Weβre prepping to shoot the next 2-3 videos in the character types series, and have some ideas for character types we could address, but I wanted to hear from you all first. Are there any character stereotypes youβd like to see us tackle? Let me know and I can see if we can address them in a future video!

March 3, 2017 at 11:36 pm #26844Have you done the brainy sidekick yet? Those always annoyed me because they made it look like the hero couldnβt think for himself

March 4, 2017 at 9:53 am #26854It looks like you have yet to do the love interest or sidekick.

March 4, 2017 at 10:25 am #26858@Dragon-Snapper an archetype is basically the typical role any given character fulfills. Mentor. Hero. Dark Lord. A slot for a character that doesnβt really depend that much on the character himself, but what part the character plays in the story.
@kate-flournoy Gotcha. Thanks again! π
Okay then. Definitely the Mentor, and maybe the Evil King (if that exists).

March 5, 2017 at 1:14 pm #26941Have you already addressed the perfect love interest? Or maybe the expendable red shirt type character. =P

March 6, 2017 at 1:48 pm #27016Thanks so much for the suggestions yβall! You guys are the best. Weβll definitely add love interest & sidekick to the docket.
@dragon-snapper This is actually for our Youtube channel, not the Theme Mastery course. π Our first video here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1B1zNr_X-g&t=3s) introduces what character types are, and weβve actually already covered both of your suggestions here for the Mentor (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KhqnH6BMQc) and here for the Evil Overlord (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-Ab8lmRV_o&t=145s). Hope that helps. πEditor-in-Chief Emeritus. Guiding authors at Story Embers.

@aratrea What about the mysterious tough guy with the sad backstory who never smiles?
March 7, 2017 at 3:25 pm #27125@winter-rose Oh; I like that idea. And Iβve seen that in waaaaaaay too many stories.

March 8, 2017 at 8:17 pm #27343@aratrea This might be a little too late, but I just though of one. The arrogant, rich city boy that is stuck by catastrophe and learns humility or something like that. Like Tony Stark, Steven Strange, Lightening McQueen, etc.
*is probably geeking out about something*
March 8, 2017 at 10:17 pm #27351And now that I think about it, Thor kinda falls into this too. Man, Marvel has a problem with that apparentlyβ¦.

March 12, 2017 at 2:11 pm #27678@aratrea Yeahβ¦I figured that a few hours later. π
