TNGF
SELECTED
Cleopatra VII
primary
A woman in her early twenties, with a statuesque and graceful build. Her skin is a warm Mediterranean hue, and her face bears the delicate features of the Ptolemaic line. Her most striking feature is her large, dark eyes, which exude both intelligence and weariness. Her hair is styled in the traditional Egyptian manner, with tight curls framing her face, adorned with small golden beads.
Royal Physician
secondary
A middle-aged man of Greek descent, with a lean, wiry build and sharp, observant eyes that reflect years of medical study. His dark hair is streaked with silver, tied back in a simple knot. His hands are clean and precise, showing the care of a practiced healer.
Handmaiden
secondary
A young Egyptian woman in her early twenties, slender with graceful movements. Her dark hair is neatly braided and adorned with simple golden beads. Her almond-shaped eyes are lined with kohl, and her skin is smooth and lightly perfumed with myrrh. She moves with quiet efficiency, her bare feet silent on the marble floors.
Roman Guard
background
A battle-hardened legionary in his early 30s, with a muscular build from years of military training. His face bears the weathered tan of Mediterranean campaigns, with a recently healed scar across his left cheekbone. Close-cropped dark hair and a clean-shaven jawline mark him as a disciplined soldier of Caesar's forces.
Caesarion
primary
A newborn infant with delicate features, tiny fingers curled into fists, and a soft tuft of dark hair. His skin is slightly flushed from the exertion of birth, and his eyes are still tightly closed against the world. His small frame is wrapped in fine linen, with a faint golden sheen from the royal oils applied to his skin.

Dialog

Cleopatra VII Look at him, Physician—his brow bears the mark of Amun himself. As Horus rose to avenge Osiris, so shall this child rise.
Royal Physician He is vigorous, Your Majesty. His limbs move with strength, and his cries are as a war trumpet—clear and full of promise.
Cleopatra VII Fetch the golden amulet of Isis. Let her protection shield him before even the first moon passes.
Royal Physician A wise precaution, though his lungs are strong as a legionary's. I have seen few newborns so... remarkably formed.
Cleopatra VII Then Rome shall hear his first cry echo across the sea. But for now... let him know only his mother's voice.
