Which Shakespearean Protagonist Are You?

You are Hamlet, Shakespeare's Prince of Denmark who is tormented by his father's murder. Hamlet is known for his seven soliloquies, which pretty much means he likes to talk and to think a lot about what is going on in his life. You are Hamlet because you are a smart and introspective person. You think deeply about problems and never make rash decisions. You also have a strong moral compass and get deeply disturbed by people not acting in just ways.

You are Othello, Florence's Army General who sets off tragic events after getting taken advantage of by the villainous Iago. You and Othello have a lot of great qualities in common. You are both trusting, honest, and respected. Othello is a military leader, and you are also a great leader and are not afraid to stand up for what you believe in and for yourself whenever you need to. You defy people's expectations and always succeed.

You are Juliet from the famous tragedy "Romeo and Juliet." Juliet is a young teenager who rebels against her family's wishes for her to marry Count Paris and carries on a secret affair with Romeo, ultimately killing herself when she finds him dead. Juliet is the most complex character in the play. Like her, you are wise and mature beyond your years. You are passionate and loyal. You are your own person, even when you need to stand up for yourself against those you really love.

You are Viola, the young woman who disguises herself as a eunuch, Cesario, after being shipwrecked in a foreign country in "Twelfth Night." Viola is rational and normal compared to the ridiculous other characters in this comedy. You are Viola because you are smart, resourceful, and witty. You are charming and have an all-around great personality, and also know how to keep your emotions under control. You are brave and can get through any sticky situation.

You are Portia from "The Merchant of Venice." Portia is a heroic character who is known for being beautiful and smart. You have both of these qualities, and you are also kind, gracious, and playful. You are witty and know how and when to make a good joke. You usually have good control over your emotions, but when it comes to love, you can go a little crazy. You fall in love quickly and hard, but this is not necessarily a bad thing!

You are the beloved Beatrice from the comedy "Much Ado About Nothing." Like Beatrice, you have a great sense of humor and often use comedy to cover your true emotions. You are clever and talkative, and definitely would not stand for being silenced in a society that repressed women. You are not afraid to be yourself and stand up for yourself in all situations.
