Virtue ethics is a system of ethics the emphasizes on virtues or on the moral character of the people. This means that it is based on what the people had done if the person has done bad things then he has bad moral character.
Supposing that a person needs help, then someone that practices virtue ethics will eventually help him or her, he would help him or her because the person helping is doing charity or benevolence.
De-ontological ethics is a system of ethics that judges the morality ( if it is good action or if it is a bad action ) of an action if the action is based on some rules or duties. So De-ontological do their actions according to a rule or duty. It is an ethic based on external rules but virtue ethics is based on internal character.
Virtue ethics focuses on character of a person, and how that will influence ones action, De-ontological is rule based like ( stealing is wrong)
