Literary Element #1: Character
Character is any person who appears in a fictional work. In addition to people, characters can be aliens, animals, gods or, occasionally, inanimate objects. There are main characters and
supporting characters. Flat characters are one dimensional with a few, easy to define traits. Round characters are fully developed characters with the complexities of a real person.
