Orsino is a meloncholy and fickle minded Duke.

Malvolio is a Puritan. He is humourless and disapproving. He is also extremely vain.
Twelfth Night
The main character in Shakespeare's play Twelfth Night is Viola. It is not uncommon for the female lead to be the main character of Shakespeare's comedies. It happens in As You LIke It, All's Well that Ends Well, and Cymbeline as well.

Because of a duel he fought with another character.
