The Last Literary Term!

 Challenge: What does this lit term mean?  Definition: A character who provides a contrast to another character to highlight specific qualities

the medieval practice of placing a metal foil around a gemstone to make it shine brighter. Jewelers often put shiny metal foil underneath a gem to make the stone shine brighter.

 Foil characters make the characteristics and personality of the protagonist stand out and shine brighter for the audience or reader.

A literary foil is someone who highlights another character's trait, usually by contrast, but sometimes by competing with him, making remarks, or egging him on. Sidekicks often serve as foils to the hero by being something the hero himself is not (a calm and thoughtful sidekick when the hero is hotheaded, for example). In the classic good-guy versus bad guy scenario, both the hero and villain can each be considered the other's foil, in that each acts to show how the other behaves in certain situations.

Foils highlight traits by Contrast Competition Remarks Pay attention to Sidekicks Villains Opposites Similar circumstances
