Lord of the Flies- Character Analysis (based on the first chapter) Ralph- after surviving what seems to be a plane crash, Ralph is the first character spotted on the scene. Surprisingly, without any sign of injury, Ralph trudges through the deep jungle and comes across another survivor of the crash. The two of them soon become aware of their surroundings as a deserted, tropical, island paradise and the adults are nowhere to be found. Ralph, the 12-year-old, fair-haired protagonist of the story is excited by this and decides to take a swim. Some would defend this by saying he is only a child but there is no excuse for his actions. Others on the plane could have been injured, but Ralph cannot think of anything but playing and his dad coming to rescue him.
