can you tell the character sketch of Brobdingnag's queen's dwarf??

Gulliver's Travels is a travelogue, by Jonathan Swift. The travelogue is full of fantasy elements and dwarf is one among many such. The dwarf is employed in the court of Brobdingnag to entertain and amuse the queen. He is 30 feet tall and shortest among Brobdingnagians. Gulliver's position as the new "dwarf-entertainment" for the queen frustrates the dwarf. Gulliver is more shorter and thus more interesting for the queen. This new man takes place of the old dwarf at the court and becomes dear to the queen ,making the dwarf jealous. Once the dwarf pushed Gulliver into a bowl of cream. He was rescued but suffered suffocation due to the cream. Gulliver's revenge went futile. Once while walking in the garden Gulliver made a jest at the cost of dwarf, in return he had to snuffer the raining apples (each a size of barrel) from the tree branches. Thus Gulliver did not like the dwarf.
