Harrison Provost

Harrison Provost is a side character in The Demon's Light. He started off as a young boy just short from reaching teenagehood. Although he starts off as a villain and a follower of the Demon, he has a change of heart and becomes good at the end of the first half of the story.

Background
Harrison and his older brother, who was also originally a follower of the Demon, were born in an unknown town. It is unknown how or why they ended up in the Barn, although it is implied that they lost their parents at a young age, and that the Demon took them both in, which they both accepted, as they felt that being allied with the Demon would help them to get over their losses and to achieve their goals at the time.

Neither Harrison nor Piercy were aware that their father Mr. Provost was still alive. Much less did either of them realise that it was actually the Demon who murdered their mother, as neither of them knew at the time that Xeren and the Demon were the same person.

Before Harrison and Piercy switched to the good side, the latter had a tendency to be slightly manipulative towards the former, which is evident when Harrison started to show signs of wanting to leave the Demon and join the good side, he pushed him into remaining on the Demon's side. Piercy's manipulative ways were ceased when he himself began to have second thoughts about his allegiance with the Demon.

In some ways Harrison and Piercy's relationship was sort of comparable to Harry's initial relationship with his maternal cousin Dudley Dursley, except Harrison and Piercy's relationship was still mostly positive, so in a way these relationships are comparable, yet non-comparable.

Physical appearance
Harrison is 12 years old, 1.45 metres tall, and weighs 40 kilograms. He was 11 years old at the beginning of the story but is now 12. He has dark brown hair, hazel eyes, and a pair of round, gold-framed glasses.

Personality
At the beginning of the story, Harrison came across as quite devious and cunning. He initially despised happy families, as a result of losing his parents at a young age. However, during the first half of the story, he has a change of heart, as the good sides of him reawaken. However, he doesn't properly reform until the end of the first half of the story.

After he reformed, Harrison was shown to be quite a brave, loyal, and selfless person. He has always been considered to have a quirky sense of humour, as well as quite a big personality.

Harrison is generally shown to be the more thoughtful, flexible, and cautious of the two brothers, being the first to discover the greater amount of benefits to being good than being evil. Because of these traits, he is or at least appears to be the more intelligent of the brothers.
