In the course of five acts, his father is murdered, his sister goes crazy, and he tries to kill the prince in a duel with a poisoned sword but later ends up being killed by it instead. Not bad for a somewhat minor Shakespearean character whose major speech is a warning to his sister that contains the lines, "Perhaps he loves you now/And now soil nor cautel doth besmirch/The virtue of his will, but you must fear/His greatness weighed, his will is not his own/For he himself is subject to his birth." FTP, name the character, Ophelia's brother who dies fighting Hamlet.
