"She had short black hair and freckles across her nose. She was built like a long-distance runner, lithe and strong and she wore clothes that were somewhere between punk and Goth-a black T-shirt, black tattered jeans, and a leather jacket with bottons from a bunch of bands I'd never heard of." (Riordan,277) This is a direct charactorization of Thalia because the author is describing her not through actions
-
"He was six-foot-three and built like the Abominable Snowman, but he cried a lot and was scared of just about everything." (Riordan,9) This is a direct characterization because the narroator is telling the reader what Tyson is like and what he looks like.
