Tybalt

Tybalt

First Impressions:
Tybalt is aggressive, hot-tempered, and is quick to draw his sword or start a fight. Tybalt is the plays main antagonist and is threatening character to all the Montagues. He is very pessimistic and despises the Montagues. In the beginning scene he imediately draws his sword to start a fight with Benvolio but luckily the Prince arrives. (1.1) He would do anything to kill Romeo if not for his uncle Capulet (1.5). First Appearance: in 1.1.67-105 Tybalt was trying to start a fight with Benvolio. He tries to insult Montagues. 1.1. 72-73 "As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee. Have at thee, Coward!"

Tybalt also appears in 1.5. He overhears Romeo talking and immediately asks for a sword. Capulet has a conversation with him trying to calm down Tyablt; lines 1.5.61-103 "This, by his voice, should be a Montague.--He enters with lines 1.5.61-62  Fetch me my rapier boy"

**I am what I say:**

Have at thee, Coward! 1:1:72-73 || I hate you, Montague like I hate hell. Let's fight, coward! || Tybalt is very high-strung and can be easily provoked into a fight. He hated the Montagues a lot and || Fetch me my rapier, boy. 1:5:61-62 || This voice I hear, must be a Montague Go get me a whip, servent || Tybalt sees Romeo at the party and decides to go and kill him, for only As Romeo and many other characters in the play do, Tybalt makes the quick, split-second decision to go and kill Romeo, only for being born a Montague || Come hither, cover'd with an antic face, To fleer and scorn at our solemnity? Now, by the stock and honour of my kin, To strike him dead, I hold it not a sin. 1:5:63-67 || Who dares to Come here, covered with To scorn our own Now for the honor of my kin around me, I will kill him, and it will not be a sin. ||  ||
