Detailed explanation-1: -In the book (and movie) “Holes, ” a character named Zero starts off as a quiet character who can’t read, but eventually he transforms into a character who begins to speak up and learns to read, thanks to his friend, Stanley. Zero is an example of a dynamic character.
Detailed explanation-2: -A static character is one that doesn’t change throughout the telling of the story, whereas dynamic characters are the opposite – they undergo significant internal and/or external changes. By the end of the story, dynamic characters are very different from how they were at the start.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is a static character? Here’s a quick and simple definition: A character is said to be “static” if they do not undergo any substantial internal changes as a result of the story’s major plot developments. Antagonists are often static characters, but any character in a story can be static.
Detailed explanation-4: -A dynamic character is one who learns a lesson or changes as a person (either for better or for worse). Most main characters and major characters in stories are dynamic. Dynamic characters are the opposite of static characters; while dynamic characters change throughout a story, static characters stay the same.
Detailed explanation-5: -In order for a character to be considered a static character, the character must remain basically the same throughout the entire story. The character does not undergo any internal changes. Think of static characterization like plastic surgery.
