I don't mean characters that think they're the protagonist—I mean characters who know they're a side character. Characters who know what a story looks like and know when they're standing next to one. They're keeping their head down and watching events play out with morbid fascination or consciously performing NPC dialogue with a knowing smile. They choose their words carefully as they sculpt the story for you, or someone else, or just for themselves, as if describing the events will give them some kind of control. And maybe they forget that unlike you, the actual audience, the fourth wall will not protect them.

I made a dungeon meshi OC to join some friends' fan adventuring party. Would You Hire This Half-Foot?
DOBHAN FACTS:
From a fishing family/neighborhood of Kahka Brud's port.
Enthusiastic amateur and collector of old dwarven texts, since a full technical education is barred to non-dwarves. Self-taught enough Dwarven to read, but not speak it.
Advertises six years of expertise, but only the last 1-2 years have been field experience.
Fascinated by dwarven culture + history but too scared to speak to dwarves directly (might say something uneducated and get corrected in front of everyone OR say something *too* educated and get Got)
Quite nearsighted but got used to life without glasses and now can't be bothered to try to save up for a pair.
Known to mistake tallmen for each other because their faces are so blurry all the way up there and there's so many of them...
Favorite foods: Salmon, soft cheese.
Least favorite foods: Clams, shrimp.
