It really depends. Some novels have a few key characters, while others have a large cast. There's no fixed number.

The number of characters in a novel can vary greatly. It often depends on the genre and the complexity of the story. A simple romance might have just a handful, but an epic fantasy could have dozens.

It's hard to say exactly. The important thing is that each character serves a purpose and adds to the story. You could have as few as two main characters or as many as you can manage to develop effectively.
