The Hero's Reward comes in many forms: a magical sword, an elixir, greater knowledge or insight, reconciliation with a lover. Whatever the treasure, the Hero has earned the right to celebrate. Celebration not only allows the Hero to replenish his or her energy, but also gives the audience a moment to catch their breath before the Journey resumes to its climax and resolution.
The Road Back: The Hero must finally recommit to completing the Journey and accept the Road Back to the Ordinary World. A Hero's success in the Special World may make it difficult to return. Like Crossing the Threshold, The Road Back, needs an event that will push the Hero through the Threshold, back into the Ordinary World. ]]> 2016-12-13 18:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143439337 Master of the Two Worlds/Restoring the World (The Resurrection) phantomhivetrancy2 https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143441168 The Hero faces the Resurrection, his most dangerous meeting with death.

 The Shadow character is normally filled with a huge amount of repressed energy and emotion, aspects of the protagonist that have festered from lack of expression. It can be an outside force, or a reflection of part of your protagonist's character. Doubts that cripple the protagonist at the critical moment, or frighten them out of taking crucial steps are the footprints of the 
protagonist's Shadow.]]> 2016-12-13 19:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143460133 Mentor peaceoutaug1997 https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143460295 Absolem
The mentor serves a number of purposes: source of wisdom, gift giver, and conscience. The role of gift-giver comes out most strongly in the subgenres that reflect mythology and fairytales.]]> 2016-12-13 19:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143460295 Herald peaceoutaug1997 https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143460690 Bunny 
Heralds act to signal change and invite the character to answer the call to adventure. Their job is to motivate the hero into action, despite the hero's frequent desire to maintain the status quo. 
Heralds can be people, objects or acts of nature. They may be positive, neutral or negative. We usually encounter the Herald in the first stages of the journey, although this archetype can be used to signal major direction changes later in the plot.

The Threshold Guardian's job is to ensure the protagonist is worthy of passing the threshold, and thus they act as part of the tests the protagonist must face in the journey. A hero who depends on his strength might attempt to overcome Threshold Guardians, while a hero who depends on his wits might evade, bribe, learn from and even convert the Guardians to his cause. Needless to say, running away from a Threshold Guardian is not a successful way of dealing with one. . As with Mentors, the Guardian can also be an inanimate object, animal or force of nature.
Threshold Guardians are typically the henchmen of the villain or antagonist, but they can also be neutral to either side, simply doing their job. The third type of guardian is a secret helper, there to act as a guide if the protagonist is able to pass the initial test and learn from the result. A delayed form of secret helper is the guardian who turns to your protagonist's side after the protagonists shows them mercy or aids them. The final type of threshold guardian is more difficult to define and fight, because they are the protagonist's own fears, hatred and obsessions

The Shapeshifter archetype is hard to describe by its very nature but in essence it acts to bring 
uncertainty and tension into a story, by changing appearance, mood, or behavior. In a romance, the hero and heroine can both be shapeshifters, adapting as external and internal demands require.

Secondary characters may be Shapeshifters as well, turning from Mentor to Herald to Trickster to Villain and back through the cycle in turn. Shapeshifters can reflect the protagonist's unspoken desire for transformation, and successful dealings with such shifters can result in new understanding of the opposite sex or restrained energies within themselves.]]> 2016-12-13 19:08:31 UTC https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143461131 Trickster peaceoutaug1997 https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143461309 Drink me and Eat me temptation items 
The energy of mischief and the potential for change are the signposts for the Trickster Archetype. They may be as obvious as the clownish sidekick or as subtle as the hidden troublemaker. Tricksters serve important purposes. They can serve to cut egos down to size, be they the egos of your protagonists or the people they encounter. In books with a serious or action-filled tone, they can give moments of contrasting light relief. Tricksters serve as catalysts because they can't stand to see things stay as they are. As catalysts, they affect other lives but remain unchanged themselves. Their entire purpose is to promote change, and by words or action help to shine a light on situations that must be modified for balance.]]> 2016-12-13 19:09:06 UTC https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143461309 Allies peaceoutaug1997 https://padlet.com/phantomhivetrancy2/luh01kmzme89/wish/143462235 March Hare
