Othello.
These characters are from the play, Othello.
It's a play, not a book. It was not written to be read, but to be watched. The main characters in Othello are Othello, Iago, and Desdemona. Cassio and Emilia are also important to the plot, but are supporting roles.
The feelings of the characters change as the play develops. That's why it is a good play. Even Desdemona, who does not change much, reacts to the change in Othello with disbelief, shock and hurt. These are not feelings she has at the beginning of the play. Of course at all times she loves Othello very deeply, more deeply than anyone else can understand.
Iago is the antagonist in the Shakespearean tragedy, Othello. He is very vengeful, but seems to have no motives for the things he does to Othello and the other characters. In other words, he is a very flat, two-dimensional character.

Othello, the Moor of Venice, is the tragic hero of Shakespeare's play of the same name. In the twentieth century, some theaters refused to stage the play because it showed a Black man married to a White woman.
Desdemona slept with Othello in the play. And despite what Othello thought, he was the only guy she slept with.
