Characterization. By changing how a character is portrayed, the author is likely adjusting the way readers perceive and engage with the story's characters, ultimately influencing the overall narrative and themes.
Changing the tone makes the story and the character sound more believable. You don't want a really serious, horrible thing happening to your character and then have them think "Oh no, it's okay." You want them to think, "What the heck?" or something (depending on what has happening in the story).
It makes a reader feel supportive of the character showing courage
By using the character's actions, interactions, and words to learn more about him or her
To analyze suspense in a story, a reader should note elements such as pacing, foreshadowing, character reactions, and the level of uncertainty or tension present in the narrative. Observing how the author builds and maintains suspense through these techniques can help readers understand the impact of suspense on the overall storytelling experience.
The author portrays Larry Dunn as a victim of bullying and racial discrimination, highlighting his vulnerability and innocence despite his tough exterior. By showing Larry's struggles and the impact of his experiences on his character, the reader is encouraged to empathize with his plight and see him in a more compassionate light. Through Larry's interactions with the main characters and the challenges he faces, the author effectively evokes sympathy from the reader.
The writer can use first person point of view of the character (I, me, mine, etc), or follow the character in third person point of view through the entire story (he, she). It makes the reader familiar with the character; while changing point of views or scenes all the time diversifies the reader's attention rapidly.
This is called the character's "depth" or "dimensionality." When a character is well-developed and exhibits traits, emotions, and behaviors that make them feel like a fully-fleshed out individual, readers are more likely to connect with and care about that character.
The writer wants to write from the perspective of one character. -apex
