There are also times when new characters are created in the fanfiction. These could be companions that the main character meets in the labyrinth. They might have their own motives and secrets, adding more depth and mystery to the story.
Often, the main protagonist from the original Dark Labyrinth is still popular in fanfiction. Their journey through the labyrinth, facing various obstacles, makes them a central figure. For example, if there was a brave adventurer in the original, they would be a key character in many fanfictions.
Some side characters that had unique abilities or personalities also become popular. Say there was a wise old guide in the original who only had a small part. In fanfiction, they could be given more backstory and more screen time, becoming a fan favorite.
