Inkheart

Meggie Folchart

Meggie Folchart is the main protagonist of the Inkworld trilogy. She is the daughter of Mortimer and Teresa Folchart, and the sister of an unnamed brother (born in Inkdeath). Described as tall and slender with long blond hair and blue eyes, Meggie is an avid bookworm like her father.

   * In the first book Inkheart, Meggie learns that her father can bring stories to life and is being chased by a man called Capricorn for this. She gets captured by Capricorn and Mo comes to save her. Together with her great-aunt Elinor, Dustfinger - a fire-eater, Farid - a boy called from a book, Fenoglio - the writer of Inkheart and a horned marten named Gwin, Meggie and Mo try to destroy Capricorn and his evil army.
   * In Inkspell, Meggie and Farid jump into the book and try to save Mo from an execution. Meggie has a brief romantic relationship with Farid.
   * In Inkdeath, Meggie follows the strolling players under the leadership of the Black Prince. The romantic relationship with Farid is shattered as Meggie feels betrayed by his inability to come see her due to his service to Orpheus. Meggie accompanies the Bluejay into Ombra Castle, begins a new relationship with a boy named Doria, and helps the strolling players to fend off an attack by the Milksop.
   * Meggie's father is Mortimer Folchart and he has the ability to read characters out of books, just like the power Meggie found of herself. Mo (also called Bluejay or Silvertongue) read his wife into Inkheart and was searching for a long time to finally find a copy to read Resa (his wife) out of it again. This was when Inkheart took off and the mysteries and the story unfolded of this magical land
