"He was a small, skinny boy, his chin pointed and his eyes so bright they had deceived Ralph into thinking him delightfully gay and wicked" (55).

"The coarse mop of black hair was long and swung down, almost concealing a low broad forehead" (55-56).

Simon is a mysterious person. He likes to venture off by himself, without the other boys. Like when he had his own little area.

"the choir boy who had fainted, sat up against the palm tree and smiled faintly at Ralph and said his name was Simon" (22)

Simon is also a responsible person. He took care of the littluns, he would get them fruit from the trees they couldn't reach plus he helped Ralph build the shelters.

Simon also happens to be a superstitious person, we know this because when they were talking about the beast, Simon mentioned that the beast could be them, which is not proven, or even a popular opinion.

Simon is secretive because he kept the spot in the woods all to himself but in reality he goes there to get away for the time being.
