Ebenezer Scrooge Ebenezer Scrooge was born in 1776 and died in the year of 1843. Ebenezer is a protaganist and at the begginging of the novel he is a heartless, cold uncaring man. He hates Christmas and all the people who celebrate it. "The cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose, shrivelled his cheek, stiffened his gait; made his eyes red, his thin lips blue; and spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice." He is a selfish and miserly old man who works as an Investment Banker and Commodities broker in London. Scrooge has no appreciation for fun and kindness, seeing it as a waste, and is hated by everyone else due to his nature. He has a particular hatred of Christmas (and the holiday season, in general), being the time of kindness and giving that it is.
