Elizabeth Proctor
Parris, because it will put his own life in danger
In Arthur Miller's "The Crucible," Elizabeth Proctor is unlikely to be hanged if found guilty because she is pregnant. The laws of the time allowed for pregnant women to be spared execution until after giving birth. This provides her a temporary reprieve, as the court would not execute her until her child is born, reflecting the societal views on motherhood and life during the period. Furthermore, her character's moral integrity and the community's shifting sentiments may also influence her fate.
I would say a "Protagonist", you deside, here is an excerpt and a site:= John Proctor = Witch Trial DefendantBorn: c. 1632Died: 19 August 1692 (execution by hanging)Birthplace: EnglandBest known as: The first man executed in the Salem witch huntsJohn Proctor was the real person who inspired a character of the same name in The Crucible, Arthur Miller's 1953 play about witch trials in Massachusetts. In 1692, doctors and ministers in Salem blamed Satan for a coma-like sickness affecting two village girls. More reported "afflictions" resulted in a trial of some two dozen citizens for witchcraft, largely based on the testimony of pre-teen girls. Proctor, a tavern keeper on nearby farmland, publicly criticized the hysteria and found himself accused. He was among 20 people executed for refusing to confess. Portrayed as 30 years old in The Crucible, he was really about 60. He had 18 children by three wives: Martha (died 1659), Elizabeth Thorndike (died 1672), and Elizabeth Bassett, also accused of witchcraft but spared execution because she was pregnant.* http://www.infoplease.com/biography/var/johnproctor.html
death
In Act IV of "The Crucible," Reverend Hale cries, "There is blood on my head!" At the time of this statement, Hale has come to counsel Christians whom are scheduled to die. If they admit to witchcraft crimes they did not commit, their lives will be spared. In the beginning of the piece, Hale is involved in the accusation and sentencing of many innocent people who refused to admit to the false crimes. Their deaths are weighing heavily on him by Act IV, and he is trying to save the lives of those that have not yet been killed.
Elizabeth's life will be spared because she is pregnant, and the baby is innocent.
