Story Beat: the twist, betrayal, everything falls apart

Finally, friction that's been building throughout the second act comes to a head and the protagonist's victory turns to dust.

Sometimes this involves an active twist or betrayal, but just as often this can be anything that's been brewing.

Characterization - Two-Faced Betrayer

You first. No really, I insist.

Obsequeious. Sneaky. Polite. Cold. Calculating.

Curopal is a white glove with a hidden knife - polite, efficient, and ready to stab you in the back the moment you're not looking.

They've devised a plan where no matter what happens: they come out on top. On top of that, nobody even knows that they're involved.

They take no risks, place no bets, do not expose themselves or their intentions, and somehow still win.

They're not terribly powerful, even - in direct confrontation they'd be as harmless as a baby kitten - their strength is in their ability to put the knife in at exactly the right moment.
