\\\'\\\'Literature/{{Discworld}}\\\'\\\': I don\\\'t know if it\\\'s true to say Cohen is \\\"more greedy and overtly selfish\\\" than Conan. Cohen never cares much about money, taking the view that if you need some, you steal it, and if you have some, you spend it. (Hrun, on the other hand, despite \\\'\\\'looking\\\'\\\' more like Conan, gets called out by Liessa for his mercenary attitude. Then again, Conan\\\'s motive for adventuring was also frequently a pursuit of riches.) On the other hand, while I\\\'m sure he \\\'\\\'does\\\'\\\' love and support Conina (even if he did make her run a DeathCourse when she was five), it\\\'s not exactly a major part of his characterisation, given that Conina is never even mentioned in any book he appears in.

\\\'\\\'WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}\\\'\\\': \\\"Rumplestiltskin is portrayed as an evil wizard who tricks people into giving him what he wants\\\". Isn\\\'t that \\\'\\\'exactly\\\'\\\' what Rumplestiltskin is in the original fairy tale?

On the other hand, I\\\'m not sure it\\\'s really established that he \\\"genuinely loves and supports his daughter Conina\\\", given they never appear in the same book. It\\\'s more likely he does than that he doesn\\\'t, but it\\\'s also entirely possible that nobody has even told him she exists. (I think. I\\\'ll reread \\\'\\\'Sourcery\\\'\\\' and check what she says about him.)

A couple I\\\'m not sure about:
