Hi!
An author's tone is basically their overall feeling or <em>attitude </em>toward a topic. The tone can be anything from angry, happy, or even sad.
Here's an example:
'And just like that, she left. The walls of melancholy arose; closing in on me once more. I stood alone'.
You would say that the tone in this passage would be of sadness.
Hopefully, this helps you! =)

Answer:
I don't know what or even if there are answer choices for this, but it sounds an awful lot like a <u><em>vigilante.</em></u>
Explanation:
From what I can find, the definition of vigilante is "a member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority, typically because the legal agencies are thought to be inadequate". So, not exactly the same, but it sounds similar.
