Direct characterization is a statement about a character's personality, appearance, habits, goals, values and beliefs.

Direct characterization is present when the author or another character describe the traits of a character through the use of adjectives, descriptive phrases or epithets. In other words, by means of direct characterization, a writer can show different characteristics of a character, such as his/her appearance, motivations, and personality, in a explicit way to his audience. In contrast, indirect characterization presents a character’s traits in an indirect way, that is, through the use of dialogue or an action.

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
