Blocking figures, otherwise known as spoilsports or killjoys in comedy and satire, are often the most powerful figures in written works. They enforce rules, customs, or whatever they deem correct in order to maintain their power and control. Other characters around them try to sway them in other directions in order to meet their own goals.
Blocking figures normally take the roll of fathers in plays.
Examples of blocking figures:
Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest
Orgon in Tartuffe
