Baron Danglars
Danglars was the purser on Edmond's ship, the Pharoan. He is a bitter, mean man who hates that Dantés became captain. He is twenty six or so at the beginning of the book with an arrogant expression and hair to his shoulders.
He immediately begins to try and get Edmond in trouble. He turns to Fernand and Caderousse to help him imprison Edmond. He sees Edmond receive a letter from their dying captain and turns him in as an ardent Bonapartist. They send Dantés to prison for more than a decade.
Then, Danglars succeeds in making himself rich. He began to work for a banker and contracted to furnish some of the army supplies. He himself then became a banker and married the daughter of a chamberlain, making himself a Baron. He lives exuberantly. He also is a fraud. He steals peoples money and does not treat people fairly. Edmond is able to gain Danglars' trust and then make him pay. He succeeds in taking the Baron's money and also helps his daughter run away. He also publicly humiliates Danglars by exposing his daughter's arranged husband as a criminal. Then, the greatest punishment of all is inflicted upon him. Edmond kidnaps him and forces him to pay millions for his food. In the end, Danglars almost starves but he repents and is let free. The greatest conflicts Danglars faces are internal. He sees his daughter leave him and watches his wife cheat on him. This all greatly weakens Danglars as he sees everyone he cares about be taken away from him, just like everyone was taken away from Edmond. He also watches his fortune disappear. In the end, Danglars disappears as a man who was spared but very wounded.
