He is the cousin of Macduff. He is a messenger who delievers good and bad news. Ross is seen by some people to be a witch, this is because he praises Macbeth then shortly after he says " the thane of cawdor began a dismal conflict" which ironically Macbeth becomes thane of cawdor and has dismal conflict with Macduff which he gets his head cut off.

He is of course the messenger that tells Macbeth that he is now Thane of Cawdor. He is also the messenger that tells Macduff that his family has been killed.
