Romeo and juilet by Shakespeare write a character description of frir lawrence.

He only gives Juliet the potion because she's desperate and threatens suicide, and although he flees from the tomb, he's willing to tell the whole story, even if it condemns him.

For this you can almost call Friar Lawrence a "maturing character," and how he changes throughout the story.
