Vikarna- The Kaurava who believes in Justice

In the Hindu epic [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindu_epic] Mahabharata [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahabharata], Vikarna was third Kaurava [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaurava], son of Dhritarashtra [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhritarashtra] and Gandhari [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gandhari_(character)] and a brother to the crown prince [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_prince] Duryodhana [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duryodhana]. Vikarna is universally referred to as the third-most reputable of Kauravas. Usually, he is also indicated as the third-oldest son, but in other sources, the "third-strongest" reputation remained and it is implied that Vikarna is just one of Gandhari's 100 children (after Duryodhana [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duryodhana] and Dussasana [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dussasana]). Vikarna was the only Kaurava [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaurava] who questioned the humiliation of Draupadi [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draupadi], the wife of his cousin Pandavas [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandavas] after they lost her in a game of dice to Duryodhana.
