Full Loren Biography
Edriss 562's fourth human host, with whom she created The Sharing. He was originally a real-estate agent named Lawrence Alterman, but Edriss changed his name to Lore David Altman because she believed that leaders were more inspirational with three names. While his mind was a "wasteland" compared to Allison Kim's, he had a powerful voice and looked the part of a charismatic leader. He was later killed because Edriss said that humans always tear down a man who is alive but idolize one who is dead.
Berryman is the host of the Yeerk formerly known as Visser Four. The Yeerk was demoted after the Yeerks lost the planet Leera in book 18. In Megamorphs #3, the Yeerk found the Time Matrix and used it to travel through time to try and weaken the human domination and make the Yeerk invasion of the future easier. When even Crayak and the Ellimist agree that he is a threat, they have a short truce and send the Animorphs to follow him. After several disastrous attempts to stop him, they finally catch up to him on D-Day. Berryman is freed from the Yeerk. Berryman, however, is erased out of existence. The Animorphs prevent his mother from meeting his father, so he was never born, which stopped the chain of events that led to his initial discovery of the Time Matrix itself.
Edriss 562's second human host and a character in Visser. She was addicted to drugs and aspired to be an actor. She was Edriss' first real experience with humans; Edriss' first host, an Iraq soldier, was short-lived. Cadwalader's addiction to drugs led Edriss to initially consider using drugs to infest humans, but she later decided that it also impaired their usefulness. She was later killed when Edriss wanted to infest Allison Kim. Edriss dragged Kim into the deep end of a pool and transferred hosts; her last command was for Jenny to breathe.
Along with Cassie, Ronnie Chambers is one of the assigned protectors of the Hork-Bajir. Although they presumably have many duties, the only one that is seen is scouting for new places for the Hork-Bajir to inhabit. He is Cassie's current boyfriend.
When the Animorphs continuity begins, Chapman is the vice-principal of the school that the Animorphs attend. He is also the head of the Yeerk front organization The Sharing. He plays a critical role in plot of the first novel - Jake watches him enter the Yeerk pool via the janitor's closet, which the Animorphs would use in their first invasion.
At first, the Animorphs hated Chapman because he was a Controller, but they became more sympathetic when they discovered that he became a voluntary host to prevent the infestation of his daughter, Melissa Chapman. When the Yeerk was threatening to turn Melissa over, Chapman rebelled and caused much trouble. This was the Animorphs' first evidence that Controllers could rebel against their Yeerks.
Hildy Gervais is Essam 293's second human host body. For about a year both he and his superior Edriss 562 (who had infested a woman named Allison Kim) were cut off from the Yeerk Empire; during this time the human personalities proved overwhelming for them and they lived as humans - he married Edriss/Allison and fathered two children: Madra and Darwin. But while Edriss ended up reverting back to the Yeerk way Essam did not - Hildy and Essam had become friends and Essam wanted to stay as a human. Hildy Gervais suffered the agony of having Essam 293 die inside him of Kandrona starvation - once Essam was at the point of death he began crawling out of Hildy's ear as is reflex to do.
Loren is reunited with Tobias near the end of the series when the Yeerks discover who the Animorphs really are, which puts their families in danger. She is given the morphing power to escape, although her only morph is Tobias' red-tailed hawk form. The morph returns her eyesight permanently, but not her memory.
Captain Olston is the head commander of the National Guard detachment around the Animorphs hiding location. In The Sacrifice (#52), the Animorphs decide to blow up the Yeerk pool, so they send the adults in as lost campers to distract the Guard while the rest of them invade warehouses of explosives to steal. When they are stopped, Jake introduces himself, and states that he needs explosives. Olston is reluctant. Rachel's lawyer mother, Naomi, introduces herself as well, and Olston thanks her once again for defending his son, who was wrongfully accused of a car theft. If he hadn't been cleared, Olston would likely have left the service in order to continue the case. Naomi stands firmly behind her nephew Jake, and Olston concedes. He later escorts the trucks full of explosives into town.
Captain in charge of Zone 91 (the Animorphs' version of Area 51). Cassie, Rachel and Marco give him fake names and phone numbers when they are captured, and then escape as insects, leaving Torelli bewildered and furious. Zone 91 contains proof of alien existence. However, the sole exhibit is an obsolete Andalite Toilet.
They later encounter him at The Gardens during an attempt by Yeerks to infest the staff of Zone 91, and are forced to rescue him from Hork-Bajir (Torelli is unconscious at the time, so has no memory of the incident). |
