Are there books with characters like these? Does this trope have a name? Why are they so likeable?
Snufkin is from a series of books.
>>24819666Cursed. And I mean good literature, not children's stories, light novels or manga.
>>24819677Hesse's Demian was very likeable for me. Knulp too.
>>24819649>Why are they so likeable?>snufkin>does whatever he wants, including vandalism and radical activism>fucks off to the south when winter is a around the corner>self sustaining>not a cunt, chill even.>has a nicotine product in his name
>>24820823have you played his game?
>>24819649Like a lone, neutral, stoic, point of view wanderer? I guess novels might focus too much on interiority to have many characters like that? Or a lack of real world situations where people behave like that? I guess Ishmael in Moby Dick a bit? Or various "memoir of kooky people I have met" nonfiction like James Herriot

>>24821706Oh my lord... this all makes sense now...I had a legit schizophrenic episode in 2023 and started dressing like a full-blown nazi. Not like "skinhead stormfag" but would wear black leather jackboots and a brown shirt in public. I still have now idea WTF I was thinking at the time.And yet, it was the most attention I had ever had from women in my life.
>>24819649Walter Scott's "The Antiquary" has Edie Ochiltree, a very likable vagabond in this same mold of character.
