TNGF

SELECTED

Julius Caesar

primary

A tall, lean man in his mid-50s with sharp features, a receding hairline styled in the traditional Roman manner, and piercing dark eyes that command attention. His face bears the marks of age and campaigns, with deep lines around his mouth and forehead. His posture is upright, exuding authority and confidence.

Marcus Brutus

primary

A lean, aristocratic Roman man in his early 40s with sharp features, deep-set thoughtful eyes, and a closely trimmed beard. His posture is upright, betraying his noble upbringing, though his hands betray slight tension.

Gaius Cassius

secondary

A lean and wiry man in his early 40s with sharp, angular features and piercing dark eyes. His short, dark hair is slightly disheveled, and his face bears the marks of years spent in military campaigns—a few scars and a permanently sun-weathered complexion.

Senator A

A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean build, sharp features, and thinning dark hair. His face is lined with worry, and his eyes dart nervously around the chamber. His hands are slightly trembling, and he frequently adjusts the folds of his toga.

Senator B

background

A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean but sturdy build, his face lined with the marks of years spent in public service. His dark hair is streaked with gray, combed neatly back in the traditional Roman style. His sharp, observant eyes are framed by thick brows, and his jaw is set with determination.

Dialog

Julius Caesar What strange business brings you all so close this day, my friends? The Senate chamber reeks of sweat and iron.

Cassius No business but Rome's, Dictator. We come bearing petitions... of a most urgent nature.

Brutus The ides have come, Caesar. The augurs foretold—

Julius Caesar Augurs? Since when does Brutus, pupil of Athens, tremble at chicken bones?

Cassius Enough! The hour is late and Rome breathes heavy under one man's boot.

Brutus Then strike, if we must. But remember - not as butchers, but as surgeons removing Rome's cancer.

Julius Caesar Et tu, Brute? Then fall, Caesar!
