Not necessarily. 15 years, but I’m still wrapping my head around all things Dramatica, obviously I’m walking into new territory this season in my writing.

I don’t understand this difference. I’d love some advice here, then. (or answer it here:[Non Villain](http://discuss.dramatica.com/t/finding-the-non-villain-antagonist/2259/5) )

If everyone thinks she represents the bad guy, and she’s hiding her true identity from them because were they to find out they would immediately kill her off, then is she the antagonist?

From what I understand, if I spin it that way **it will work** , assuming I consistently stick to the other parameters of my Story form. (Because theoretically, if I’m wrong but consistent Ill just be doing the correct storyline inside out/mirror image which will work out the same.)
