However, after he meets the witches and hears their prophecies, he becomes ambitious and starts to consider killing Duncan in order to become king.

The Porter is a minor character in Macbeth who appears in Act 2, Scene 3. He is tasked with answering the door of Macbeth's castle and is described as being drunk.
