__Strength of the character__ Controls who could get married

Because he is the priest, Friar Lawrence has an enourmous amount ;of enfluence over all of Verona. Especially because durring this time period, church was an extremely important part of everyday life. He also teaches the children of the town. Friar Lawrence was also the one who marries couples. This obviously comes into play when Romeo and Juliet ask to get married. If he lets the two get married, the feud will end, so he will also be responsible for the largest feud in verona to end and many lives will be saved.-Jesse Webb __Weakness of the character__ Agrees to let them be married so the feud will just end

He spends to much time in the church and doesn't aquire wiseness from the outside world. -Jesse Webb
