A character paper on Othello, by Shakespeare

It seems fascinating that an interesting and clever character in a story, would be the villain, such is the case in Othello, by Shakespeare. As a moor, Othello has faced many challenges and prejudices throughout his life. When he becomes a soldier of high stature and honor, and weds, he receives the jealousy and envy of Iago, the villain. The story revolves around the mischievous acts of Iago, his evil plans of making himself better than Othello. Iago conceives a plan of making Othello doubtful and unsure about his wife, Desdemona.

Until then, for my imagination he is free and running around conspicuously among the crowd. Iago, is the kind of person, that never let his childhood go, in my opinion he just wanted to spice things up and see what he could get away with. But we can also picture a person who cared for nothing else than himself, clearly visualized when he murders his wife, to escape getting caught. Although, even if Emilia was to confess Iago's deeds,
