I'm creating a shopkeeper today, any kind of specific design features she should have?
I've got a general kind of idea but I don't fully know what I'm going for

@Sirterrance neat! so then she would need some kind of cloak; i think it would look shady if the cloak covered her eyes or left a large shadow over her face -- usually the face is a way to judge a person's character/intentions, so if you want the character to seem shady and unreadable you can cover the face (you probs already know that lol but i'm just stating my reason for the design). also does she have a backstory? that would help in coming up with a design, clothing, color scheme
Ooo cool, ye I think it'd be cool if she like grew up on the streets of a dangerous city and like had to take care of herself :0
cool! i'm thinking she'll have some kind of tool belt, maybe potions? and lots of pockets for carrying things around if she doesn't have a home to store things at. also maybe some kind of bag/satchel. i'd keep the color scheme darker to convey her shadiness. maybe gloves, perhaps she likes to keep her skin covered (if she's more secretive/reclusive/likes keeping hidden)
Ooo!! That's a good idea!!! Thank you! :)
@Sirterrance np :D
