Question

What is a tragic flaw?

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. a weakness in a central character of high rank and personal quality.

A flaw is some bad characteristic that people have, so it cannot possibly be a strength - therefore, options B and D are incorrect. Tragic flaws are usually about protagonists, main characters, because minor characters are not as important. Tragic flaw is some characteristic of the protagonist that makes him/her do something that will result in a tragedy.
