A cursed young woman from the affluent Fortier family.

@Axew22@aureo9850 If you look up the definition of the “trope”, having low screen time or importance is not given as a criteria. The original list includes Gwen Stacy.
Fridging was never an intelligent criticism.
I refuse to fridge my female characters.
When the hero’s wife is brutally murdered, he will not be motivated and instead continue his work at the convenience store.
@Axew22@aureo9850 You do realize the only distinction you’re making is execution, right? Not the trope itself.
But I’ll humor the arbitrary rules you’re making and provide another example, Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru.
They die to push forward Luke’s arc with no relevance of their own. And it works.
