most common type of conflict in a story. This is any kind of struggle between two or more people. Character vs. Nature: This is when a character must overcome some natural obstacle or condition. Character vs. Society: A struggle against society occurs when a character is at odds with a particular social force or condition produced by society, such as poverty, political revolution, a social convention or set of values. Characters vs. Themselves: Within a character, parts of his or her personality may struggle for dominance. This conflict is usually about making a choice.
