Ann responds:
Thank you for also answering my query on the "opposition", as
well as Dr.  Bain's.

I found this particularly interesting because in my current
writing, I had to create a "bad guy".  At first, I found it
strange to get my thinking to match his twisted mind set, but
over time I began to enjoy making him make mischief.  He is the
symbol of chaos which is a catalyst for the other character's
growth.

I set up natal charts for all my major characters and that
experience made me wonder how the Great Author keeps track of it
all.  He must have help.  His storyline is so complicated.
