Dramatic irony.
It is called dramatic irony. Dang you beat me to it. And situational irony is when something unexpected or opposite of what you thought was going to happen happens.
This is called Suspense, for the reader has an excited anticipation to know what will happen.
The plot is what happens, so of course it can help determine what happens to a character. If you mean can it help a reader to guess what might happen, then that, too, is true. If you know what's been going on from reading the story, then you can guess what might happen in the future.
Foreshadowing it gives a hint to whats going to happen in the future and it also creates suspense for the reader it makes them want to read more to find out what is going to happen at the end.

Stock characters are instantly familiar to the reader, and will allow the reader to understand what's going to happen and how the characters are going to react without a lot of description and explanation.

Forecast
No, it doesn't really matter if a character or an anonymous narrator tells the story. The reader is more interested in what's going on than in who's talking!
Suspense is the feeling of anxiety or excitement about something that may or may not happen. Suspense in a story is when the details leave the reader excited and anxious as they wonder what will happen next.
Ok
