-Will to Dark Horse

Personality
Like the earlier Ewells before him, Will has a hard stone set personality, and barely shows emotion, preferring to let his skill and weapons talk for him. Like all Mortals, Will can't stand an insult, despite the fact that he dishes them out constantly. Unable to be taken for a weakling or a "mere Mortal", and unable to turn down a challenge. Will dose have a soft spot though; his younger sister Sofie, whom he'd give his life for.

Appearances
In Dark Horse, Will is attempting to sharpen Sofie's skill with a sword, but the two soon drop it, both knowing that she's no good with it. Along with the rest of their nomadic clan, Will and Sofie travel to Ansmond, captial of the Mortals for the Choosing. Will and Sofie appear again when the Chosen await Dark Horse, where she attempts to make friends with the others. Will holds her back, and the two agree to keep to themselves throughout the challenges, resulting in everyone else doing the same. During the challenge, they decide to seperate, and Will goes ahead while Sofie battles Clide and Kelsey. Keefe stops both Will and Sofie with a distance spell, and they remain on the stairway in a daze while he steals the prism, leaving them both in a sour mood when they return.

Sofia Ewell
Sofia has a close bond with her older brother, and they have stuck together though everything. Although Will tends to be more skilled and less brash than Sofia, he is still fond of his sister, and tries to help her through whatever she's going through. He can also be somewhat commanding towards her, usually when she dose something he knows is wrong or he dislikes.

Will also tells Sofia, "There's that curiosity again, you know it's dangerous here don't you?" showing he dose care for his sister, but is also cautious of her firey personality and brash actions hoping they don't result in something terrible.

Unnamed Parents
Will and Sofie has a stronger relationship with her mother than her father, because although her mother is hard on her, she dose express that, "You will survive. You are different than your predecessors. Good luck." showing that she dose believe Sofia and Will have a chance of coming back and that she has confidece in them.

Wills father, however, states, "You were good while you lasted." implying that he believes they will die, and that he will live just fine without them. After the loss of his father and brother, Mr. Ewell may be depressed, but even so he shows his children a cold shoulder and forces them to work harder.
