Pedro Páramo (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) is a protagonist in Pedro Páramo.
Pedro Páramo is the powerful landowner and central force shaping Comala. He controls the town through wealth, intimidation, manipulation, and purchased religious forgiveness. His orders are carried out by Fulgor Sedano, while his influence reaches Miguel Páramo, Rentería, Dorotea, and Damasio, turning even revolution into another instrument of control. Juan Preciado (played by Tenoch Huerta Mejía) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Juan Preciado comes to Comala after his dying mother tells him to find Pedro Páramo and demand what is owed to them. He meets Abundio, lodges with Eduviges, and is guided by Damiana through a town where voices, memories, and the dead overwhelm the boundary between past and present. Eduviges (played by Dolores Heredia) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Eduviges gives Juan Preciado lodging when he arrives in Comala. Her house is filled with objects left by people who never returned, and she helps reveal that the town is haunted by unresolved souls. Through her connection with Juan and the town's memories, she becomes one of his first guides into Comala's supernatural reality. Damiana Cisneros (played by Mayra Batalla) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Damiana Cisneros guides Juan Preciado through the haunted remains of Comala and explains that she has known him since birth. She helps him understand that the town is filled with souls who died without forgiveness, while her presence connects Juan's personal search for Pedro Páramo with the community's accumulated memories and suffering. Fulgor Sedano (played by Hector Kotsifakis) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Fulgor Sedano is Pedro Páramo's trusted agent and carries out his orders across Comala. He handles intimidation, enforces Pedro's authority, and deals with the aftermath of a death connected to Pedro's power. His actions show how Pedro governs indirectly, using loyal subordinates to protect his wealth and influence. Dorotea (played by Giovanna Zacarías) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Dorotea is connected to Miguel Páramo's sexual misconduct and admits that she arranged encounters between him and young women. By facilitating Miguel's behavior, she becomes part of the household's culture of exploitation and silence. Her testimony also exposes how Pedro Páramo's family and servants help preserve the power surrounding him. Miguel Páramo (played by Santiago Colores) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Miguel Páramo is associated with serious crimes that are enabled by people around him, including Dorotea. His behavior reflects the impunity created by Pedro Páramo's power and the hypocrisy of the household. Through Miguel, the story shows how Pedro's influence protects wrongdoing and spreads violence beyond his own direct actions. Abundio (played by Noé Hernández) appears in Pedro Páramo.
Abundio is another son of Pedro Páramo and the first significant person Juan Preciado encounters on the road to Comala. He leads Juan toward the apparently abandoned town and tells him that Pedro died many years earlier. His guidance begins Juan's movement from an ordinary search into a world shaped by memory and the dead.
