The Four Archetypes

There are six archetypes that real-life people live by: Innocent, Orphan, Magician, Wanderer, Martyr and War-

rior. The theory is that people make certain choices about how to live their lives and how to respond to vari-

ous issues based on their deﬁning archetype.

Contour utilizes four out of the six archetypes -- Orphan, Wanderer, Warrior, and Martyr. Understanding how

the protagonist moves through them during the course of a story will bring the writer extremely close to a

character-driven script. The four archetypes and where they fall within the three act structure are charted

graphically below.
