Major Characters
- Tess: The principal protagonist of the series. Tess is a Switcher, and is fourteen at the time of this book.
- Kevin: Formerly a Switcher, Kevin has passed his fifteenth birthday by the time of this book, and therefore no longer possesses the ability to change his shape. At the end of Switchers, Kevin chose to take on the form of a phoenix for the rest of his life. He spends most of Midnight's Choice in this form, but reverts to being human at the end of the story.
- Martin: The book’s principal antagonist. Martin is a handsome, red-haired boy, and is only a few days away from his fifteenth birthday at the time of Midnight's Choice. After the death of his father, Martin began to transform himself into a vampire so as to avoid dealing with the pain of this loss.
- Elizabeth "Lizzie" Larten: An elderly former Switcher. In this book, she warns Tess that something evil (i.e. Martin's vampire self) has entered the city.

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or characters:
“Self-esteem evolves in kids primarily through the quality of our relationships with them. Because they can’t see themselves directly, children know themselves by reflection. For the first several years of their lives, you are their major influence. Later on, teachers and friends come into the picture. But especially at the beginning, you’re it with a capital I.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
“Philosophy is written in this grand book—I mean the universe—
which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.”
—Galileo Galilei (1564–1642)
