Opinions

So, today we are going to talk about opinions in characters. But first, the definition as known by Merriam-Webster:

opin·ion

 noun \ə-ˈpin-yən\

: a belief, judgment, or way of thinking about something : what someone thinks about a particular thing

: advice from someone with special knowledge : advice from an expert

: a formal statement by a judge, court, etc., explaining the reasons a decision was made according to laws or rules

There are billions of opinions in the world, and your fantasy world is no different. But sometimes things seem easier if everyone is of the same mindset as you main character.
But this presents a different problem.
The Clone Complex. Every character is similar to the last, because all of the opinions are the same. This makes things seem unreal and can pull a reader out of the story.

There is also the problem of having too many conflicting opinions that everyone must be right about. If you have this, you better hope you wrote in a neutral character to break up the fight.

But we can't disregard opinions. They are a part of each beings personality.

So I challenge you to write about two characters fighting over their different opinions.
Have fun, don't be too hard on yourself, and let me know how it goes.
Until next time!
