Three Types of Character When Viewed
From The Side of His Involvement In The
Plot Moving
Central character is a character that very potential
moving plot. Central character is the center of the
story, the causes of conflict.
Subordinate character are figures that are not so
great influence on the development of the plot,
although he is also involved in the plot development.

Character

for truth and honesty, as well as having
good character.
The antagonist is a character that is
against truth and honesty, and has an bad
temper. (Remember, the antagonist is not

The Importance of A Character In The
Story

telling preferred concerned. He is the most
telling character, both as cast and subjected to
incident occurrence.

Character Dimensions
MAJOR
Major characters are
frequently, albeit not
exclusively, multidimensional and
dynamic (round
character)
MINOR
minor characters often
remain monodimensional and static
(flat character)
Multi-dimensional characters display several
(even conflicting) character traits and are thus
reasonably complex. They also tend to develop
throughout the plot (hence, dynamic), though
this is not necessarily the case.
Mono-dimensional characters, on the other
hand, can usually be summarised by a single
phrase or statement, i.e., they have only few
character traits and are generally merely types.
Frequently, mono-dimensional characters are
also static, i.e., they do not develop or change
during the play.
Based On The Possibility of
Reflection In Real Life
A typical Character is a figure that is only bit
displayed state of individuality, and the more
highlighted the quality of his nationality or his
work (Altenbernd & Lewis (in Nurgiantoro 2002:
190) or something else that is representing.
Neutral Character are character that exist in the
story itself. He is an imaginary character who
only live and exist in the world of fiction
