[[SeriesGoal What are the characters trying to accomplish?]] Compare to MotivationIndex which is what drives the character. While there is some overlap between goals and motivations, they are not always the same thing. Different characters may share the same goal, but have a different motivation. For example, a lawyer may be trying to ClearTheirName ForGreatJustice, or maybe they are OnlyInItForTheMoney.

For a villain's means, see StockEvilOverlordTactics.
