Ram (pronounced Rahm)-First son of Dasharath and only son of Kaushalya, husband of Sita, brother of Lakshman, Shatrughan, and Bharat, mortal reincarnation of Lord Vishnu, born upon the Earth to kill off the evil demon Ravan and reestablish the power of the gods over the demons. He is exiled for fourteen years by his sad and unwilling father. Eternal and stout follower of dharma, or righteousness, and loves Lakshman (like a brother) more than anyone.

Sita (pronounced Seehta)-The Wife of Ram, adopted daughter of Janak and Sunaina, sister of Urmila, cousin of Shrutakirti and Mandavi, mortal reincarnation of Goddess Lakshmi

Ravan(pronounced Rahvun)-Evil Demon who kidnaps Sita. SPOILER ALERT!!! Will eventually face death at the hands of Ram, though I figured everyone expected that.

Lakshman-Third eldest son of Dasharath and first son of Sumitra, husband of Urmila, brother to Ram, and Bharat and twin brother to Shatrughan. Mortal reincarnation of Seshnag, Vishnu's loyal (king of the serpents) servant. He will accompany his brother and sister-in-law into their exile, and ensure their safety and survival, sadly leaving behind his wife. Ram is always first in his mind. I include waaaaay too much of him in this story, since he is my favorite character.

Bharat-Second eldest son of Dasharath and only son of Kaikeyi, husband of Mandavi, brother of Ram, Lakshman, and Shatrughan

Bharat-Second eldest son of Dasharath and only son of Kaikeyi, husband of Mandavi, brother of Ram, Lakshman, and Shatrughan. Out of pure devotion to his brother, when he is offered the crown by his scheming mother who exiled Ram for fourteen years, he refuses.
