So, we all know our main characters and our villains in our story's, but what about side characters?
This thread is dedicated to all those sides of the main combos. A place where you can talk about how characters that aren't your mains and how they fit in the story/how impactful they are to the plot?
I think we all can agree different stories have a different level of plot influence from side characters and some side character operate more like secondary in some way or another and that's all included too.
The only restriction is that it can't be for villains and your main characters/pokemon.
And to give an example,
Sides characters in my story range from about three levels of impact.
Minor: Akin to advice giving or something on the lines of putting in some little moment for the mains/character in question to derive something that moves the plot along
Involved: A character that is involved in the plotline, but often isn't showcased. Can travel with the character, fight with them, talk about deeper things, etc. Mainly for those characters that are either "recurring" or "more influential than simple advice giving"
Secondary: for all my characters that aren't mains but get the silver for focus on the good guys section. Since the books changes mains and all we can sometimes see mains of a former book being secondary's (maybe even involved) and secondary as main characters. These ones are where POV is focused on a lot more and they have their own arcs and story. Essentially, they are just below the mains.
Hope this little bit helps spark some ideas on how to use some sides and I hope you all share yah thoughts down below. Thanks and merry writing!
