Abstract

This study examines the narrative and character development of a female antihero through the lens of the Hero’s Journey framework. Focusing on a video game protagonist, the analysis explores which stages of the Hero’s Journey are present, absent, or transformed in her storyline. The findings indicate that although several stages are missing or different, the character’s arc is still coherent and has depth. This shows that antihero stories can change or break traditional story patterns but still remain powerful. The study also adds to wider discussions about character growth, story types, and how female characters are shown in modern storytelling.
