The element of a Shakespearean tragedy that the character of Paris represent in Act V, Scene III of “Romeo and Juliet” is that:

an outside pressure that escalates a conflict .

When Romeo entered the tomb where Juliet lied dead, he discovers Paris too. He asks him to get away from the tomb, but he didn't leave the tomb. Paris and Romeo indulge themselves in a fight in which Paris is killed by Romeo. He takes Paris into Juliet's tomb and then drinks the poison. The character of Paris here is confined to increase the the pressure and intensity of the play.

evertheless he ought to be slow to believe and to act, nor should he himself show fear, but proceed in a temperate manner with prudence and humanity, so that too much confidence may not make him incautious and too much distrust render him intolerable.
