Character- Mr. Summers.

Description- Runs the lottery.

Additional Details- It is obvious that he is a leader by the way the town listens to his directions in preparing for the lottery.

Character- Mr. Bill Hutchinson.

Description- The husband of the unlucky winner of the lottery.

Additional Details- He seems very supportive of the lottery's process and willingly showed his blank paper. He also "forced the slip of paper out of her hand", signifying his full cooperation and acceptance of the ritual.

Character- Mrs. Tessie Hutchinson.

Description- The unlucky victim or 'winner' of the lottery.

Additional details- She was happy to be involved in the annual ritual and wouldn't miss it. But when the lot fell on her family, she finds fault in it.

Explanation:

Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" revolves around the annual ritual of a village where a 'winner' gets chosen to be 'stoned to death' as a sacrificial lamb. The story delves into the theme of why it is dangerous to blindly follow the rituals or traditions established.

The characters Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson are the main protagonist of the story around which the story develops and revolves around. Bill Hutchinson is the husband of the unlucky victim Tessie Hutchinson. While she seems supportive of the ritual, she changed her stance by accusing the process of being "unfair" once the lot fell on her family. Bill, on the other hand, is fully accepting of the result, even forcing the paper off of Tessie's hand and also telling her to "shut up" when she accuses the "unfair' process.
