- Napoleon: Thinks he's invincible, but when his army fails for the first time, he understands the severity and sadness of battle
- Andrew: Thoughts of death plague him and he is shot at battle
- Pierre: He decides to join the army without knowing a thing about war. He doesn't understand how men fight without fearing death constantly
Important Theme: Blame
The French loss is blamed on Napoleon's cold- everyone has an impact on the way an event unfolds. Are things pre-destined or do we forge our own paths? Our actions surely have consequences and lead to the next path we will take.
