TNGF

SELECTED

Malcolm II

primary

An aging but still imposing figure, Malcolm II stands tall with a broad, though slightly stooped, frame. His long, silver-streaked beard and weathered face bear the marks of decades of rule and battle. His piercing blue eyes, though dimmed with age, still hold a regal intensity. His hands, once strong and calloused from wielding a sword, now show the fragility of his years.

Noble Conspirator

primary

A tall, broad-shouldered nobleman in his late 40s with sharp, angular features. His dark hair is streaked with silver, tied back with a leather cord, and his piercing grey eyes betray a calculating intelligence. His hands are calloused from years of swordplay, and a faint scar runs from his left temple to his jawline.

Second Noble

secondary

A middle-aged nobleman with a lean, wiry build, sharp features, and piercing dark eyes. His face is weathered from years of outdoor activities, and his hands are calloused, suggesting familiarity with weapons. His dark hair is streaked with gray and tied back in a simple knot, typical of Scottish nobility of the period.

Castle Guard

secondary

A burly man in his late 30s with a weathered face, short-cropped dark hair, and a thick beard. His muscular build suggests years of training and combat. A fresh scar runs across his left cheekbone, and his knuckles are calloused from gripping his sword.

Dialog

Malcolm II So it comes to this... betrayal in the shadows, like thieves in the night. Speak, traitor—do you dare name yourself?

Noble Conspirator Names matter little now, my king. The hour is late, and Scotland requires... new leadership.

Castle Guard Hold, my lord! The corridor’s narrow—they’ll not take us without blood.

Malcolm II Blood they shall have, then. But know this—the House of Alpin does not fall quietly.

Noble Conspirator A king’s last words... how fitting they should be wasted on pride.

Castle Guard To me, sire! We’ll hold the left—they’ll not flank us here.

Malcolm II Then let them come. I’ll meet my ancestors with steel in hand.
