Archetype is the original pattern or model from which all things of the same kind are copied or on which they are based; a model or first form. In English literature, this frequently is tied to a reoccurring type of character.
Examples include:
Faust and his deal with the devil by trading his soul for something he wants.
The snake in Adam and Eve tempting innocent people to commit a sin.
