Content: Overlanders
The term Overlander refers to any human born in the Overland to parents who were also born there. In general, they have darker skin and hair than Underlanders, and their eyes range from blue to brown. These differences are not permanent, however, as all Underlanders are descendants of Overlanders who lost these qualities over time. Gregor - Gregor is an eleven-year-old New Yorker who discovers the Underland when his little sister Margaret, nicknamed Boots, falls into their apartments ventilation system. He is believed to be the "warrior" described in Bartholomew of Sandwich's prophecies. He is also a rager, or someone who is overcome by a kind of powerful frenzy in battle that is hard to control (similar to the berserkers of Norse mythology ). Gregor tries to avoid fighting when he can, at first because he believes that a peaceful resolution to a problem is the best kind of solution, and later because he is scared of how good he is at fighting due to his rager "powers". In Gregor and the Code of Claw, he learns echolocation, a valuable skill for fighting in the dark. In Gregor the Overlander, he bonds with the flier Ares. He develops romantic feelings for Luxa, but their relationship does not progress much further than a first kiss in Gregor and the Code of Claw.
