TNGF
SELECTED
Julius Caesar
primary
A tall, lean man in his mid-50s with sharp features, a receding hairline, and piercing dark eyes. His face bears the marks of age and campaigns, with deep lines around his mouth and forehead. His posture is typically erect, though now faltering from wounds.
Marcus Brutus
primary
A lean, middle-aged Roman senator with sharp features, deep-set eyes, and a furrowed brow. His dark hair is receding slightly, and his face bears the marks of both privilege and stress. His hands are well-kept but show the calluses of a man who has wielded both the stylus and the sword.
Gaius Cassius Longinus
secondary
A lean, intense Roman senator in his early 40s with sharp features, deep-set dark eyes, and a closely trimmed beard. His wiry frame suggests military training, and his tanned skin speaks of time spent in the eastern provinces. His hands are calloused from sword practice, and his posture is taut with nervous energy.
Senator A
secondary
A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean but sturdy build, his face lined with the stress of political life. His dark hair is streaked with grey, and his sharp features are accentuated by a neatly trimmed beard. His eyes are wide with shock, and his skin has gone pale.
Senator B
background
A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean build, sharp features, and short, graying hair. His face is lined with stress, and his eyes are wide with panic. He has a slightly hunched posture from years of political maneuvering.
Dialog
Julius Caesar
Tu quoque, Brute? Then fall, Caesar.
Marcus Brutus
Libertas et res publica, Caesar. The gods bear witness to our necessity.
Julius Caesar
How sweet... the knives... of men I called friends...
Marcus Brutus
Would that Rome required less of us this day.
