Pechorin
He is a young, Russian officer serving time in the Caucasus. At 25 years of age, he feels as if his youth has already disappeared and that he has already experienced all that society and life have to offer. He is a man of many contradictions. He employs his handsome features, his charms, and his unusual honesty to manipulate and deceive others. He seeks to rid himself of boredom by creating chaos in others' lives. His actions lead to kidnappings, murders, and adulterous affairs.
Grushnitsky
He is 21 years old and has been in the Russian army for a year. He and Pechorin have a complicated relationship. They dislike each other, but they spend a great deal of time in each other's company.

Grushnitsky's association with Pechorin leads to his downfall: Pechorin steals the object of his affection, and then kills him in a duel.
Captain
He is a man whose sense of honor is skewed. At a ball, his female companion complains that Princess Mary has slighted her so he orchestrates an incident to humiliate Princess Mary. He turns against Pechorin when Pechorin thwarts his efforts to embarrass the young Princess. He later joins forces with Grushnitsky, and his distorted sense of honor contributes to Grushnitsky's death.
