In this episode, we march forth with our series on creating three-dimensional characters.
Political psychologist and YouTuber Abby returns to discuss the psychology of villains and heroes.
We dive into the types of psychological traits that villains and heroes have, how they develop those traits and how we can use this psychological insight to create and get into the minds of our protagonists and antagonists.
This is just the first episode of a duology on villains and heroes; in an episode to come soon, sociologist Dr Enn Burke returns to look at the sociological considerations behind our villainous and heroic characters.
