Fan Casting The Dutiful Child(The Dutiful Daughter, The Dutiful Son)

Role added by eclipsestarling on September 8, 2023

Make Suggestion

Description of The Dutiful Child (The Dutiful Daughter, The Dutiful Son):

The Dutiful Son stays to take care of the farm or other family duties when Troubled, but Cute up and leaves or The Hero gets The Call. His attitude at the protagonist's return (it's rare he gets the spotlight) varies between uppity, jealous, and happy. Even if he's happy, expect him to lay the moral smackdown on the hero for leaving, although he'll eventually forgive the sibling before the work's end. Despite the name, this trope is not Always Male; female examples are less common but still present.
