The idea

The unnamed narrator is in the events and is not their subject, which makes him the glossary's first-person minor-character type. The glossary's word gossip fits him poorly, which is why entry 0906 marked that word as the anchor's colouring rather than part of the definition.

In practice

Minor-character, and no gossip.

Where people slip

The anchor's colouring fails this case.
