Paris

Count Paris is a major character and the climax antagonist of Shakespeare's tragedy play Romeo and Juliet. He is a noble of Verona who seeks Juliet's hand in marriage, despite her disgust towards him, truly becoming an active threat in the fifth and final act, when he attempts to slay Romeo.
== Personality ==
In some productions of the play, Paris can be seen as naive, unsuspecting and generally unaware of Juliet's discomfort. However, he can just as soon be interpreted as a controlling, disrespectful chauvinist who values Juliet less as a person, and more as a prize bound to him by law.
