Characters are central to our stories but there’s more to it than creating people. Here’s the science bit!
Characters fit into different categories, including:
Dynamic Character - a character which changes during the course of a story or novel
Round Character - a well developed character who demonstrates varied and sometimes contradictory traits
Foil - a character that is used to enhance another character through contrast.
Confidante- someone in whom the central character confides, thus revealing the main character’s personality, thoughts, and intentions.
Static (or flat or stock) Character – a character that remains primarily the same throughout a story or novel.
