- The Maze Runner Character- Thomas Cited Evidence- "The lightless elevator swayed back and forth as it ascended turning the boys stomach sour with nausea, a smell like burnt oil invaded his senses, making him feel worse.

- Strongest personality trait- Strong Decision Maker Cited Evidence- " He held a hand out. "Names Alby." he waited clearly wanting to shake hands. Thomas refused som instinct took over his actions and without doing anything he turned away from alby and walked towards a tree"(Dashner 8).

- WE WILL ESCAPE THIS MAZE EVEN IF WE DIE TRYING.
- Character trait- Confused Cited Evidence- " Thomas barely heard himself his thoughts have spun in a new direction. If Chuck was right he'd just discovered a link to the rest of the boys. A common pattern in their memory losses. They only remembered their names why not parents"( Dashner 16). Thomas is a confused character because he has so many questions that he wants to solve but he can't figure them out.
- Character Trait- Different Cited Evidence- "Thomas was scared to admit it . " I...swear I heard a name . Teresa." "Teresa No, I didn't hear that . Must've sprung loose from your memory blocks"(Dashner 183). Thomas is different because he has an ability to hear teresa from his mind and no one else can hear it. He is different because of that, no one else gets how he can hear voices in his head.
- Character trait- Determined Cited Evidence- " Newt frowned. "Well, ain't that just cheery?" Thomas turned to walked away, but Newt called out to him. "Tommy?" "Yeah?"

We can hope that a lot of the Grievers might be out and about in the Maze and not the hole of thiers"(Dashner 316). Thomas had an idea to leave the maze and told the whole glade but they didn't want to risk their lives. So him and Newt tried to convince them into leaving this is Determination because thomas won't give up until the people leave the maze.
