"He shouted an order and they halted"... "boys began to scatter from close line. The tall boy (Jack) shouted at them, 'Choir! Stand still!' Wearily obedient, the choir huddled into line"...One of the boy's asks 'But, Merridew. Please, Merridew...can't we?' We are also told that, "Piggy asked no names.

Describe jack from the Lord of the Flies?
JACK MERRIDEW - Characteristics Jack starts off as an assertive, proud and bossy leader of the choir boys, later evolving his ambitions, and becoming more and more competitive, and thus displaying another side of his condescending nature. His thirst for power has eventually led to his transition into becoming a cruel, tyrannical leader focused on pleasure of hunting, oppressing and intimidating his subjects. The face paint frees him from society's rules and accountability for one's actions. It further permits his safe passage into the savage lifestyle while hidden under the facelessness and anonymity of the paint mask.
