You can't validate the type on run time im afraid but you can create the type like this

type CustomChar = typeof(path.to.char)

local HChar: CustomChar = Player.Character

you can make it a table yeah and if check every single component manually

i dont think i fully understand ?

function test(self:BallInstance,Character:Model)
    local Character : Character = Character :: Character
    print(typeof(Character))
    self._holdercharacter = assert(Character,"Invalid Character") :: Character 
    
    self._holdercharacter["Humanoid"] = assert(Character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") :: Humanoid,"Character with no humanoid ????")
    self._holdercharacter["Animator"] = assert(self._holderhumanoid:WaitForChild("Animator") :: Animator?)
    self._holdercharacter["HumanoidRootPart"] = assert(Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart") :: BasePart,"HRP not found!")
end
