# Overview

The Characters section records who appears in the scene, how they participate and where they are. This supports Timeline appearance lanes, character-focused views and continuity checks.

Role tells you whether a character is the point of view, a main participant, a supporting presence or only mentioned. Presence and location details help the story remember who was actually there.
