stories Stereotypical characters are mainly used in

Why Original Characters?
Original characters are much more interesting! WHY? They are “real.” We can relate to them. No one in life is perfect. No one is all good or all bad. Everyone has a story.
By using characterization to create an original character, you are basically creating a “real” person.
