Queen Hildegard, Princess Rosemarie, Prince Gunnar, and Johann the Knight all look like "perfect" examples of their looks-obsessed cultures. Queen Bellynda looks foreign, which feeds the people's suspicion and disregard for her. Family resemblances are vital to the plot, as certain characters remind people of other characters, coloring their perceptions of those characters. And also, there is magic in my story, which sometimes transforms the way people look and thus how they are treated and how they behave. <br /><br />Drawing characters would be fun! Last month I did a post on "visualizing characters" using photo morphing. That's also fun but can be a giant time suck. :)Jean Michelle Miernikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08971882597502010124noreply@blogger.com
