Thief of Law
Characters in Pictures
The following is a brief summary of some of the major character in The Thief of Law. The pictures are generated using a program called Fábrica de Heróis. They are not exact representations of the characters as described in the novel. This is due in part to limitations of the Fábrica de Heróis program, my inexperience using it, and my near total ignorance of Portuguese. However, they do help in visualizing the characters.
