Question

Oedipus’s major character traits and explain how they directly influence the plot.

Answer 1

 Anger. Okay, it's definitely true that our buddy Oedipus has a temper. Indeed, it was rash anger that led to him unknowingly kill his real father, King Laius, at the crossroads. The killing of his father is an essential link in Oedipus' downfall, making his violent temper a good candidate for a tragic flaw.
Hope this helps!
