Fiery,bull-headed & very prejudiced.
As you probably know,Juliet's cousin & his uncompromising nature led to HIS death,and indirectly to the deaths of the lovers,taking Mercutio along the way.
Guess he would be a knife-carrier today.
Mercutio describes Tybalt as a skilled duelist, hot-tempered, and proud. He sees Tybalt as someone who is quick to anger and not afraid to fight.
"Kind" and "helpful" are not words you use in the same sentence as "Tybalt". He wasn't kind or helpful to anyone, especially not to Romeo.
Mercutio. According to Mercutio, Tybalt is "the very butcher of a silk button."
Tybalt is her cousin. Romeo is her husband. Her mother and her nurse are angry at Romeo for killing Tybalt. Should she be angry also or stick by her man?

Tybalt, the prince of cats. Juliets father does not allow retaliation in his home because Romeo is considered to be a man in good standing and it would disgrace the host also. Tybalt says that he will not "endure" Romeos pressence only to be told he will because the man of the house says so and Tybalt is not that man
Basically they were spoiling for a fight. Tybalt was looking for Romeo in order to fight him, but Romeo didn't want to fight Tybalt. Mercutio didn't like Tybalt at all and was looking for a chance to fight him. He used the situation as a pretext to challenge Tybalt, who was not a man to turn down anyone's challenge.
Tybalt was asking for a fight with Romeo. Since he was married to Juliet and Tybalt was now his cousin, he refused to fight him. Then Mercutio asked to fight Tybalt and in a way kind of tempted him to fighting. Tybalt ended up killing Mercutio because Romeo got in the way when trying to stop the fight between the two. So now Romeo is angry that his friend Mercutio is dead and Tybalt doesn't have a scratch. So, Tybalt and Romeo fight and Romeo kills Tybalt.
According to quantum mechanics everything is a wave.
Tybalt is the son of Juliet's mother's brother, and is a pretty obnoxious young man, a guy with a chip on his shoulder, always looking for a fight.
Romeo denies Tybalt's challenge to a fight. He does this because he has just been married to Juliet and now sees Tybalt as family although Tybalt doesn't because he does not know nor will he ever know. Romeo tells Tybalt he will not fight because he loves him.
Mercutio says to Tybalt: "Tybalt, you ratcatcher, will you walk?", which is the equivalent of saying "How would you like to step outside and discuss this?". It's a challenge. Challenges often result in fights.Tybalt says "I am for you" which means "You're on." It may seem odd that he says "I am for you" when he is really against him, but that's just the way the language goes. It's like saying, "If you want to fight, I'm your man." If you are your opponent's man, what are you fighting for? Tybalt means "I am the man for you."
