A stock character is a stereotypical or conventional character type that appears frequently in various genres or stories. These characters are easily recognizable due to their predictable traits and roles, such as the wise old mentor, the comic sidekick, or the evil villain. Stock characters often fulfill specific functions within the plot but are usually not deeply developed or complex. Their familiarity allows them to quickly convey certain ideas or themes to the audience.
