You can rig grease pencil strokes. And so you need a weight paint mode.

The brush settings are covered in the chapter Editors - Properties Editor - Tools Tab - Grease Pencil Object.

Brush

Draws a weight on a stroke. This draws to the active vertex group of the grease pencil. If there is no vertex group, it will automatically create one when drawing.

Allows you to weight paint the current stroke with the settings defined in the brush panel.

EntryWhat it does
BlurSmooths out the weights of adjacent vertices of a grease pencil stroke. The strength defines how much the weights are blurred.
AverageSmooths weights by painting the average resulting value from all values under the brush.
SmearSmudges weight by grabbing the values under the brush and “dragging” them over.
Annotate toolsThe annotate tools at the end of the list are explained in the chapter 7.1.1 Editors - 3D View - Tool Shelf - Object Mode. We won't cover this tools again here.
