==Who are the protagonists?== Protagonists in Unwritten are, above all else, explorers. They all have things that they are trying to learn. They have mysteries they want to solve, new places they want to see and questions that they want answered. In that pursuit, ''Unwritten'' characters are proactive, competent, and dramatic. ;'''''Proactive''''' :Explorers are proactive. They have a variety of abilities that lend themselves to active problem solving, and they aren’t timid about using them. They don’t sit around waiting for the solution to a crisis to come to them—they go out and apply their energies, taking risks and overcoming obstacles to achieve their goals. They are driven by the need to know. :This doesn’t mean that they don’t ever plan or strategize, or that they’re all careless to a fault. It just means that even the most patient among them will eventually rise and take action in a tangible, demonstrable way. ;'''''Competent''''' :Explorers are good at things. They’re skilled, talented, or trained individuals who are capable of making visible change in the world they inhabit. The understanding that they pursue is within their reach. They are the right people for the job, and they get involved in a crisis because they have a good chance of being able to resolve it for the better. :This doesn’t mean they always succeed, or that their actions are without unintended consequence. It just means that when they fail, it isn’t because they made dumb mistakes or weren’t prepared for the risks. ;'''''Dramatic''''' :Explorers lead dramatic lives. The secrets that they uncover have meaning, and affect the world in which they live. Their lives require them to make hard choices and live with the consequences. Their experiences affect who they are, and shape what they can accomplish and what path they choose. :Essentially, they are people. Like us, they have interpersonal troubles and struggle with their issues. Though the external circumstances of their lives might be a lot bigger in scope than what we go through, we can still relate to and sympathize with them.
