Some characters are Beowulf, Wealhtheow, Hrothgar, and Grendel. Wealhtheow was shown to be lighthearted and was the Queen of the Danes, husband of Hrothgar. Hrothgar is the brave and humble king of the Danes. Beowulf is described to be like every other man and has bad eyesight from being stung in the eyes by bees. Although he is mostly good, he has some bad too. Unferth is gross and ungrateful and slowly loses his sanity through the book. Grendel is the first enemy of the book described to be a big slimy/hairy green creature. He has a hunger for flesh and constantly attacked Hall Heorot. Grendel's Mother, the She Serpent was almost like Grendel, but a serpent-humanoid.She is so terrible that she couldn’t be named. After Grendel was killed, she took Unferth, killed him and went to hide back in her fen. Two important places in the story are Hall Heorot and the Fen. Hall Heorot by day would glow brighter than the sun and was a beautiful sight, but by night it is dark and brooding. The Fen is a swampy pond of red waste and stretched as far as the eye could
