I'm trying to flesh out a character in my book that is basically a "town rowdy" that takes sport in antagonizing people, especially the main character. At this point I'm having a hard time making him believable in my own mind. I know part of it is just the nature of that person, but I want him to be more than just a convenient source of conflict. Is there any compelling reason why someone would just wander about, making trouble for the main character? Or any character in general?
