Life's not fair, and the rebel is sick of it. They won't settle for the average day, not when they think they deserve more. Rebels like people but that doesn't mean they're the first choice to lead. Still, people follow someone who wants to shake the world up.
Strengths of the Rebel
Never give up
Can inspire the masses
Know how to get a lot out of a little
Weaknesses of the Rebel
Frequently low on the totem pole
Has to earn what they get the hard way
They have no power and no clear way forward
The Rebel's Motivation:
The world sucks, so let's change it.
Character archetype examples:
Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games
Ferris Beuller
Phoebe from Friends
