In Yolen's spellbinding twist on the Round Table legend, Morgause feels that her 17-year-old son Gawaine belongs on the throne of England. As she attempts to install him there, she tangles with both the court wizard and Gawaine himself. The author makes Gawaine the emotional lynchpin of the story; he mistrusts his mother and is wholly devoted to the only slightly older King Arthur. Portrayed here as the North Witch, Morgause detests Arthur (her half-brother, according to Arthurian lore), who she feels has usurped the throne. Morgause sends three of Gawaine's brothers back with him to Arthur's court under a diplomatic pretext, and Merlinnus, learning that one of Morgause's sons intends to assassinate Arthur, manufactures the tale of a sword lodged in a block of stone (which, of course, will prove Arthur's fated place upon the throne to a kingdom that has yet to fully embrace him). Yolen constructs a fascinating history linking Morgause to Merlinnus, and breathes fresh life into well-established characters; their encounters crackle with the vitality of overheard conversations. The dynamic between Merlinnus and Arthur is especially well realized: the former a shrewd, resourceful, fatherly man battling the discomforts of age, the latter a restless young king who merely tolerates the mundane responsibilities of monarchy ("Arthur had never met a chair he liked. Or a sport he disliked"). Yolen has explored Arthurian legend before, but her latest foray is a standout in this enormous canon. Ages 12-up. (May)

The character I would like to introduce, describe and list his features from his point of view is Napoleon.
He transformed the way the French military operated and turned France into the greatest military power in Europe. His confidence and ambition inspired his soldiers and their victory brought glory to France. Napoleon saved France from the chaos of the French Revolution.
Hence, we can see that some diary entries to make about Napoleon are:
- He is an eager learner
- He is very strict
- He leads his people well
- He is brilliant
- He uses propaganda well
- He has very efficient work habits
- He had to win at everything he attempted
- He has the right charisma

Answer:
King Minos was a mythical and terrible dictator of Crete who demanded the tribute of Athenian boys to feed to the Minotaur in the Labyrinth and was a judge of the Underworld, as represented in both Virgil's Aeneid and Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy narrative, the Inferno.
Personification is when you give a human characteristic to an inanimate object.
So, you could do something like...
My bedroom door jumped open as I reached for the handle.
Jumped would be the personification of the door because doors can't actually jump.
