Protagonist

Antagonist
Dr. Golan (the wight) and The Hollowgast
Just wait, once I get the peculiars you will no longer be a hollowgast. They don't stand a chance.
Jacob is a teenager who grew up hearing the stories his grandfather told of his so-called past. Jacob used to believe those stories, but after a while, he thought of them only as fictitious myths. Jacob and his grandfather were very close, nearly on a father-son basis. So when Abe dies, and Jacob sees one of the monsters from Grandpa Abe's stories, Jacob begins to question if the stories were truly real.
Internal Conflict
I hope this helps you, Son. I don't want it to make you worse. You may see something and loose all your progress.
Thank you Dad.
The main protagonist in the story was Jacob. He was the main protagonist in the story because he was fighting for what seemed the right cause and he was the main character. Jacob is a very nice kid. He has the best intentions for everything, but that can leave him to be a little naive, clueless or vulnerable sometimes. He always tried to fight for what is right in his heart and he is a genuine kid. Multiple times throughout the book, some of the peculiars mistook him for his peculiar Grandpa who used to be friends with the peculiars.
Rising Action
Hey Dad. I am going to go explore. Goodbye.
The antagonist in this book was a wight who Jacob knew by the name of Dr. Golan. This wight had played many roles in Jacob's life because he was following Jacob to the biggest prize of all, the peculiars. Like all other wights, Golan had no pupils. His main goal was to kill all peculiars and feed them to hollowgasts, particularly one named Malthus, so they can turn into wights and no longer be the invisible hollowgasts they are.
Climax
The main internal conflict with Jacob was coming to terms with his grandfather's death. The whole reason he went to the island of the coast of Whales (where the peculiars were) was because he felt as though he had to fulfill his grandfather's dying words. He was told by everybody that the monsters who killed Grandpa Abe were figments of his imagination. Jacob however still felt as though they were real and wanted to find out everything that had to do with his grandfather.
Jacobs's Journey to Cairnholm
Be back before dinner.
The rising action in this story was when Jacob kept sneaking out to go into the time loop with the peculiars. Some suspicion arose when Jacob was consistently coming back after dark and never coming back in his normal clothes. When he was at the house with the peculiars, news of headmistresses from other loops being abducted had been spreading around and some people were starting to get on edge while others wondered what was to come.
Jacob Leaving For The Peculiars
The climax of the story was when the peculiars snuck out of the time loop to go see Martin, a present-day man who had been mysteriously murdered. The peculiars end up running into a hollowgast named Malthus, and a wight who followed Jacob there to the island. This wight had played many roles in Jacob's life, from being his bus driver to a therapist, Dr. Golan the wight knew almost everything about Jacob. Jacob was shocked to hear this news and started to remember that he had never seen his bus driver's eyes becuase he always wore sunglasses and Dr. Golan wore contacts.
