Lord of the Flies characters (spoiler)
(solved&updated)
Ralph - answer The elected leader of the boys and the main protagonist. He is neither the
smartest nor the strongest but has a kind of quiet charisma and good looks. He tries to keep the
boys focused on domestic order and the rules of civilization but loses his authority and almost
his life to Jack's seizure of power.


Piggy - answer Subject of the group's ridicule for his weight, asthma, and general lack of physical
prowess or stamina. He provides the brains of the group, as well as the spectacles necessary to
start the fire. Loyal to Ralph and all he represents, His death leaves Ralph alone, pitted in social
isolation against Jack's tribe.


Jack - answer The leader of the choir/hunters. Already militant as a choir leader, He leads his
group of choirboys-turned-hunters in mutiny against Ralph's leadership by playing on the boys'
baser instincts. He favors hunting and its savage reward of meat over the civilized domesticity
and hope for rescue that Ralph tries to maintain.


Simon - answer The visionary of the group. Given to fainting spells and spending time alone in
the jungle, he is considered odd by the other boys. Only he understands the true nature of the
beast they fear, and only he has the courage to investigate the eerie creature sighted on the
mountain. Before he can reveal what he has learned, he is killed in a tribal ritual gone too far.


Roger - answer A sly, secretive boy who displays, early on, a cruelty toward the weak and
vulnerable. Once joining Jack's tribe, he becomes the hangman, causing Piggy's death, torturing
Samneric (Sam and Eric) until they join the tribe, and preparing a stick on which to mount
Ralph's head.


Sam and Eric - answer The twin boys who are in charge of keeping the signal fire going. Until
they are captured by the tribe, they remain loyal to Ralph. They speak as one, often finishing
each other's sentences, so that the other boys pronounce their two names as one word.
