Who are the typical characters in 'dark waters stories'?

I'm not sure as the 'dark waters story' isn't clearly defined. But it could have a fearless explorer as a main character, someone who is not afraid to venture into the unknown dark waters.

There are often innocent victims. These are ordinary people who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then there are the villains. They could be supernatural beings like vampires or werewolves, or just really evil humans. And sometimes there are the wise old characters, like an old hermit who might know something about the dark secrets but is often reluctant to get involved.

Children are very typical characters. They often have a natural fear of the dark, and in these stories, they might be the ones cowering under the covers or trying to brave their way through a dark room. Another common character is the lone traveler. They find themselves in a dark and spooky place, like an old inn or a desolate road at night. And there are also the old wise characters, like an old hermit who might know the secrets of the dark and either help or hinder the main character.

Typical characters in Dark Parables stories include the damsel in distress, although she's not always a helpless figure. She often has hidden strength. There are also the tricksters, characters who play with the rules and can be either helpful or a hindrance. And knights or protectors are common, those who are sworn to defend the good. They might be on a quest to save a kingdom or a person from the clutches of evil.
