The character I have chosen to do an in depth analysis of
is Father Damien Karras from the novel The Exorcist. Written in 1971 by the author William Peter Blatty, the book centers on the possession of a young girl called Regan, who is at first just considered to be mentally unstable and that her condition is nothing too serious. As Regans condition rapidly deteriorates though, Regans mother, Chris, calls for more drastic measures to de taken. She ends up asking for the assistance of Father Damien Karras.
