Trait: Shiffting Antagonist

Traits > Role > Shiffting Antagonist

This is a character who upon their initial interaction with the protagonist, plays the role of an antagonist. They will however, due to an event in the story, change from an antagonist to be more on the side of the protagonist.

Seems a bit generic and hard to quantify. On one side, if an antagonist is also a hero/ine, they will frequently undergo an allegiance change. On the other hand, allegiance changes are hard to gauge at the best of times, with most changes being of a Hazy Feel Turn variance, rather than an outright Heel Face Turn.
