Characters

In my storyboard plot, I'm keeping the characters down to a maximum of three. These being:
The hero: saves the day and restores equilibrium; sometimes he’s been on a quest to find something. The central protagonist in the action of the narrative. In this case, the hero is the character who started off happy at the beginning, goes through a depression stage, due to the antagonistic event, and then in the end finds happiness once again.

The villain: creates the narrative complication / disequilibrium. In this case, the villain is the female who drives the hero's partner to cheat on him. This causing the disequilibrium, and the hero's sorrow and depression.

The princess (male): has to be saved by the hero and is the hero’s reward. In this case, the princess is also the slight cause of the disequilibrium, due to the affair which takes place. But the hero rescues the princess once again, in the end. Which leads to the happy ending, and the re-equilibrium.
