Character development
What are the four 4 types of character development?

Dynamic character: A character who goes through some sort of change. 
Static character: A character who does not change throughout the course of the story. 
Round character: A character who is a fully-developed figure. 
Flat character: A character who does not develop or change throughout the story.                                                                                                                     -study.com-

Examples
Dynamic characters: Scrooge in a Christmas Carol. He changes over the course of the story. 
Round character is closely related to the dynamic character. It is a major, fluid character, who shows the capacity for change and development from the moment we meet them. Harry Potter is an example. 
Flat character is a character with little to no complex emotions, motivations, or personality. They don't undergo change to make them more well-rounded. Sherlock Holmes from The adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
A static character is a type of character who experiences little to no internal change over the course of the story. Even as the plot develops, their personalities, beliefs, and characterization stay the same. Sherlock is also a static character.

  • Character traits
  • Description of appearence if relevant to the story
  • Emotions: predictable or not; what sort of
  • Responding to life events
