He leaves his community to go on adventure performing deeds because he leaves to get away from the cops and goes on a sort of "adventure" to hide in a old abandoned church since he got involved with a murder before going back home. ]]> 2016-04-22 14:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107241482 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107242069 Trickster - He and his gang, the Greasers, always are mischievous type of people, and they disobey the rules a lot. Especially Two-bit and he always seems to be joking around twenty-four-seven. Also they said in the book that "...he always had to get his two-bits worth in. Hence his name." (p.12) and "...he couldn't stop making funny remarks to save his life." (p.12)  ]]> 2016-04-22 14:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107242069 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107242517 Tragic Hero/Know-it-all - Darry is the Tragic Hero because he thinks Pony is a kid and never seems to think he's good enough get angry at him and then ends up in a situation where Pony runs away and gets involved with a murder that Johnny committed trying to save Ponyboy. He is also the know it all because he seems to think he is better and much more mature than everybody else.  ]]> 2016-04-22 14:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107242517 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107243635 The Scapegoat/Hot Shot - he is known for taking risks like getting into fights and jumping a few people and  often times gets falsely blamed for things by people since he has been to prison and picked up by the fuzz (cops) so many times for so many different types of crimes he committed. ]]> 2016-04-22 14:34:26 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107243635 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107244635 The Peacemaker/Mediator/
Confident - She is confident with Pony and she tries to bring the Greasers and everyone else to peace, hence "peacemaker". Also there is a scene in the book where 
Two-Bit and Ponyboy almost start a fight with her boyfriend Bob and she says "No! Stop it!" (p.42) and "I can't stand fights...I can't stand them..." (p.42)]]> 2016-04-22 14:38:31 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107244635 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107245831 The Sidekick/Reluctant Hero/ The Victim - He got bullied by the Greasers a lot, and they tried to kill him by tackling him to the ground then holding a pocket knife to his neck. He helps Pony with his plan to escape the community. He was doomed to have a bad ending to his story because of the things that happens at home with his parents he really didn't have that great of a life to go back to even if he was someone who saved five kids from a fire]]> 2016-04-22 14:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107245831 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107795332 2016-04-26 14:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107795332 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/107796142 When we took the personality test it said that Dally was observant and didn't care about his feelings as much as reality. This plays a role in how he commits suicide when Johnny dies. It also said that his role was explorer and his strategy was social engagement. This ties in to how the book "Dally had spent three years on the wild side on New York and had been arrested at the age of ten." (p.13) Also it said that he had lots of association with the gangs there.

He got arrested for the first time when he was only ten. "No rival gang. Only Socs. And you can't win against them no matter how hard you try, because they've got all the breaks and even whipping them isn't going to change the fact. Maybe that's why Dallas was so bitter" 
(p. 13) I think that motivated him to commit crimes and act angry all the time which is why he got sent to jail so much. This might also be why he likes to blow off steam in fights instead of trying to beat something that apparently can't be beaten.

But everyone respects him because he's smart. Dally also likes to blow off steam in fights even though he had no specific thing to hate. 
-  Dally tries to keeps the people he cares about safe because he helped Johnny and Ponyboy get away from the fuzz "cops". He also ended up killing himself when Johnny died. "...he turned and jerked a black object from his waistband. I remembered his voice: I been carryin' a heater. It ain't loaded..." " Dally raised the gun, and I thought you blasted fool. They don't know you're bluffing." "He was jerked half around by the impact of the bullets, then slowly crumpled with a look of grim triumph on his face." all page (p.134)]]> 2016-04-27 14:13:50 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108028172 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108028931 -  Dally has been to jail many times for various reasons, such as shoplifting, lying, cheating, jumping small children, etc., and that is one of his biggest flaws. "One night I saw Dally gettin' picked up by the fuzz, and he kept real cool and calm the whole time." (p. 68) 
-  Dally also gets falsely blamed for things which is his other biggest flaw. "They was gettin' him for breakin' out the windows in the school building, and it was Two-Bit who did that." (p. 68) Also later in the story when Dally comes to find Johnny and Ponyboy he says how the police took him in to question him about the murder and about how he gets blamed for things all the time. ]]> 2016-04-27 14:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108028931 2021andra49 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108033524 Dally is a bee. He buzzes around people annoying them with his crimes and 
up-tightness, and he's been taken to the hive to serve his time by the fuzz and swatted at numerous times.  However, Dally pollinates everything with his intelligence, so he must be respected by everyone, despite his stinging reputation.]]> 2016-04-27 14:32:19 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108033524 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108357563 2016-04-28 20:03:24 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108357563 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108357685 Integral setting is where the setting has a big role in how the plays out and if you switched the setting you'd have to switch the story and this definitely applies to 
"The Outsiders". If the story were set somewhere else then the abandoned church wouldn't have been there for them to hide in and there wouldn't have been that scene where they ran in to save the children when the church burned down. "We pushed open a door and found four or five little kids, about eight years old or younger, huddled in a corner." (p. 82)]]> 2016-04-28 20:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108357685 https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108358291 The conflict is the problem in the story and the problem is shown strongly throughout the story of "The Outsiders".
In "The Outsiders" there are many conflicts but the main one is a mix between two. The two conflicts are the conflicts between the Socs and Greasers and the conflict of not being caught by the cops looking for Johnny and Ponyboy for the murder of Bob. ""Johnny!" I nearly screamed. "What are we gonna do? They put you in the electric chair for killing people!"" (p.52)]]> 2016-04-28 20:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/2021andra49/8x8mdwao35px/wish/108358291
