Have you by chance read Dante's Divine Comedy? Or Milton's Paradise Lost? Just to name two works that are widely considered Fucking Classic off the top of my head. Do you have much background in literature?

And are they not in the public domain?

What's your point here, exactly?

One, those are famous works that used characters they didn't create. Just off the top of my head. Also The Aeneid, which I haven't read but the internet is telling me is basically Ascended Fanfiction.

Two, you don't really seem to have an informed opinion on this topic. Which is, like, fine. Most of us don't know most things. But maybe consider there's good reasons many people are disagreeing with you.
