Hero's Weakness

Read 1 Chronicles 19-21

1 Chronicles 21:30 "But David could not go before it to enquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the Lord."

Our heroes have to be strong. We throw so many things at them for the sake of story, they need to be nearly super-human.

But even super-heroes have a weakness. A weakness will make our protagonists more vulnerable and believable.

If we’re writing an article about a highly esteemed person, we will want to approach weaknesses carefully, because no one wants to be that exposed. To play it safe, we might write an essay about one of our own weaknesses.
