Elinor's love interest. Shy and reserved, but sincere.
Most see him as a dull young man who talks about dull things like weather. His conversation is often stilted or boring. He has difficulty expressing his emotions though he is very sensitive and empathetic. Not particularly intelligent or Romantic, he is unambitious and wants a quiet, uninteresting life. Constrained into this role by people's expectations, Ferrars secretly hopes for something better from life, but he doesn't know what. nOnce you get to know him he is affectionate and cheerful, and is capable of being quite passionate and loyal. He likes being employed, but as a gentleman this is looked at as unseemly. Therefore he reads voraciously--if you get him on a topic he is interested in he does not know when to shut up. He's got a goofy side and is surprisingly enthusiastic about whatever he is currently doing. Edward is unassuming and lacks confidence, but he has an open, simple nature. He hates keeping secrets, which makes his secret engagement to Lucy Steele even more irksome.
Edward Ferrars, not being one to enjoy hunting, sport or even riding all that much, has no martial ability whatsoever.
