TNGF
SELECTED
Caesarion
primary
A slender youth of 17 years with the delicate features of his Ptolemaic lineage, bearing the prominent nose and full lips of his mother Cleopatra. His dark, curly hair is cut short in the Roman style as a nod to his father Julius Caesar, with a diadem barely visible where it has slipped askew. His golden-brown skin glistens with nervous sweat, and his grey eyes - inherited from Caesar - dart between the Romans with wary intelligence.
Roman Centurion
primary
A hardened veteran of the Roman legions, the Centurion is a broad-shouldered man with a face weathered by years of campaigning. His nose bears the telltale scar of a broken bone, and his piercing grey eyes assess the scene with cold calculation. His hair is cropped short in the military style, showing streaks of grey.
Egyptian Courtier
secondary
A high-ranking Egyptian official, with a lean and dignified bearing. His dark, kohl-rimmed eyes reflect wisdom and sorrow, and his shaved head is adorned with a simple golden circlet denoting his status.
Roman Soldier
secondary
A seasoned legionary with a muscular build, his face weathered by years of service. His dark eyes are sharp and alert, scanning the courtyard for any sign of resistance. A scar runs along his left forearm, a testament to past battles.
Slave Boy
background
A young servant boy, no more than twelve years of age, with a thin frame and short-cropped dark hair. His large, almond-shaped eyes are wide with fear, and his olive skin is damp with nervous sweat.

Dialog

Caesarion By the will of Amun-Ra, I, Ptolemy Caesar, son of the divine Julius, surrender this blade...
Roman Centurion Spare us the barbarian incantations. State your Roman name clearly for the record.
Caesarion (swallowing hard) Caesarion... son of Gaius Julius Caesar... by Cleopatra Philopator...
Roman Centurion That's the problem, isn't it? Rome has no need for two sons of Caesar.
Caesarion Then let my blood water the sands quickly, lest my mother's gods grow impatient!
