before he becomes evil

# data[].attributes.body
I think Esme is Goddard daughter because he is protecting her to much and he solves her problems , and that's what a dad does.
