Main Character Flaw Brainstorm
Keeping your main character’s
flaw in mind, what’s the Worst situation he could find himself in ? He is a
company man but unaware he is a sleeper , so hearing the new the subjective of his unconscious mind starts to act on the
issue unknown to his conscious self as a defense measure.
What is the First Action your MC
would take? To understand that his subconscious self is acting on the behalf of
himself, he starts to react to the subconscious treats like it is real.
How might that action Backfire?
His conscious self falls when the agent side of himself is awaking again as a
sleeper agent, forcing him into action , the view of the persona becomes dark
he is a prisoner the persona is locked up the two sides of the id are playing
to the side of the sleeper and the awake persona
Who is the Least Likely Person
who might help the MC or team up with him? The handler is the only one who is
able to help the awaken persona
What New Action might that that
Person push the MC to take? His treatment is the only thing that awaken the
persona the NZT48 or ZTI
Who or What might Get In the Way
of this new activity? The unaware , persona of the conscious mind the
non-agent his only role is the cover
role and is unaware of any of the actions of his unconscious self.
How might the flaw of the MC turn
into a SKILL? By taking his treatment it awakens all the skill trapped in the
unconscious mind the sleeper the ultimate intelligence gathering agent that is
totality the ice berg under the water.
What Surprising Final Action could
be taken that is the least likely thing your
Emotion +Action = Story Ex + Ax = Sx
In the beginning of my story,
this event occurs: Edward Snowden leaks secrets which causes the US Gov’t to review documents and discovers an
oversight issue with the National
Security Agency and which in turn causes a backlash against the
Central intelligence agency
It makes my main character (MC)
feel that his life is at risk(What is he) a government mole/spy living in
Europe under an alias
So he/she does this: arrange to
move himself and his life, into and out of the business
But that makes someone else do
this (cause and effect):His handler to take notice
That event makes MC feel: he
needs to leave once the CIA is disbanded he feels that it’s safe to leave he
gathers all the things he needs to leave.
So MC does this: getting ready to
leave
