BEFORE YOU READ: Frankenstein Chapters 1-10 • Background • Two Well-Round Characters • In chapters 1 through 10, Shelley develops the two main characters in the novel: Victor Frankenstein and his creature. She also introduces a number of minor characters in the novel. When a fictional character has individuality and depth, and experiences personal growth or change, he or she is called a round character. The opposite of a round character is a flat character. Round characters are life-like and three-dimensional, while flat characters seem more like cardboard figures or stereotypes, and are not as well developed.
