Kylie Galen is half human half supernatural. Even though she is at a camp for supernatural teens she still doesnt seem to fit in. Her brain pattern isn't clear so no one can tell what type of supernatural she is. She feels as if she is the outcast at this camp even if she has many friends. All Kylie wants is for her questions to be answered. She wants to know who she is, what type of supernatural species she belongs to.So far what she knows is that she has the power of ghost whispering, healing, and she is fast in running like a vampire.
Kylie has always felt like the "freak" at Shadow Falls camp. Unlike the other supernaturals there Kylie's brain pattern hasn't developed. Since her brain pattern can't be read none of them know what type of supernatural she is. Campers are always trying ro read her brain pattern to see if it has developed yet. Eventually Kylie starts to show signs that she might be a vampire when she drinks blood, but since her pattern is still unreadable she isn't sure of what she is exactly. The mystery of who she is exactly doesn't get any more easier to solve, when her father's ghost visits her and tells her she is a "chameleon".Kylie is confused on how a "lizard" is a type of supernatural. The thought of what exactly it means to be a "chameleon" just adds more question to her list. Soon enough her grandfather and aunt come to answer some of those questions. Her grandfather contacts her asking Kylie to meet with him. Kylie sneaks off camp grounds to meet with her grandfather. When they meet up at the cemetery she asks him what it means to be a "chameleon". Her grandfather answer to her that just like a chameleon changes colors a chameleon supernatural can change their pattern. That is because Chameleons are a rare supernatural species that has the DNA of all supernaturals mixed together. Kylie's question of what type of supernatural she is, is answered which only leads her to more on what else she is able to do.
The way that Kylie feel about herself is like insecurity. She is unsure of herself and who she is. The position that Kylie is in can be similar to a situation that people in real life face. This is because people often times have trouble figuring out who they are. They want to fit into a group but they don't know what group they belong to exactly. Like Kylie they have many questions that they have been seeking to answer. Also sometimes when they think that they might have figured out who they are or where they belong there is an obstacle in their way. For Kylie it was that she thought she could be a vampire when she drank blood and enjoyed it. Although her friends were pretty sure that she would turn out to be a vampire, Kylie still doubted that was what she was. What helped Kylie figure out who she was her grandfather and aunt. This can be similar to the real world because, sometimes people need help from someone close to them to figure out who they are. Then pretty soon they know who they are and where they fit in.
During the book Kylie has to go own her own journey to find out who she really is. Overcoming obstacles in her way she soon learns who she is and has been all along. This in the real life is like people that are unsure of who they are and are insecure about their identity. They all have a journey to face and obstacles to overcome, but at the end they find it was worth it all when their questions/doubts have been answered.
