Character (arts): 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, or 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.  Character, particularly when enacted by an actor in the theatre or cinema, involves "the illusion of being a human person."  In literature, characters guide readers through their stories, helping them to understand plots and ponder themes.  Since the end of the 18th century, the phrase "in character" has been used to describe an effective impersonation by an actor.  Since the 19th century, the art of creating characters, as practiced by actors or writers, has been called characterisation.

Shortly after the character's first appearance in a magazine story, Paramount Pictures used the story and character as the basis for the 1937 film "Internes Can't Take Money".  Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) subsequently acquired the rights and featured Kildare as the primary character in a series of American theatrical films in the late 1930s and early 1940s, several of which were co-written by Faust (as Max Brand), who also continued to write magazine stories and novels about the character until the early 1940s.

Abrams, the creator of "Lost", once told "Entertainment Weekly", "Jack Shephard may be the greatest leader in any television series."
