The Friar

Facts About The Friar:
-Job is to beg on behalf of the poor
-Mendicant Orders of the Church
-Rude
-Selfish
-Ladies Man

Tale in 140 Characters (or less):
A Summoner meets a Yeoman that turns out to be a Devil, while on his way to a widows house to collect tithes. She curses the Summoner to Hell, where all Summoners should be.

Basically this tale degrades Summoners for there horrific actions.

Do spaces count?? cause i was just counting the letters

we dont need to know what they look like. only their tale. well thats for the "tweeting" part. anyways, do you think he will literally count 140 characters or it can be about 140 characters? aka a little more or little less?

there is no description for him in the prologue physically... but it just empasizes the fact that he is well off.. which he shouldn't be considering his job is to beg among the poor.. so that means he should be worse off than the poor but he isn't, because he isn't doing his job right.
he is infatuated with women and loves to go to taverns (bars). he knows every tavern in town

and about the 140 thing... i think it wont really matter. it's not like he's going to be counting every single person's paper..i think he just doesn't want a full out paragraph...just a short summary. ya know?
