My character description is about Captain Beatty. The way Captain Beatty views his job is that it is important to society and is required to stop books from neglecting a certain group of people, and to get rid of the past. Captain Beatty reacts to the woman burning in the house by saying that is was necessary that it happened to burn all the books in the house. He believed in the law and let the woman burn since she had the match in her hand.
The way I see Captain Beatty is that he looks like a brute of a man. he has big, bulking muscles, he has a orange snake tattoo on his bicep to represent his fireman position. He has burn scars varying around his body since he is a fireman. He has a sharp chin line and he also has a trimmed beard and moustache. He seems like the person who would likely have blonde or black hair. The most important said by him is, "At least once in his career, every fireman gets an itch. What do the books say, he wonders. Oh, to scratch that itch, eh" Pg.59. This meant that every fireman wonders about the books just like Montag is doing now. His curiosity gets the best of them and they want to see what is in them. The most important said about Captain Beatty is, "And men like Beatty are afraid of her. I can't understand it. Why should they be so afraid of someone like her?" Pg. 64. This means that Captain Beatty and the rest of the people who believe in the government are afraid of people like Clarisse who wonder about the world and WHY things happens.
