In 'The Chrysalids', what is the name of the telepathic protagonist?

In “The Chrysalids,” the telepathic protagonist is David Strorm. John Wyndham’s 1955 novel is narrated by David, a boy growing up in Waknuk, a rigid post-apocalyptic farming community that persecutes anything considered physically or mentally abnormal.

David and a small group of children secretly communicate through telepathy. Their ability is dangerous to reveal because Waknuk’s religious authorities define deviations from an ideal human form as blasphemous mutations. David’s friendship with Sophie, a girl born with six toes, helps him recognize the cruelty behind these rules and question the beliefs enforced by his father, Joseph Strorm.

Several other names are central to the telepathic group. Rosalind is David’s close friend and fellow telepath, Petra is his younger sister whose unusually powerful ability exposes the group to danger, and Michael is another member who assists them during their escape. The group eventually makes contact with a more advanced society in “Sealand,” later revealed to be New Zealand, where telepathy is accepted rather than condemned.
