#PennedPossibilities 839 — What sort of antagonist are you writing? (See @floofpaldi's post for ideas or clarification.)
Two simultaneous works in progress.
WIP 1: the antagonist is a serial religious grifter—a televangelist analog in a space operatic universe—with a battleship and a militant order of monks at his beck and call. Willing to run a holy war for pleasure and profit.
WIP 2: there is no real antagonist, the empire the protags are embedded in and can't escape is the enemy.
