Symbolic Antagonists - DIFFERENT than protagonist - contrast the protagonist to show what they need to become, what they need to learn, or (sometimes) the protagonist's attributes.

Mirror Characters - SIMILAR to protagonist - have exaggerated versions of the protagonist's flaws, so that the protagonist has to deal with those flaws externally. Sometimes a Mirror Character contains the protagonist's attributes, and can be used to show the protagonist taking the wrong road and getting into trouble.

Symbolic Characters are a great way to take an internal struggle and dramatize it. To take a "man against himself" conflict and turn it into situations where different aspects of that self are represented by different characters - so that we can *see* the struggle.
