Hmmmmmmmmm...well, he isn't Mr. Micawber, nor is he David Copperfield, Nickolas Nickleby, or even Little Dorrit. Mr. Pickwick or one of his friends? Nope!
Fagan? HELL NO !
Oliver Twist? NO AGAIN!
So before I list every character that Dickens ever wrote, I'll just say that old Sly is being too "cute" by far.

Dickensian character???? You have to forgive Sly. He speaks his mind and doesn't know the meaning of the word "fear". Nor does he know the meaning of a lot of other words.

Still thinking on which Dickinson character that might be. In some ways it is similar to Pip’s benefactor in Great Expectations - but the temperament of personality is not agreeable. Dickens showed the character to be totally rough, not filed around the edges. But in his heart he was found to be a somewhat likable,loyal guy - you had to search for it. The two have their gold stash which might be considered. Will give this puzzle more mulling time.

Nah, he'd be Zephaniah Scadder in Martin Chuzzlewit, an American agent who sells a malarial swamp development called Eden to young Martin Chuzzlewit. He takes pleasure in getting the better of the British rubes. (Eden is thought to be Cairo, Illinois, which Dickens saw)
