# Character
|
||
|
||
**Status:** revised (Phase III, 2026-08-12)
|
||
**See also:** RQ7, H8, RN-004, `research/character-persona/character-persona-performance-map.md`
|
||
|
||
## Working definition
|
||
|
||
**Character** is a relatively persistent structure of dispositions from which
|
||
context-dependent behavior tends to emerge.
|
||
|
||
## Distinctions
|
||
|
||
| Term | Role |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| State | Fast-changing conditions |
|
||
| Behavior | Contextual expression |
|
||
| Character | Slower dispositional structure |
|
||
| Persona | Situated projection / mask |
|
||
| Identity | Sameness of the Being over time |
|
||
|
||
## Hard constraints (Phase I identity research)
|
||
|
||
- Character similarity ⇏ identity
|
||
- Character change ⇏ identity loss
|
||
|
||
Character is identity-*relevant*, not identity-defining.
|
||
|
||
## Artificial quality bar
|
||
|
||
Recognizable patterns across **novel** situations — not mere style mimicry.
|
||
|
||
## Sources

||

||
