Do you want to write more interesting and compelling characters? I do, which is why I have been doing research on different kinds of character arcs. In this video, I want to talk about the maiden's character arc.
Most characters in folk literature can be broken down into archetypes. By using characters that represent a pattern, a writer can skip over a lot of characterization.
The Maiden Arc is the classical damsel in distress story. It is a fundamental coming-of-age story. In literature and movies, this character is often represented by a young powerless female character who needs rescuing.
