Cole Matthews is a boy that is full of anger, who must bully others to make up for his own insecurity.
Ms. Matthews is shy and does not stand up for herself or her son, she drinks to forget her troubles, and is afraid of being beaten by her husband if she steps out of line.
Mr. Mattews abuses Cole regularly because he had abusive parents in the past. Cole's father lies to others about the way he treats his son, and is often drunk.
Garvey is a youth care worker who calls Cole "champ" and tries to be someone on whom Cole can depend through the course of the book.
Edwin is a Tinglit Elder and wants the best for Cole.
Peter is the ninth grader who Cole beat up for ratting on him. Peter might have brain damage from the fight.
Mr. Driscal is Peter's dad and does not like Cole for obvious reasons.
Ms. Driscal is Peter's mom and is scared for her son and just wants Cole to go to prison.
Peter's lawyer also wants Cole to be locked away for a very long time, and is skeptical of the Circle.
Cole's lawyer is highly paid by Cole's parents and just wants the case to be over with.
Spirit Bear although the Spirit Bear is not a person in the book, it teaches Cole that he plays a role in nature and that he needs to change his ways or he will die. The Spirit Bear helps Cole when he is on the island.

Cole is either afraid of the spirit bear ( he tries to kill it, people don't kill some thing they're not afraid of. Well then again Cole does have issues.) or he's afraid of being lonely "...the realization that he was alone, totally alone with himself. And it scared him."
One trust quote from "Touching Spirit Bear" by Ben Mikaelsen is, "Trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it's broken, but you can still see the crack in that mother f*cker's reflection." Another trust-related quote from the book is, "Trusting is hard. Knowing who to trust, even harder."
A 'Spirit Bear' is a Kermode Bear, found in Canada. They are a subspecies to the American Black bear and some of them have white or cream coloured coats. This makes them more efficient in catching fish.
