YOUR JOB IS TO COME TO THE FRONT OF THE CLASS AND DESCRIBE THE CHARACTER WITHOUT MENTIONING THEIR NAME, WHERE THEY ARE FROM, OR THE TITLE OF THE BOOK, MOVIE, OR TV SERIES THEY APPEAR IN.

TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO THINK BEFORE DESCRIBING, AND HAVE FUN WITH IT! LET’S SEE HOW MANY CHARACTERS WE CAN GUESS!
