2nd Character Analysis: Robin (The Hobgoblin)

In this segment of A Midsummer Night's Dream, Robin is seen throughout the scenes. He is manipulating much of what goes on from scene to scene with his love flower nectar, causing all sorts of trouble and making people fall in love with those they truly do not. He exhibits signs of sociopathic behavior in the sense that he plays tricks on people and plays with their lives in order to please himself and to do his master's(Oberon) bidding. With caulous disregard for the feelings and well-being of others he does as he is commanded and whatever catches his fancy. He is simply a trickster at heart gaining pleasure from others folly.
