Simon Yeager

Simon Yeager aka Wolf is a character in The Ashes Trilogy. He is key to the storylines in Shadows and Monsters, and appears briefly at the end of Ashes. He is the identical twin of Chris Prentiss, described as having jet-black hair and eyes with high, sharp cheekbones. The only difference between the pair is that Simon has a scar trailing from just below his ear round to his neck crossing over his Adam's apple. Chris and Simon were unaware of each others existence until later in the series. Alex describes his scent as: "behind that roadkill reek: a misty swarm of shadows from the deepest woods on the coldest, darkest nights". However behind that smell he also had Chris's scent off: "sweet, crisp apples". His description in the 'Cast of Characters' at the end of the last book reads:
'Wolf: the nickname Alex has given to the leader of a band of Changed, who also just happens to be Chris's identical twin (and of whose existence Chris is unaware). Although Wolf seems by turns attached and attracted to Alex and protects her from ending up as a Happy Meal for the rest of his crew (Beretta, Acne, Slash, and Spider), Alex can't decide if Wolf is only saving her for dessert.'

==Early Life==
Simon Yeager is from one of the founding families of Rule and he lived there before the EMP hit. He hung out with the kids from Rule, including the other founding families grandchildren. He obviously didn't know he had a brother and lived with his mother Emily Yeager (as Chris Prentiss lived with their father). Alex notices that in the picture at the Yeagers holiday house he has his arms around Peter Ernst, it is suggested that the way they are laughing with eachother they must have been very close and had something of a brother-like bond.

*Ashes
​Simon appears briefly at the end of the book when Alex escapes from Rule and finds herself in a feeding ground for the Changed. Alex is approached by five Changed, three boys and to girls, who are described as wearing parkas, boots and gloves. One boy and one girl are also noted to be wearing wolf skins 'pulled down so their eyes peered from a wolf's face'. This is where the nickname 'Wolf' originates. 
*Shadows
​Simon is the leader of a pack of Chuckies which included Spider, Acne, Slash, and Beretta. They wear wolf cowls that can be drawn back as a hood. After traveling for some time he takes them back to his families summer lake house. He disappears into the woods for several hours with Spider and Beretta. Later Daniel reveals that he and his pack were going to kill a large wolf ritual style, but Spider betrayed him after Leopard's gang defeated a pack of Spared intent of saving Alex. Spider grabbed Leopard's gun and went to shoot Wolf, but he was already running before she was completely turned around. He made it to the tree line, but he was hit. Spider wanted to go after him, but she was stopped by Beretta.
Several weeks later just as Alex was about to enter the Yeager mines. She, Spider, and Leopard caught a whiff of Wolf's scent. Af first Alex thought it was Chris, but realized it was Wolf. Spider's scent was described as furry and annoyance, but reeked of dread. She and Leopard were worried about his return.
Tom spots Wolf with six other changed making their way toward Alex's location. Shortly he and his companions are driven off after they get closer.
*Monsters
In Monsters we are given Simon's story, piece by piece, which revealed how he came to get his scar. Also the story of a boating accident involving him, Peter and Peter's sister Penny (who we find out was also Changed). We get these through Peter, who is one of main narratives in this novel as he loses his sanity and begins talking to Simon in his cell. After the mine explosion, he takes Alex to a boat house where a pregnant Penny is living. Wolf and and another group of Changed seem to be acting as her carers. When they are attacked by Finn's men, Alex escapes while Wolf and Penny are captured. They all later meet again in Rule during the final battle. When Yeager dies, Alex spots Simon crouched by his body and Penny hovering near by. When she's shot, Wolf held Alex before reluctantly handing her over to Tom. Chris tells him to run, and this is all the interaction the twins get. At the end of the book Simon reappears at the group's camp in the Waucamaw in the middle of the night. Alex is unsure what to do, knowing that if he stays he would likely either kill her friends or be killed to protect them. She then places half a chocolate bar on the ground between them and waits to see what happens. Ending the series on a cliffhanger.
