“The man whom he called Morgan—an old, gray-haired, mahogany-faced sailor—came forward pretty sheepishly, rolling his quid." (Treasure Island, pg 136). This quote most nearly represents the description of a round character only because the amount of detail is so vivid yet this character described is only a minor character but doesn't seem underdeveloped at all.
“The expression of his face as he said these words was not at all pleasant, and I had my own reasons for thinking that the stranger was mistaken, even supposing he meant what he said. But it was no affair of mine, I thought; and, besides, it was difficult to know what to do.” (Treasure Island, pg 36). |
For this quote, the circumstance being that this seems to be describing a round character because of all the detail surrounding , in this case the appearance of Bill, the man captain was looking out for. This shows more emotion of the character and developing him to be a form rather than just a mentioned character.

“That is all clear, and, I dare say, true enough," replied Doctor Livesey. "We take the risk, but we are not so ignorant as you believe us. Next, you say you don't like the crew. Are they not good seamen?” (Treasure Island, pg 152). This quote most nearly explains the limited amount of detail given to basically filler characters just to move the story along with new people who give just a little information but are not elaborated on to develop the character as a whole making he or she a flat character that doesn't change.
