The word that you're looking for is called "mediagenic." I really hope that this helped :)
A static character is a character that has personality, but has not changed heart or outlook on life by the end of the story. For example, Killer Kane from Freak the Mighty. He's evil and cruel at the beginning and the same way by the end of the book. Hope I helped!
The phrase "damp cold seemed riveted" suggests about the narrator's feeling that:
a. He cannot escape the feeling of icy dread.
