I’ve been experiment writing with an amoral character of mine and I was wondering if anyone else had written amoral characters before. There are some stereotypes that pop into my mind with the word “Amoral”, such as an uncaring villain laughing as the world burns around him. However Matz (my character) is different. Typically the feeling assigned to amoral is unfeeling, but amoral is just the lack of understanding right and wrong.

Matz struggles with his amorality, searching for truth in men by studying philosophers. He ends up contradicting himself a lot and is a pretty lost character.

Here are my questions:

What’s your advice on writing amoral characters?

What are your thoughts on converting an amoral character to Christianity?

Can an amoral character be a main character? (I’ve heard it’s really hard)

and….anything else you would like to share?
