Core description

When writing a character description be precise and descriptive! What does your character care about? What do they do? What do they think about? How do they behave? 

Description
Madame Fortune Teller is the greatest fortune teller in the land. She will tell people what the future holds for them. She has been around since the ancient times of dragons, yet from her appearance looks to be much younger. When Madame Fortune Teller is not giving fortunes, she is tending to her beautiful flower garden. Because of her love of flowers, she often gives fortunes within metaphors about flowers, gardening, and the seasons. Sometimes it can feel like Madame Fortune Teller knows more about them than they know about themselves.
