An omniscient narrator
Omniscient means “all-knowing.” Omniscient narrators know what is happening at all times throughout the book.  They know the thoughts, feelings, and backstories of all the characters (or a specific character or character group for limited omniscient.) Usually, omniscient narrators are written in third person (he/she/they/them) but there are a few exceptions to this.
