A character (sometimes known as a fictional character) is a person or other being in a narrative work of art (such as a novel, play, television series, video game, and film).

The character may be entirely fictional or based on a real-life person, in which case the distinction of a "fictional" versus "real" character may be made.

Derived from the ancient Greek word χαρακτήρ, the English word dates from the Restoration, although it became widely used after its appearance in Tom Jones in 1749.

From this, the sense of "a part played by an actor" developed.

An epic poem, epic (from Latin epicus, from the Ancient Greek adjective, epikos, from, epos, "word, story, poem"), epos (from Latin epos, from Greek, epos), or epopee (from French épopée, from neo-Latin epopoeia, from Ancient Greek, epopoiia) is a lengthy narrative poem, ordinarily concerning a serious subject containing details of heroic deeds and events significant to a culture or nation.

Milman Parry and Albert Lord have argued that the Homeric epics, the earliest works of Western literature, were fundamentally an oral poetic form.

These works form the basis of the epic genre in Western literature.

Nearly all Western epic (including Virgil's Aeneid and Dante's Divine Comedy) self-consciously presents itself as a continuation of the tradition begun by these poems.

Classical epic employs dactylic hexameter and recounts a journey, either physical (as typified by Odysseus in the Odyssey) or mental (as typified by Achilles in the Iliad) or both.

Epics also tend to highlight cultural norms and to define or call into question cultural values, particularly as they pertain to heroism.
