TNGF
SELECTED
William the Conqueror
primary
A powerfully built man in his late thirties with a sturdy frame developed from years of warfare. His face is strong-jawed with piercing dark eyes that command attention, framed by short-cropped dark hair and a neatly trimmed beard. His nose bears the slight crookedness of an old battle wound, adding to his formidable presence.
Norman Noble
secondary
A broad-shouldered Norman lord in his late 40s with a weathered face marked by a faded scar across his right cheekbone. His steel-grey beard is meticulously trimmed in the Norman fashion, and his piercing blue eyes survey the scene with predatory satisfaction. His muscular frame suggests decades of warfare, and he stands a full head taller than most Anglo-Saxons present.
Anglo-Saxon Bishop
secondary
An elderly, gaunt man with deep-set, weary eyes and a prominent nose. His thin white hair is neatly tonsured in the Roman fashion, and his hands are gnarled with age, yet steady in their duty. His posture is slightly stooped, a lifetime of devotion bending his frame, but his bearing remains dignified.
English Thegn
background
A middle-aged Anglo-Saxon nobleman of sturdy build, with a weathered face framed by a thick, greying beard. His piercing blue eyes, though shadowed, betray a sharp intelligence and deep-seated resentment. His hands, calloused from years of wielding a sword, are clenched at his sides.
Norman Guard
background
A burly Norman soldier in his late twenties, with a weathered face and a thick beard. His muscular build is evident under his chainmail, and his sharp blue eyes scan the room vigilantly. A faded scar runs across his left cheekbone, a remnant of past battles.
