In his books, Wodehouse created hundreds of characters. Some appear in only one book; others recur throughout the canon. Some — eg Jeeves, Bertie Wooster and the Empress of Blandings — are almost as well known as their creator.
This page lists all the characters who appear in the stories. Use the alphabetic index to help you find your way around: each character is indexed under first name, surname and, where appropriate, nickname, so it shouldn't matter which you choose.
If the character plays a significant part in one or more stories, the link will take you to a thumbnail sketch, illustrated with quotes from the books. For minor characters, the link is to the synopsis of the story in which the character appears.
