Have you ever read the tragic story Romeo and Juliet? Well in this story there is a hot-tempered, arrogant, and prideful person named Tybalt. The character was interesting because he basically created the whole entire conflict in this story. This is an arrogant character just looking for a fight.

            Tybalt is a hot-tempered man full of rage. He is so hot-tempered that he fights Benvolio even though he wasn’t threatened. “What, art thou drawn among these heartless hinds? Turn thee, Benvolio, look upon thy death.” (Shakespeare).

            He is the most arrogant character in the story. He is so arrogant that in the beginning of the story Benvolio tried to stop the feud between Montague’s and Capulet’s. But the fiery Tybalt attacked Benvolio. “What, drawn, and talk of peace! I hate the word, As I hate hell, all Montague’s, and thee” (Shakespeare).

            Tybalt is also a prideful man throughout the story. He so prideful that when Romeo struck a death blow to him. He asked for no help but just laid there ready to die. He’d rather die than ask for help from the Montague.
