Definitely the Black Pawn. When they reach the other side of the board, Pawns can become any piece except the king, thus symbolizing the whole point of going to Beacon; to better oneself and grow stronger.

That, and the Black pieces have always been my favorites. The first move has always been the hardest for me, so I prefer to simply react.
