Dynamic Characters
There are two main types of characters. The first type is the dynamic character. Authors of gripping stories are able to provide colorful characters that can develop and grow throughout the story. These are the dynamic characters. Dynamic characters change in some way. For example, think of your favorite Disney movie - it probably features a character who goes through some change.
Let's examine The Lion King. In the beginning, Simba is immature and an easy victim to his uncle's plan for murder and guilt. However, by the end, he is confident and willing to take responsibility for his mistakes. Ultimately, he defeats his uncle and takes his rightful place as king. Simba is a prime example of a dynamic, or changing, character.
