17. FOR EACH CHARACTER ARCHETYPE TRY TO THINK OF EXAMPLES FROM MOVIES OR NOVELS THAT EXEMPLIFY THE TRAITS DESCRIBED.

18. “TO SERVE AND SACRIFICE” THE HERO- “TO SERVE AND SACRIFICE”  The hero must learn in order to grow. Often the heart of a story is not the obstacles he faces, but the new wisdom he acquires, from a mentor, a lover, or even from the villain.  The hero can be an innocent, a wanderer, a martyr, a warrior, a vengeful destroyer, a ruler, or a fool. But the essence of the hero is the sacrifice he makes to achieve his goal.

20. “TO GUIDE” THE MENTOR- “TO GUIDE”  The mentor is a character who aids, trains, guides or offers advice to the hero. The essence of the mentor is the wise old man or woman.  These characters are often found in the roles of drill instructor, coaches, the older policeman, the aged warrior training the squire, a boss, parent or grandparent, etc.

23. “TO WARN OR CHALLENGE” THE HERALD- “TO WARN OR CHALLENGE”  The role of the Herald is to announce the challenge which begins the hero on his story journey.  The Herald is the person or piece of information which upsets the sleepy equilibrium in which the hero has lived and starts the adventure.  The Herald can show up at any time in the story, but usually appear at the beginning.  Can reside within the Hero (dreams/visions) or outside of the Hero (declaration of war/approaching storm).

26. “TO TEST” THE THRESHOLD GUARDIAN- “TO TEST”  The threshold guardian is the first obstacle to the hero in his journey- it may be a character, a locked door, an animal or a force of nature such as a tornado.  Frequently the threshold guardian is a henchman or employee of the antagonist.  The threshold guardian can also be an otherwise neutral character, or even a potential ally.  The hero will encounter the guardian early in the story, usually right after he starts his quest.

29. “TO QUESTION OR DECEIVE” THE SHAPESHIFTER- “TO QUESTION OR DECEIVE”  The Shapeshifter changes role or personality, often in significant ways, and is hard to understand.  That very changeability is the essence of this archetype.  The Shapeshifter's alliances and loyalty are uncertain, and the sincerity of his claims is often questionable. This keeps the hero off guard.

32. TO DISRUPT” THE TRICKSTER- “TO DISRUPT”  The Trickster is a clown, a mischief maker. He provides the comedy relief that a story often needs to offset heavy dramatic tension.  The trickster can be an ally or companion of the hero, or may work for the villain. In some instances the trickster may even be the hero or villain.

35. THE SHADOW- “TO DESTROY”  The Shadow archetype is a negative figure, representing our darkest desires, our untapped resources, or greatest fears and phobias.  The shadow is the worthy opponent with whom the hero must struggle- the Anti-Hero.  In a conflict between hero and villain, the fight is to the end; one or the other must be destroyed or embraced and accepted.

37. ALLIES - “TO SUPPORT”  Fills in gaps where hero is deficient (skills or knowledge)  Represents virtues of hero (could be one sidekick or a team)  Support system (the mentor is more of a teacher)  Allows hero to complete journey
