Laertes

Laertes is a lord of Denmark. The son of Polonius and Elise, and the older brother of Ophelia, he is set to inherit the position of duke when his father dies. He loves his sister more than anything and is very protective of her. He is an active political schemer, and bears a grudge against the royal family of Denmark, whom he perceives as unfit to rule. Aside from conspiring with Claudius to murder Hamlet, as in Shakespeare's play, in various routes he will strike out against Claudius himself, or attempt to convince the nobility to reject Hamlet's rule.
