Vladimir Propp (a Russian critic) had developed a character theory in the 1920's for media texts and productions. It suggests that there are 7 types of characters, these can be seen below:
The Villain (struggles against the hero)
The Donor (prepares the hero or gives the hero some magical object)
The (magical) Helper (helps the hero in the quest)
The Princess (person the hero marries, often sought for during the narrative)
Her Father (usually dies during or before the film/book)
The Dispatcher (character who makes the lack known and sends the hero off)
The Hero or victim/seeker hero, reacts to the donor, amd marries the princess
