Terry Meegis Character Analysis

Terry is the community’s “chief”; he heads up the council, which runs the reserve. Terry is deeply empathetic and non-confrontational but somewhat emotionally weak, and he’s intimidated by Justin Scott. Though Terry is the figurehead of the community, he doesn’t actually wield much power. As the winter progresses, he shifts into a supporting role, increasingly leaning on Evan—who, in turn, takes his advice from the community’s spiritual leader, Aileen.
