flat

D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A static character is one who doesn’t undergo any significant change in a story, whereas a flat character is a one-dimensional character who isn’t layered or deep-rather, a flat character just has one or two traits that make up their whole personality.

Detailed explanation-2: -Flat characters are also sometimes referred to as “one-dimensional” or “two-dimensional.” Both of these monikers point to the same thing: a character who has very minimal complexity, and often renders the story less believable as a result.

Detailed explanation-3: -Well then, “What is a flat character?” you ask? A flat character is a two-dimensional minor character that lacks both a backstory and any real depth. An uncomplicated, unchanging flat character might have a short-lived role in the story, or may provide an archetypal presence that readers will instantly recognize.

Detailed explanation-4: -One-Dimensional Character Definition A one-dimensional character is someone who lacks depth and who never seems to learn or grow throughout the story. They have one purpose, do not arc or change, and just come out the other side just as they went in.

Detailed explanation-5: -Static characters do not change, while dynamic characters change throughout the piece of literature. Round characters are characters that we know a lot about, while flat characters we only know basic details about.
