As used in the FSFwiki, character refers not to a real person's behavior, personality, ethics, and other qualities, but to fictional actors (and their behavior, personality, ethics, superpowers, and other qualities).
Characterization is a central concern of feminist SF studies, involving plotting in character arcs and interrelationships with various themes, subtextual themes, etc.
