Characters

Conrad II
primary
A robust man in his early 40s with a square jaw and piercing blue eyes that command attention. His dark brown hair is neatly trimmed, and his beard is short and well-groomed, reflecting his status as a ruler. His posture exudes authority, and his broad shoulders suggest a lifetime of military training.
Pope John XIX
primary
A middle-aged man of average height with a slightly rounded build, his face framed by a neatly trimmed beard and thinning dark hair. His hands are smooth, indicating a life of clerical work rather than manual labor. His piercing eyes convey both wisdom and authority.
German noble
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 40s with a neatly trimmed beard streaked with gray. His piercing blue eyes survey the scene with quiet intensity, and his weathered face bears the marks of a life spent in both court and campaign.
Italian noble
secondary
A middle-aged man with a lean, aristocratic build, sharp features, and dark, piercing eyes. His olive complexion and neatly trimmed beard mark him as distinctly Italian among the predominantly German attendees. His posture exudes quiet authority despite his subordinate position in this ceremony.
Clergy member
background
A middle-aged priest with a gaunt face and deep-set eyes, his slightly stooped posture suggesting years of devout service. His thinning gray hair is neatly tonsured in the Roman clerical style, and his hands are clasped in prayer, their veins prominent with age.
Roman citizen
background
A middle-aged man of average Roman stature, with sun-weathered skin and dark, curly hair streaked with gray. His build is lean but strong, typical of a laborer or small tradesman. His hands are calloused from work, and his posture suggests a life of physical toil.
