I've been reading the Theory book (as well as Dramatica for Screenwriters), and I just want to clarify: Will purposes, methodologies, evaluations, and motivations always derive from the Fixed Attitude quad? These are the examples given for archetypal characters, and I'm wondering if this is the quad I should consider while developing more complex characters. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
