TNGF
SELECTED
Macbeth
primary
A battle-hardened warrior in his late 40s, with a muscular frame bearing the scars of countless conflicts. His face is weathered, with deep-set eyes that burn with a mix of desperation and defiance. His dark hair is streaked with grey, tied back with a leather thong, and his beard is short and unkempt from weeks of campaigning.
Malcolm III
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late twenties with a strong, angular jawline and piercing blue eyes that reflect both his royal lineage and battle-hardened resolve. His dark brown hair is shoulder-length, tied back with a leather thong to keep it from his face during combat. A fresh scar runs diagonally across his left cheekbone, a recent token of war.
Macbeth's Bodyguard
secondary
A burly warrior in his late 30s, standing a head taller than most men with shoulders broadened by years of combat. His face bears the marks of battle - a jagged scar runs from left temple to jawline, and his nose has been broken multiple times. Dark brown hair, matted with sweat and blood, is tied back with a leather thong. His hands are calloused and grip his weapon with practiced ease.
Malcolm's Standard Bearer
secondary
A rugged Highlander in his late twenties, with a wiry but strong build honed by years of campaigning. His face is weathered by wind and war, with a thick red beard matted with sweat and mud. Piercing blue eyes burn with fervor beneath a furrowed brow. A fresh scar runs from his left temple to jawline, still pink with healing.
Wounded Warrior
background
A young Gaelic warrior in his mid-20s, lean but muscular from years of training. His face is streaked with mud and blood, his dark brown hair matted with sweat. A deep gash runs across his left thigh, leaving a trail of blood as he crawls. His right hand clutches a broken spear shaft for support.

Hold fast, ye sons of Alba! Let not these southern curs steal the crown from our brows!
Malcolm III
The Usurper's line breaks! Press the center - for Dunkeld and for Scotland!

Aye, they flee like hares before the hawk! Onward!
Macbeth
Malcolm! Face me like a king, not a cutpurse skulking behind better men!

Your reign ends today, Macbeth. By steel and by right, I claim my father's throne.

Ware the left! They circle like wolves!
Macbeth
So be it then. Let Pluto judge which of us is worthy.
