Acts 15:37 "And
Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark."
The mentor character is
one that gives the protagonist advice and information. Usually the mentor is
older than the protagonist and has acquired wisdom.
The mentor does not
necessarily have to be older. If the protagonist is newly arrived in town, a
peer who has lived there her whole life may be able to fill the mentor’s role
in the story.
Rarely is the mentor younger than the protagonist. In science fiction and fantasy, it is possible to have a wise child character fill the mentor’s role, or perhaps a savant character in a modern story.
