  • Morgan Le Faye - <em>the trickster </em>
  • Bertilak of Hautdesert - <em>the hospitable host </em>

Explanation:

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a story written in 14th-century England about romance and chivalry. Some of the characters were;

Sir Gawain who was the nephew of King Arthur and one of his best and most loyal knights who prided himself on being chivalrous. He was the hero on a quest but by the end of the quest he was a humbled man who did not believe that he can ever be the man he wished to be.

Bertilak's wife was a temptress who tried to seduce Sir Gawain three times during his stay at the castle where he spends Christmas. She is presented as a beautiful and intelligent woman.

Morgan Le Faye was the trickster who controlled the events of the poem in the hope that she could cause much discord for her half-brother King Arthur and his kingdom.

Finally, Bertilak of Hautdesert was the hospitable host who was Lord of the castle where Sir Gawain would spend Christmas. He was powerful and generous and exuded the courteousness of an aristocrat. In the end it is revealed that he infact was the Green Knight.
