He awakens one morning to find he has transformed into a “monstrous insect.” In his attempt to discover the killer of Laius, he says to his people, “I fight in his defense as for my own father.” A drunkard at a feast suggests to Oedipus that this person might not be his real father; indeed, he is not, even though he raised Oedipus as his own son.  He was killed at the place where three roads meet, a crossroads, reportedly by robbers (not a single robber). After Gregor’s metamorphosis, this person gets a job wearing “a smart blue uniform with gold buttons of the sort worn by porters in banking establishments.” This creature had the head of a woman, body of a lion, an eagle’s wings, and the head of a serpent. If you couldn’t answer its riddle, it would eat you. This woman hangs herself after realizing that she is Oedipus mother (as well as his wife). He had set aside 400 francs for a new shotgun, but gave that money to his wife instead so that she could buy a new dress.   She throws on the table the invitation her husband brought home, muttering, “What do you expect me to do with this?” This person tells Gregor that one possible reason for his absence that morning might pertain to the “cash payments” that Gregor was “recently entrusted with.” He tells Gregor that his “position is anything but secure. The new ruler of Thebes at play’s end, he says he will grant Oedipus’s wish to be banished only after consulting the Gods. By the end of the novella, she has totally changed in her attitude about Gregor, calling him “this creature” and saying “It has to go.” This person is not afraid of Gregor, and actually says to him, “Hey, over here, you old dung beetle!” He brings news to Oedipus about the death of Polybus; he also was the shepherd who took the baby Oedipus from one of Laius’ shepherds on Mount Cithaeron It is from this person that Mathilde borrows the necklace that will spell her doom. Gregor plans to send her to the Conservatory next year, regardless of the great expense that it would entail. His name in Greek translates as “swollen foot,”; his ankles were pierced when he was a baby. She gets a job sewing women’s undergarments for a dress shop as a way to make some extra money. After seeing Gregor, they give their notice immediately, and expect they will not pay a cent for the rooms they had rented. He has a picture in his room that he clipped form a glossy magazine of a lady in a fur hat with a fur boa.  This woman, by an “error or destiny,” was born into a family of “clerks and copyists.” She ends up marrying a “minor clerk in the ministry of education.” Oedipus thinks this blind prophet is working against him with Creon. In order to pay for the lost necklace, he borrows from anyone he can, including “a whole tribe of loan sharks.”  He “compromised himself for the remainder of his days.” He tells Oedipus that he doesn’t have “a frantic yearning to be king,” but loves being able to have all the perks of a king without the worry.
