Who are the characters in The Most Dangerous Game?
Ivan, Rainsford, Zaroff, WhitneyThe characters of the most dangerous game are:Ivan, Sanger Rainsford and General Zaroff.Ivan Ivan is the deaf and dumb assistant to General Zaroff. He is extremely large and seems to enjoy torturing and murdering helpless captives. Indeed, Zaroff uses the threat of turning his huntees over to Ivan if they will not comply with his desire to hunt them; the huntees invariably choose to be hunted rather than face the brutal Ivan. Ivan, like Zaroff, is a Cossack - a Russian who served as a soldier to the Russian Czar in the early 1900s. Ivan dies as the result of one of Rainsford's traps.Sanger RainsfordAfter hearing gunshots in the darkness, Sanger Rainsford falls off a yacht into the Caribbean Sea. "It was not the first time he had been in a tight place," however. Rainsford is an American hunter of world renown, and is immediately recognized by General Zaroff as the author of a book on hunting snow leopards in Tibet. While he shares both an interest in hunting and a refined nature with Zaroff, Rainsford believes Zaroff s sport to be brutal and Zaroff himself to be a murderer. As the object of the hunt, Rainsford constantly attempts to preserve his "nerve" and uses his knowledge of hunting and trapping to elude Zaroff. Rainsford becomes terrified, however, as Zaroff outwits him (but allows him to live) and toys with him as if he were a mouse. Having already killed Zaroff's assistant, Ivan, and one of Zaroff's dogs, Rainsford surprises Zaroff in his bedroom. Rainsford refuses to end the game there, however, and kills Zaroff. Rainsford then spends a comfortable night in Zaroff's bed, which raises the question of whether he will simply replace the evil Zaroff.General ZaroffGeneral Zaroff greets the stranded Rainsford by sparing his life, but later hunts him and attempts to kill him. Zaroff is distinguished by a "cultivated voice," fine clothes, the "singularly handsome" features of an aristocrat - and an obsession for hunting human beings. He has established a "palatial chateau" in which he lives like royalty with his servant Ivan, his hunting dogs, and his stock of prey - the poor sailors unlucky enough to end up on the island. Zaroff's decoy lights indicate "a channel. . . where there is none" and cause ships to crash into the rocks off the coast of his island. He captures the shipwrecked sailors and forces them to play his game or be tortured and killed by Ivan. Zaroff toys with Rainsford, declining to murder him three times to prolong the game. To him, the life and death struggle is little more than a game and, while insulting Rainsford's morality, he asserts that his embrace of human killing for sport is very modern, even civilized. Zaroff, like Ivan, is a Cossack and "like all his race, a bit of a savage"; yet he also claims a past as a high-ranking officer for the former Tsar of Russia. Zaroff's refined manners, and poised and delicate speech contrast with his brutal passion.Sanger Rainsford: He is an American big-game hunter and author who saw action in France in the First World War. He exhibits no pity or sympathy for the animals that he hunts. Ironically, he himself becomes a hunted animal after he arrives on a mysterious island. Rainsford is the protagonist, or the main character of this story. Whether his experience on the island changes his attitude toward hunted animals is open to question.General Zaroff: Russian big-game hunter from an aristocratic family in the Crimea, a Ukraine peninsula that was part of Russia until recent times. Zaroff is bored with killing typical game such as tigers, elephants, and water buffalo. Instead, he hunts the ultimate trophy animal: man. Zaroff, a Cossack, commanded a cavalry division in the Russian army until the Bolsheviks revolted in 1917 and installed a communist government that abolished aristocracy and the class system. Zaroff went off then and established a new world for himself on a remote Caribbean island. There he maintains his aristocratic lifestyle in his palatial home while pursuing his barbaric hobby. One might call him a civilized savage.Whitney: Rainsford's hunting partner.Ivan: Zaroff's Russian servant and hunting partner. Like Zaroff, he is a Cossack. Ivan is a giant, the biggest man Rainsford has ever seen. Because he is a deaf mute, Ivan hears no evil and speaks no evil but simply does Zaroff's bidding.Neilsen: Captain of the yacht taking Rainsford and Whitney to Brazil. He is referred to but plays no active role in the story.Crewmen of the San Lucar:Shipwrecked sailors held captive in Zaroff's cellar. The general plans to use them as quarry. They play no active role in the story.By: Pu3 (...pOeTRy...)
