CHARACTERS
    A brief description of each character and a few key facts about them.
INSPECTOR JAVERT
1780 - 1832


    
Description:
"[His face] consisted of a snub nose, with two deep nostrils, bordered by large, bushy sideburns covering both his cheeks... Javert was a bulldog; when he laughed, he was a tiger. Beyond that, a small head, large jaws, hair hiding the forehead and falling over the eyebrows, between the eyes a permanent central crease like an angry star, a gloomy look, a pinched and ferocious mouth, and an air of fierce command."

    
Bio:
He was born in a jail, the son of a thief and a whore: two gypsies. As he grew up, he discovered the error of his parents' ways, and when he was an adult, he joined the police. By 1832, he was an Inspector and the Prefect of Police in Montreuil-sur-Mer. He was responsible for accusing the Mayor of being Valjean, and tracking Valeajn all through Paris. He joined the rebels as a spy and was captured, but later set free by Valjean. His principles shattered by Valjean's mercy, he threw himself into the Seine and drowned.

"Do not forget me, 24601!"
"And I stare into the void of a world that cannot hold..."
