Tag: Third-person Narrative

Tags > Style > Presentation > Story > Third-person Narrative

In this type of story, a disembodied narrator describes what the characters do and what happens to them. You don’t see directly through a character’s eyes as you do in a first-person narrative, but often the narrator describes the main character’s thoughts and feelings about what’s going on.

A third-person narrator can sometimes be omniscient, when they have a bird's-eye-view of all the goings on. Or they can be limited, and stick closely to the perspectives of just one or two characters.

In this narrative style all characters are referred to as he, she, or they, rather than any character using “I” or “we” in the narration.
