Maurice is one of the older boys who is in Jack's tribe. He is a boy who, in the beginning, isn't bad. In chapter 4, Maurice "...still felt the unease of wrongdoing," as he and Roger kick over the little boys' sandcastles. He has not become as savage as Roger or Jack yet. Earlier he had actually been helpful to the group in gathering wood, making suggestions about the signal fire, and amusing the little boys. By chapter 10, he has gone completely over to Jack's savage side when he helps Jack and the others steal Piggy's glasses, thus stealing fire and power.
