Theban King Creon plays two main roles in the play 'Antigone'. Dramatically, he plays the role of the villain. Functionally, he plays the role of head of state.
At the beginning of the play "Oedipus Rex," Oedipus has sent Creon to the Oracle at Delphi to seek guidance on how to rid Thebes of the plague afflicting the city. He wants to learn the cause of the pestilence and how to restore order. Creon is tasked with obtaining the Oracle's prophecy to help Oedipus address the crisis facing Thebes.
The source of criminal activity to Creon's way of thinking is the role that money plays in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, there is no actual role played by money. There is just the role imagined by Theban King Creon. Creon believes that his powerful enemies bribe people who need money to engage in criminal activity against him and his royal rule.
Creon has decreed that her brother, and all of the other rebels, are to be left to rot on the battlefield without proper burial.
