Group Role:
Tobias quickly became a symbol for the Animorphs, and of the deadly curse that their morphing power holds, after he became trapped as red-tailed hawk.
Out of all of the Animorphs, he is the one who has suffered with a most dramatic fate. After passing the 2 hour limit and being trapped as a Nothlit for the rest of his life, Tobias struggled for a long time with his place in the world, as neither a human, nor a hawk.
As a human, Tobias was a quiet person, often shy and easily picked on. With no family to take care of him, and being tossed back and forth between relatives, he quickly learned to take care of himself, and out grew from his shell to being more confident as he became part of the Animorphs. It is still uncertain as to whether his transformation as a Nothlit was intentional or not as a means to escape his human life, but his will to fight the the Yeerks still remained strong throughout the series
Eventually as the series carried on, Tobias achieved many notable tasks such as creating the first free Hork-Bajir Colony since the Yeerks enslaved the race. Through the Ellimist's help, he was able to bargain a deal and have his morphing ability returned to him and a chance to morph back to his original human self. Although Tobias could return back to being human permanently by passing the 2 hour limit again and by sacrificing his morphing ability, he chose not to in order to stay in the fight with the rest of the Animorphs.
Also, along with being united with an unexpected uncle (Ax) as Elfangor's son, Tobias was able to move on from his former human life and focus his sights towards the war. Tobias became willing to prove himself by being the Animorphs eye in the sky, often scouting for trouble, providing surveillance, and following known controllers during the day while the rest of the Animorphs stayed in school.
His fight alongside with the rest of the Animorphs made a difference in the generations to come, for both humans and hork-bajir alike.
