Turn to your Vocabulary Section! Indirect Character Traits – Traits we have to figure out or infer from the author, or the character’s actions. “Charlie came in stomping his feet.” We can infer from the narrator that Charlie must be angry. “I don’t want to go, and you can’t make me!” We can infer from Charlie that he’s angry.
