In short, when the author gets so [[Character Focus|incredibly fixated on a single character, family or group]] that he or she forgets that they have [[Loads and Loads of Characters|an incredibly diverse and powerful cast]], many of whom are more interesting than the focus character (or at least that's what everyone will think when they're not getting screen-time). A handful of characters might have [[Story Arc]]s, while everyone else seems to lack any motivation whatsoever or is caught in an [[Offstage Waiting Room|infinite loop]].
