Minor characters from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
There are many minor characters in the various versions of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams. In fact, defining a major character is rather difficult. If the major characters are those the plot focuses on, they are Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Zaphod Beeblebrox, Marvin and Trillian, with the possible inclusion of Slartibartfast, Prostentic Vogon Jeltz, Random Dent and Fenchurch. If they are defined as characters appearing in all the books, they are only Ford Prefect and Arthur Dent. In this case, the definition of major characters will be those in the series with major plot significance not appearing on this list.
Trin Tragula
Trin Tragula was a speculative philosopher who invented the Total Perspective Vortex to annoy his wife. His wife thought he was an idiot who needed to "have some sense of proportion." When he attached his wife to the Total Perspective Vortex, the shock of seeing herself in relation to the rest of the universe annihilated her brain. Although he was horrified by this, Trin Tragula found some satisfaction in discovering that the one thing that a person "cannot afford to have is a sense of proportion."
