Shakespeare Character Blog - Term 4

Why do my characters want their objective/now?

Second Lord to Duke Senior:
Second Lord to Duke Senior wants to be in company with 'Duke Senior' because, if he wasn't in company with him then he'd probably be in the clubhouse with 'Duke Frederick' and his Lords. There is conflict between them because 'Duke Frederick' originally banished Duke Senior out of the clubhouse, so I imagine that my character wouldn't want to be within company of Frederick.
When my character is sitting at the banquet with the other Lord, Duke Senior, 'Jacques' and 'Amiens', and 'Orlando' joins them, at first the Lord are defensive over this, in which they use their golf clubs in order to prepare to attack. The Lords then get the sign that they can join us at the banquet, and we then relax and reassure ourselves that they aren't there for trouble. The actions we've put together in this scene should be convincing to the audience so that they know that we're here to protect ourselves and 'Duke Senior', also, the fact that we then later allow them to 'come sit' with us at the banquet and drop all of our weapons, should show the audience that we are the good people as opposed to 'Duke Frederick' and his Lords.
First Page:
First Page wants to be happy and free in the forest because, without being happy and at ease within the forest, they'd probably be living in fear, because there are 'fools' in the forest. Therefore, the Page's approaches people in a polite way to get on the correct side of them in the first place, because the outdoors can be a place of danger, filled with thieves and people who are up to no good.
That's the reason why my character is always light-spirited and at ease with others, because they are living in the 'Forest of Arden' which consists of a lot of freedom.
