- Character Motives Hidden Behind Political Positions: In political struggles, no one is simply an “ally” or an “enemy.” Interests and political positions are certainly important, but each character’s background, personality, ambition, fears, and weaknesses will also influence their judgment and actions. You will need to uncover their true motives through the story, character profiles, and subtle details in dialogue, then decide whom to trust, whom to win over, and whom to abandon within the narrow gaps of power.
