However, this can also limit the depth and complexity of the characters, making them feel one-dimensional and less engaging for some readers. Additionally, relying on stereotypes can perpetuate harmful stereotypes and reinforce societal bias. It is important for writers to strive for a balance of relatability and complexity in their characters to create more nuanced and compelling stories.
