The first impression which she gives us is that she is a responsible young girl who really cares about other people’s feelings and opinions. From the first pages of the book we can clearly see that when she was going to luau dance with her boyfriend, Adam, she glanced in the mirror and felt “too” Oriental, but then she asked herself, “But, wasn’t that what Adam liked?”.

Of all the pivotal characters in Hamlet, Ophelia is the most static and one-dimensional. She has the potential to become a tragic heroine -- to overcome the adversities inflicted upon her -- but she instead crumbles into insanity, becoming merely tragic. Ophelia is depicted as an obedient and tender-hearted young lady who willingly obeys her father. In this time Ophelia didn’t have very much power or equality as men. She is also very naive, defenseless, and loyal to the men in her life; which is why throughout the play it seems as though she never makes decisions for herself, they were always based on what others wanted.
