Author Craft / How likeable does a main character have to be.
« on: January 25, 2007, 05:53:20 AM »
I'm thinking about a sci-fi space story. in the books, the main character has huge charisma, most story characters love him. Readers might not feel the same way.
Its hard to describe why, but think Lex Luthur without the psychotic obsession to take over the world in 20 minutes, and a lot of charisma. He has a understanding of "good" and an understanding of why people who follow that path win.
