* Miss Havisham: Driven by the bitterness of her abandoned wedding, Miss Havisham seeks revenge on men, particularly through manipulating young Estella to break their hearts. She wants to inflict the same pain she experienced on others. However, it's debatable whether her actions constitute true revenge, as they are more rooted in a deep-seated resentment and desire for control.
* Estella: While not seeking revenge explicitly, Estella acts out the bitterness instilled in her by Miss Havisham. She deliberately breaks Pip's heart, mirroring the pain she herself has experienced. Her actions can be seen as a form of revenge against men and the societal expectations placed upon her.
* Abel Magwitch: Although he doesn't seek revenge on Pip directly, his backstory reveals that he was wronged by society and the legal system. This fuels his resentment and motivates his actions, including becoming a convict and later attempting to escape prison. He could be considered seeking revenge against the injustices he faced, although this is never explicitly stated.
* Orlick: While not a major character, Orlick harbors resentment towards Pip and seeks revenge for perceived slights. He's driven by jealousy and a desire for retribution, ultimately leading him to attempt to harm Pip and Estella.
It's important to note: The characters' actions are more complex than seeking straightforward revenge. They are often driven by personal trauma, societal pressures, and a desire for power or control. The theme of revenge is intertwined with themes of social injustice, love, and the corrupting influence of wealth and social class.
