Macbeth's Downfall

Once Macbeth found out that he was destined to become King he started being very greedy. He began plotting evil ways to become King, he ended up killing Duncan because he was power hungry.

Macbeth was influenced by Lady Macbeth to kill King Duncan, he was having doubts but she forced him into it. This is a fatal flaw because it is showing that he is easily manipulated.

At first he was ambitious but once he obtained power all he wanted was more, and he was willing to go to great lengths to get it, even if it was not in an honest way.
One of his fatal flaws was that he had a conscientious and guilt started to make him fall apart. He began to be very paranoid that people would find out how he became king, and he didn’t want to suffer the consequences.
