in the texts
Eumenes
Commander of the Silver-shields, envious rival of Eumenes persuaded by his account of Alexander's dream.
They had also written concerning these matters to Antigenes and Teutamus, the commanders of the Silver-shields.

Alexander
Splendid soldier who fraudulently registers as a debtor to receive money at Susa, is exposed and disgraced by Alexander, but is pardoned when the king fears he will kill himself from despondency.
