knight in light armor main character and background design

Lindy is a little, shy, but also conscious princess. Her skin is too fragile, and sun can hurt her. That's why she almost never leave her castle
MADNESS ON THE ROOF main character design
In 17-18th century France, a street performer and his assistant live together. But the aristocrats are the ones who suffer for it
Street performer- Eleanor- is a young, very eccentric and slight crazy man, who is nevertheless a master of his craft. The common people and other artists adore him, but the nobility and aristocrats can't stand him, because he often makes fun of them, despite being of lower social standing. Taking aristocrat's hat for a while, being insolent to the nobility, and then running away from guards and mad officials- that's all in a day's work for him, almost like a hobby. Moreover the guards themselves are lauthing at this and don't want to punish him severely.
Assistant- Joseph- is his complete opposite. This is a 14-year-old boy who often runs after him, trying to get him out of trouble, but often participating in his escapes. he is timid, more "sensible" and fears the consequences for Eleanor. Despite the troubles, he often learns tricks from him and recalls these chases with laughter. If absolutely nothing happens in a day, Joseph gets uneasy.
