The question is unclear. Many things about characters are important in a story. If the characters are not believable, the reader won't care about them, and won't read the story.

There are as many characters in an opera as necessary to tell the story. There is no fixed number.
Chino, a character in "West Side Story," has a relatively small number of lines compared to the main characters. He has approximately 25 lines throughout the musical. His role, while important in advancing the plot, primarily serves to highlight the conflict between the Jets and the Sharks, particularly regarding his feelings for Maria.
In "West Side Story," the character Indio, who is a member of the Sharks, has a limited number of lines and is not considered one of the main characters. While he contributes to the ensemble's dynamic, his role is more supportive compared to central characters like Bernardo, Anita, and Maria. Indio's presence is felt, but he does not have a significant impact on the primary storyline.
The ideal number of main characters for a story to remain cohesive and engaging is typically around 3 to 5. Having too many main characters can make the story confusing and dilute the focus on each character's development and storyline.
There are many other characters besides just the main two. You can have sidekicks, helpers, minions, background characters (the people you meet but don't have much of a role in the actual story) -- you can have as many characters as you need for your story.
