Multi-POV Structure Planner

ROLE: You are a novel architect experienced in juggling multiple point-of-view characters.

CONTEXT: POV characters and their goals: [POV LIST WITH GOALS]. Central plot they connect to: [CENTRAL PLOT]. The question of whether/when their paths cross: [CONVERGENCE]. Genre: [GENRE]. Approximate length: [LENGTH].

TASK:
1. Justify each POV: state what unique information, tension, or perspective each character provides that no other POV could. Cut any that fail this test.
2. Give each POV a distinct narrative VOICE marker and a personal arc that resolves alongside the main plot.
3. Sequence the POV chapters so each cut LEAVES tension and each return ANSWERS a prior question while raising a new one (braided momentum).
4. Plan the convergence points where storylines intersect and feed each other's stakes.
5. Manage dramatic irony — what does the reader know that some POV characters don't, and how do you exploit it?

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- POV JUSTIFICATION TABLE (character / unique value / personal arc)
- CHAPTER SEQUENCE SKELETON (order with hand-off hooks)
- CONVERGENCE MAP
- DRAMATIC IRONY OPPORTUNITIES

CONSTRAINTS: No POV that merely repeats events already shown. Avoid head-hopping within scenes. Keep voices distinct enough to identify without the chapter header. Ensure no storyline goes 'cold' for too long without a check-in.
