There's not many people who dislike morally grey characters and that's for a good reason. They are complex characters which cause us to think philosophically about their morals. Through this thought process, debates going back and forth commence, all stemming from the character's morality. And all of this makes us, the audience, more interested in the character's development. The reason why people like morally grey characters seems clear but is that all to it? And how do you create a morally grey character which stands out from the crowd? If you give me 7 minutes of your time, I will tell you the secrets to crafting an amazing morally grey character of your own!

ABOUT ME:
My name is Nosa Ogbeiwi and I'm a writer, music producer and artist. I've always had a passion for drawing, music and writing stories but I thought those things could only be a hobby. However, now I realise I have these talents for a reason and it would be a shame for them to go to waste. I want people to realise that they can succeed creatively and I will show you the way by doing it myself!
