Karna is one of the most important characters who play a key role in the Hindu epic poem, Mahabharata. Although growing up as a child who did not know his parents, Karna becomes an accomplished warrior and a gifted speaker. He eventually became the king of Anga, a region in Bengal, under Duryodhana and joined the forces of Duryodhana during the Kurukshetra war. He was supposed to kill the third Pandava Arjuna, but he eventually died in battle with him.

In the Mahabharata, Karna is shown to be a flawed but good man. After meeting his biological mother, he learns that his sworn enemies are his half-brothers but decides to continue being a loyal friend to Duryodhana. The character of Karna is a symbol of a man who is rejected by those who should love him but finds respect and love from the very people he should have stood against. Despite his shortcomings, he still manages to become a role model to many around him.

His character is often developed to raise and discuss major moral and ethical dilemmas. His story has inspired various works of Hindu literature, both in India and southeast Asia.
