> character style - applied to an entire paragraph 

The character style (CS) is not meant to format paragraphs, it applies on
single words or phrases and comes on top of the paragraph style (PS). For
example, you can define the PS "Citation" in italic and a CS "InnerCitation" in
normal weight.

Example: <i>He heard quiet steps behind him.</i> That didn't bode well.

From start to end of the CS formatted part it will adopt the copied text.

Example: <i>He heard quiet [didn't bode] steps behind him.</i> That didn't bode
well.

And of course it also takes what your copy from

Example: <i>He heard quiet steps behind him.</i> That didn't <i>heard
quiet</i>bode well.

The same happens with directly formatted text.
