They would lose any magical powers they may have had in the book, but anything they are, rather than can do, will stay. For example people from the His Dark Materials world would keep their daemons. You can take them out at any time in the story’s plot, but for all other people consuming the media, it will be shown that the character suddenly disappears, with the rest of the plot being affected accordingly. People will notice this happening. The character is not under any sort of control by you once you have taken them out of the story, although they will appear next to you to start with.

God from the bible. The whole book will just be a bunch of ancient stories nobody should care about anymore. Would be interesting to see what the world would be like without Christianity.

Probably not as long as people are going around devoting their lives to make-believe. That never ends well.

Bizarrely, God is the main antagonist in the Old Testament in terms of plot.

So the stories would be more boring but also a lot calmer.

Great answer… But now you’ve caused God to actually exist IRL!
