With me it depends on the character, if my main pov character meets a new character and she's really taking notice of them for one reason or another to do with the story I am generally a but blunt as well as adding what she thinks of one feature of another.
My secondary character who I tell...
My personal thought is that if you have a character story you want to tell you could place it in any world. Maybe develop a character you're passionate about, but don't pigeon hole them by what world they're from, then if you have the urge set them in a fantasy setting. If you like fantasy just...
I'm still on my first play through.

The story I am writing is based in a "Ancient times " type fantasy world.
Lately I have had a lot of wounded characters and would greatly appreciate if anyone has any knowledge in healing from ancient times.
For example how to heal an arrow wound to the shoulder and/or a sword wound to...
