	Unseen character - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Television shows and stage plays sometimes include continuing characters — characters who are currently in frequent interaction with the other characters and who influence current story events — who are never seen or heard by the audience and only described by other characters.
		The earliest example of an unseen and unheard television character was Gladys Potter on the 1950s TV series December Bride; regular character Pete Potter, played by Harry Morgan, constantly complained about his wife Gladys, but she was never seen on that show.
		The best-known unseen character in British television was Elizabeth, the wife of Captain Mainwaring, the main character in Dad's Army.

		Characters on the command deck may be able to triangulate the exact location of the outgoing signal with a Computer roll, DC 10.
		The character piloting has the most to do during the next portion of the story, though other characters have their hands full as well, such as returning fire at their pursuers.
		If, on the other hand, the characters are not able to shake their pursuers, and they instead are cornered or trapped, they will quickly be surrounded by the surviving members of all three factions, and, perhaps, a few eager natives.

	The Eugene O'Neill Review
		However, the unseen character is so recurrent in his works, from the first sketches to the final masterpieces, that a researcher must conclude that this technique served the playwright’s major concerns in an important, even indispensable way.
		The dominant unseen figures in The Three Sisters are the sinister Protopopov and the dead father of the Prozorovs; in Desire, the major unseen figures are Maw and Min.
		Unseen characters, because they are evoked by minimal means—mostly through the words of onstage characters—engage the audience in the active imagining that is at the heart of theatre.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Unseen Evil (1999)
		Unseen Evil is a good example of its type, but we're not convinced that the type still needs to be made.
		We think that the propensity of horror movie characters to argue is the influence of George Romero's classic Night of the Living Dead, but Romero's characters didn't lose their civility until they were faced with an unstoppable assault by zombies.
		The movie is held together by its cast of unknowns, who grimace and shout and point their guns menacingly at one another as they alternately battle the Occasionally-Seen Evil and protect their own stake in the loot.

	The Shadow at the Bottom of the World by Thomas Ligotti Reviewed by Chris Kemp
		The population is made up of strange and bizarre characters without psychological insights to make them "fit " into the context of your experience--even when narration is first-person.
		--meaning characters tend to accept the goings on without batting an eye (unless, of course, they are placed in direct physical, social, or psychological peril--a less than rare occurrence).
		Unseen for the most part, given the right set of circumstances it will bubble up from under and soak it surroundings with corruption.

	ProleText Specification
		If the first few characters of the block, after initial whitespace are "* ", "o " or "nnn)" or "nnn." where nnn is a decimal number or one or two character alphanumeric string, these characters should be removed, or optionally interpreted, to be replaced by the list enumeration method being used.
		The space in the latter case may be the end of line, and in particular must not be present at the end of a line to avoid interfering with tags.
		The character on the other side of the star must not be a space or a star, so that " * " has no special meaning, and " " and " " have no special meaning.

	Aisle Say (Berkshires): EUGENE'S HOME
		The characters' lives are merely hinted at and offstage events, such as Talie's conflicts with her parents and her fiancé, and Eugene's complicated relationship with his mother, overwhelm much of the less compelling onstage action.
		Shapiro does manage to dispel many myths surrounding the life of people disabled as Eugene is, but her primary focus is never clear enough for us to understand the play's overall purpose.
		The flashbacks are presented as monologues by the woman, who speaks to several unseen characters.

	A Dissertation on Tennessee Williams
		He acknowledges that the connection between his life and the lives of his outcast characters is more one of the circumstances, the acts involving his characters, than of physical or exact psychological makeup.
		The characters need not be completely honest mirrors of Williams's experiences; they may portray a single facet of his personality or suffer through one experience similar to Williams's.
		Through the playwright's imagination and his art--his creation of these fugitive outcast characters and his placement of them in dramatic juxtaposition with conventional morality--we come upon a single common denominator: the playwright, like his outcast characters, feels, because of the situations that made him outcast, that something is missing in his life.

	Reading Group Guide \| SIGHTS UNSEEN by Gibbons Kaye (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-09)
		SIGHTS UNSEEN is an unforgettable tale of unconditional love---and of a Southern family's desperatesearch for normalcy in the midst of madness.
		It is the story of Maggie, "the Barnes woman with all the problems"...and Hattie, a child struggling to find a place for herself in her damaged mother's heart.
		The title SIGHTS UNSEEN is wonderfully evocative and can be interpreted as having different meanings for each of the novel's main characters.

		The email-writers are also more characters of their own right than many other characters listed on the page.
		Many staple characters of the universe did start as writers and/or people mentioned by them, the four most obvious being Cheerleader, So-and-So, What's her face, and The Ugly One, but also such others as Kerrek.
		They should at least be mentioned somewhere else as well, and then we have to decide on a case by case basis whether they are characters, running gags, and so on.

		Women's exclusion from the forest space where men conducted most such rites has been taken as a sign of their exclusion from the entire ritual process.
		Women as Unseen Characters is the first book to examine the role of females in Papua New Guinea male rituals, and the first systematic treatment of this issue for any part of the world.
		In this volume, leading Melanesian scholars build on recent ethnographies that show how female kin had roles in male rituals that had previously gone unseen.

		At the play’s UK premiere next week at London’s Hampstead Theatre, the audience will open the programme and notice that, though Hilda is named in the title and crucial to the action, no actor is listed as playing her.
		Unseen characters prey on the mind - think of Daphne DuMaurier’s Rebecca, or Mrs Rochester in Jane Eyre - and on the mind’s tendency to think the worst.
		The off-stage character is often used to expose the behaviour of those on stage.

	BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER
		Whilst some of this may be in keeping with the show, it's not particularly interesting, and even the late arrival of Faith doesn't provide the last half of the novel with the added impetus that it might have done.
		In part this was because the authors don't appear to particular like the character, but it's mostly because she was pretty much surplus to requirements.
		For anyone who's bought the first two novels, this is a disappointing and boring end to a pretty uninteresting saga, while those who haven't bought the earlier books would be well advised to steer well clear of all three.

	How 'The Simpsons' helps us to understand the way we learn people's faces
		Characters from Irish soap operas and The Simpsons have been used in ESRC-funded research into how we get to learn people's faces.
		They found that for unfamiliar faces, memory appears dominated by the 'external' features, but where the face is well-known it is 'internal' features such as the eyes, nose and mouth, that are more important.
		In studies using faces claimed to belong to characters playing in The Archers and the Simpsons, learning new faces was found to be easier.

	The Alsop Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-09)
		One character—like many of the central characters here, an older woman—complains that the great novels she loves "all began...with the presumption that people all had access to one another.
		In the title story someone describes the Dog Star, Sirius as having "an unseen companion." The person who says it is himself an "unseen companion" to the story's central character, a woman whose still-young husband is in the last stages of death by cancer.
		A writer's characters are "unseen companions"—interestingly, Saint Paul describes faith as "the evidence of things not seen"—and so are her readers.

		Binary files are also referred to as 8-bit files, with each character (not necessarily a character such as a letter or number, though - rather a piece of information) referred to as an 8-bit character.
		A character, such as the letter a or the comma, is stored as a byte.
		Even though each character of data takes up a byte (eight bits) of space, ASCII characters actually use only the right-most seven bits to store their values.

		One problem is the heavy disparity between what the characters are talking about and what we're able to observe about them.
		The characters come across best when they are voicing more of their interior thoughts or speaking directly to the audience.
		On more than one occasion, though, a character will engage in conversation with an unseen second party onstage, which is troublesome enough, but when the real people try to interact with the unseen characters, the result - not to the detriment of the actors, who are all fine - is not very effective.
