Answer all these questions and you should have a fully-developed character for your audience to connect with.
A strong character can carry a weak plot; but a strong plot can’t carry weak charactersoh

Very useful stuff.
Some resources for those writing medieval-type stories:

I’m gonna type up a little explination on how things are done and exactly what to do:
Minees
- Draw the outline in a color similar to the eye color but make it darker than the eye as a whole
- chose a tint slightly lighter than the outline for the dark part of the eye
- draw a shine of the original eye color
- draw a white shine in place of a pupil
Squeaktothehand
- draw a black outline with the pupil
- fill in the eye with a darker version of the original eye color
- draw a shine with the original eye color
- draw a shine line of a lighter version of that color and some sun/light shinies
Realistic Animal
- Draw an outline with the pupil
- color in the base color
- with a soft brush, paint a shadow around the top and pupil
- more soft brush— paint a lighter version of the base color along the bottom
- eyes have segments so take the base color and start lightly painting those in
- moar painting segments and a little bit of the lighter shine line. Reflections are good so paint a window in the eye if the animal is inside and LIGHTLY create a soft eye shine. Just keep painting and messing with it until you think it looks good. Sometimes I spend about 10 minutes on just one eye alone
hopefully this helps! and before you do the animal eye, make sure you know the shape of the animal you’re drawing. The one I did was for a generic canine.))
