Characters

Propp's 7 Recurring Character Types in My Slasher 


1. The Villain (antagonist) FEMALE KILLER - struggles against the hero. 
2. The Donor - prepares the hero or gives the hero some magical object. ?
3. The Helper - helps the hero in the quest. ?
4. The Hero (final boy) RICHARD - saves the day and kills the killer. 
5. The False Hero ALEX and WYATT now RICHARD- takes credit for the hero's actions or tries to marry the princess. 
6. The Princess or Prize - the hero deserves her throughout the story but is unable to marry her because of an unfair evil, usually because of the villain. The hero's journey is often ended when he marries the princess, thereby beating the villain. Propp noted that functionally, the princess and father cannot be clearly distinguished. ?
7. The Dispatcher (scream queen/king) - character who makes the lack known and sends the hero off. ?
