Oberon: A Midsummer Night's Dream

Oberon, the King of the Fairies, is a man of prestige with unusual powers and a mind that outwits his foes. In William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Oberon and his wife, Titania, are king and queen of all the fairies who inhabit the earth. In the story, Oberon comes into a few problems, which he handles quite peculiarly. He is a man who wants his orders carried out with strict obedience, but also has a nice side to him.

When someone disobeys Oberon he’s not going to let him or her get off the hook without some kind of punishment or retribution. When Titania decides she can get the best of Oberon he makes her look foolish. He anoints her eyes with a flower that will make her fall in love with the next thing she sees.
