I’m guessing by “incidental” OP means a minor character who kind of steals the show from the main cast in the little screen time they get and incidentally become more popular than intended.
Maybe we can get some clarification on that.

Yeah i mean you pretty much explained that perfectly.. maybe i should have said minor character.. but i felt like incidental felt more like what i was going for.. the character thats only briefly in a scene or two but steals the scene
