Yes. An original character can be part of multiple official storylines. Think about a franchise where different teams work on different aspects of the story. They might each create a storyline that involves an original character in a different way, and all these storylines can be considered official or canon.
Yes. There's no hard - and - fast rule that limits an OC to just one canon story. An OC can exist in different narrative contexts, and as long as each story is recognized as part of the official or accepted version of the character's history, they can all be canon. For instance, in a serialized webcomic, an OC might have a backstory in one arc that is canon, and then in a later arc, new events unfold that are also considered canon for the OC, expanding the character's narrative in multiple valid directions.
I don't know which novel 'official road' refers to. Please provide more context so that I can better answer your questions.
Yes. Some novels are designed this way. Like in 'The Godfather' series of novels. Michael Corleone is a main character, but so is Vito Corleone in different parts of the story. They both drive the story forward in significant ways, so there can be more than one main or protagonist character.
Yes. In fact, many stories do. Think about 'The Avengers' movies. Each superhero has their own story arc, powers, and personality. They all come together as a group, but individually they are also important characters. So, having more than one main character can add more depth and variety to a story.
Yes. In some stories, having multiple main characters adds depth. Like in 'The Lord of the Rings', Frodo is a main character, but Sam, Aragorn, and others also play crucial roles and could be considered main protagonists in their own right as they all contribute to the overall plot.
Sure, a story can have multiple foil characters. It depends on the complexity and scope of the narrative.
Sure, a story can have multiple main characters. It's quite common, especially in complex narratives.
😋I recommend Hogwarts: A Magical Elegy. The novel was set in the world of Harry Potter and told the story of a person who traveled to the world of magic at the peak of Grindelwald and before the plot of Harry Potter. The story followed the adventures of the protagonist, Cifa Colwin, and experienced many thrilling plots. You will find that the world view in the novel is richer and the story is more thrilling. At the same time, there are some mysterious private settings that I won't spoil. I believe you will like it. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
Yes. Multiple main characters or protagonists can bring a rich tapestry of stories. In 'Little Women', the four sisters - Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy - are all important characters. Their individual dreams, relationships, and growth form the core of the story. The story wouldn't be the same if it just focused on one of them.
