In novels, greedy characters can serve as antagonists. Take the character of Ebenezer Scrooge from 'A Christmas Carol' before his transformation. He was extremely greedy for money, hoarding it and not caring about the well - being of others around him. His greed made him cold - hearted and isolated. But his journey also shows how a greedy character can change when confronted with the truth about his actions.
Greedy characters are important in novels as they can drive the plot. Consider the character of Gollum in 'The Lord of the Rings'. His greed for the One Ring is all - consuming. His greed not only causes him to constantly scheme and plot to get the ring back, but it also makes him a pitiful figure. His internal struggle between his greed and his better self adds depth to the story.

๐I recommend the following novels to you. I hope they meet your requirements: 1. "The Western Kingdom War Emperor of the Primordial World": Although the main character, Li Zhan, was an Earthling, he was especially greedy. In the Primordial World, he had to face almost all the forces, but he was not invincible. He needed to grow step by step. 2. In "I'm in the Chaos Stacking System", the main character Chu Haoxuan was also very greedy. He kept getting rewards from the system and constantly improving his strength. He was not invincible and needed to cultivate hard. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~๐

He is surrounded by a group of expatriates who are also lost in the post - war world. Jake's character shows the disillusionment and aimlessness of a generation that has been through the horror of war.
