Haman The Agagite
Prime Minister of Shushan, Persia
Description
Haman "the Agagite" or Haman "the Evil" is the no-good-scum-bucket-right-hand man of the King. He convinces the king to let him be Prime Minister. Abusing his power, wherever he can, he orders everyone in the kingdom to bow down to him. When he approaches Mordecai the Jew and orders him to bow down, Mordecai refuses. Haman, in a rage, promises to kill off all the Jews at the gallows in two weeks. Haman meets his own demise when his genocide plans are stopped by Esther (the King's wife) who reveals that she, herself, is Jewish.

King and Ruler of Shushan, Persia
Description
King Achashverosh is the ruler of Ruler of Shushan, Persia though he would much rather feast and drink than govern. He decides to throw a 180-day party for the kingdom and decides to flaunt his wife Vashti around as the main event. When she refuses he banishes her from the kingdom and throws a Beauty Contest to find a new wife. He ends up falling in love with Esther who hides her true identity from him. When Esther reveals that she is Jewish and that Haman is trying to kill the Jews, the King realizes that he'd much prefer Esther in the kingdom over Haman and kills Haman instead. So I guess you could say, he's a good guy?

Everyone's favorite Dave.
Description
Dave is someone's sidekick. We're not sure whose though. Maybe the King's? Maybe Haman's? We're not really even sure how he got to be in the story of Purim. He literally showed up one day on the God's doorstep and said "Yo, can I be in the Book of Esther?!" God said "Sure, just don't fuck anything up." So, he just kind of stands there and is friendly. Don't you just wanna say "Hi, Dave!"? "Hi Dave"!

The Castle Guards
King Achashverosh's main protection.
Description
The guards are both King Achashverosh's best & worst protection. In the beginning of the story, the guards desperately want to see the King's wife ,Queen Vashti, dance in the nude. When Vashti refuses, one of the guards (whomever won "Rock, Paper, Sword" that day) gets to chop off her head. After the King marries his new queen, Esther, the guards expect the same type of "Royal Treatment" from the new Queen. The king has no interest in parading the queen around like a trophy wife, so the Guards get pissy. They try to plan a mutiny, but end up singing about it so loud that Mortechai, Esther's Uncle, overhears. Uncle Morty tells the King and The King quickly kills the disobedient guards. Bye Bye Guards!

The Narrator
Storyteller of The Book of Esther
Description
The Narrator is your host with the most, your Jew with the scadoo, your mensch with no stench. The Narrator is in charge of giving you low down on the Book of Esther. He introduces every major character. He encourages you to boo at Haman, cheer for Esther, and feel slightly uncomfortable around the king. He also determines yearly if Vashti should die that year or just be banished - it's a game time decision. Without the Narrator, there would be no story at all.
