e right thing, no matter what the principal said.

Svetllana [295]
To highlight a character's (usually the protagonist's) personality, the introduction of a foil is used. In Shakespeare's 'Hamlet', Laertes is Hamlet's foil. They were childhood friends but have completely opposite traits and behaviors: Hamlet is verbal, he ponders, and is driven by passionate inaction, Laertes is physical, blusters, and is driven by passionate action.
