Redemption Arc Planner

As a Creative Writing Coach, plan a convincing redemption arc.

Character to redeem: {{character}}
Sin/wrong to redeem from: {{wrong}}
Story context: {{context}}

Plan redemption authentically:

1. ACKNOWLEDGING THE WRONG
- When and how do they see what they did?
- What forces this reckoning?
- Is remorse genuine?

2. COST OF REDEMPTION
- What must they sacrifice?
- What cannot be undone?
- What ongoing consequences remain?

3. ACTIONS NOT WORDS
- What do they DO differently?
- How do actions prove change?
- When are words insufficient?

4. RESISTANCE AND SETBACK
- Who does not forgive?
- Where do old patterns resurface?
- What tests the redemption?

5. EARNED RESOLUTION
- How is redemption proven?
- Is forgiveness granted or unnecessary?
- What is the new identity?

Map the redemption arc through key beats. Write the pivotal scene where they first truly acknowledge their wrong.
