A character, derived from the Greek word "persona," is a person or being featured in narratives such as novels, plays, TV series, movies, and video games. Characters may be entirely fictional or based on real individuals. The term emerged during the Restoration and gained popularity after its appearance in Tom Jones (1749). In theatre and cinema, characters are portrayed by actors who convincingly embody human personas. In literature, they guide readers through stories, aiding comprehension of plots and contemplation of themes. Actors' effective impersonations are described as "in character," while the process of creating characters is called "characterisation."
