Usage Note
Personaje refers to a character in a story, film, or play, but also to a notable or colourful real-life figure (un personaje histórico). It is always masculine regardless of the character's gender — el personaje femenino. Do not confuse with persona, which means simply 'person'.
Examples
"El personaje principal es muy interesante."
Natural Translation
The main character is very interesting.
