Character development doesn't refer to character improvement in a moral or ethical respect. It refers to broadening the audience's understanding of that character, giving the character a deeper background, clearer motivations, a unique voice.
Developing a character is about making them seem more like a real person, and real people are flawed. Real people make mistakes. They repeat mistakes. They do things other people don't agree with. Real people are more than just 'good' or 'bad' and character development is about showing all of those other aspects of them.
Their interests and hobbies. The song that gets stuck in their head. The fact that their vacuum broke 3 months ago and they haven't gotten it fixed yet. All of those details help build out the character and develop them more.
And yes, characters change as stories progress but that doesn't mean they get 'better' in a strict moral sense. It means that their experiences change the way they interact in the world you've written for them. Just like real people do.
âď¸ âď¸ âď¸
There are literally negative change arcs in character building that can often go one of 3 ways:
1) Disillusionment arc - a naĂŻve character is enamored by an ideal world which is revealed to them, by the climax of the story, to be ugly and corrupt
Examples: Nick from The Great Gatsby, Javert from Les Miserables, Galinda from Wicked (on Broadway), Eiji from Banana Fish
2) Fall arc - character starts off in a negative place, and theyâre offered a glimpse of what life could be like in the light but they ultimately reject it to stay in the dark - this rejection of the light is often to remain in a comfortable negative belief or delusion thatâs often borne from trauma
Examples: Teddy from Shutter Island, Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights, Sasuke from Naruto (most of shippuden until the ending deux ex machina), Ellie from The Last of Us 2, Walter White from Breaking Bad, Ash Lynx from Banana Fish
3) Corruption arc - character starts knowing and believing in the âright pathâ, and as the story progresses, they stray from that path when their resolve is tested. Theyâre offered opportunities to return to the light but ultimately choose darkness - this rejection of the light is often out of anger, a need for revenge, or a hunger for power
Examples: Anakin from Star Wars (Episodes I-III), Voldemort from Harry Potter, Sasuke from Naruto (pre-Shippuden), Eren from Shingeki no Kyojin (tho thereâs still potential for a plot twist)
While a negative change arc can paint a character as evil, this is often not their intent, and similar to what OP said, character arcs are meant to show backstory so that motivation in the current story is believable irrespective of how moral that motivation is. These types of arcs are usually tragedies, and often meant to be cautionary tales, but also the realistic outcomes and consequences of abuse, oppression, trauma, etc. In some cases, this technique is used in longer series to show a characterâs descent into darkness before a redemption arc later on in their chronological story.
If you want to read stories where the character improves (often, but not always morally; itâs a discovery plot at its heart) then youâll want to look at positive change arcs. These include redemption arcs.
If youâre looking for a story where the character changes the world around them (often a positive moral lesson, but this is not always the case, and may be a moral that the protagonist carries) then youâll want to look at flat character arcs, aka âTesting Plotâ.
If you want to read more about elements of story and character building I HIGHLY recommend checking out K.M. Weilandâs books on writing, as that is where I learned the above details.
