Crooks  is very old. Crooks  is so named because of a crooked back caused by a kick from a horse. Crooks  is a man who takes care of the horses and lives by himself because he is the only black man on the ranch.  Crooks is a character used by  Steinbeck  to show the effects of discrimination. This time the discrimination is based on race, and Crooks is not allowed in the bunkhouse with the white ranch hands. He has his own place in the barn with the ranch animals. This time the discrimination is based on race, and Crooks is not allowed in the bunkhouse with the white ranch hands. He has his own place in the barn with the ranch animals. Candy realizes he has never been in Crooks' room, and  George 's reaction to Crooks being involved in their dream is enough to cause Crooks to withdraw his request to be part of the dream. Racial discrimination is part of the microcosm Steinbeck describes in his story. 

Geroge was Lennies brother basically even though they are friends but they bond like brothers George would say whatever is on his mind people assumed they were gay but they were good friends .George basically took care of Lennie ,Lennie is Retarted so George would always help him George was also smart and brave.

Lennie Small is huge and and, in many ways the opposite of  George Milton . Where George has sharp features and definite lines, Lennie is "shapeless." Often he is described in terms of animals. He lumbers like a bear and has the strength of a bear, but his actions are often described like those of a dog. Lennie's personality is like that of a child. He is innocent and mentally handicapped with no ability to understand abstract concepts like death. While he acts with great loyalty to George, he has no comprehension of the idea of "loyalty." For that reason, he often does not mean to do the things that get him into trouble, and once he does get into trouble, he has no conscience to define his actions in terms of guilt. Lennie only defines them in terms of consequences: "George is going to give me hell" or "George won't let me tend the rabbits." He is devoted to George like a dog is devoted to its master, and he tries to follow George
