King Harold II

primary

A tall, broad-shouldered man in his mid-40s with a weathered face, piercing blue eyes, and a thick, battle-worn beard. His muscular frame shows the strength of a seasoned warrior, with scars visible on his arms and hands from previous battles. His long, unkempt brown hair is tied back with a leather thong, and his face is streaked with sweat and dirt.

William the Conqueror

primary

A robust Norman duke in his late 30s, standing tall with a commanding presence. His face is weathered from years of campaigning, with piercing blue eyes and a strong jawline partially hidden by a short, well-groomed beard. His muscular build is evident even beneath his armor, and his left hand bears a distinctive scar from a past battle.

Saxon Shield Bearer

secondary

A burly Saxon warrior in his late 20s, with a thick beard and sun-weathered skin. His muscular frame is built for endurance, bearing scars from previous battles. His blue eyes are sharp with focus beneath his iron helmet.

Norman Knight

secondary

A mounted Norman warrior in his late 20s, with a muscular build and a face weathered by battle. His piercing blue eyes are visible through the narrow slit of his conical helmet, which is adorned with a simple nasal guard. A thick, dark beard covers his lower face, and his hair is cropped short in the Norman fashion.

Saxon Archer

background

A wiry man in his late twenties, with sun-browned skin and a close-cropped beard. His arms are sinewy from years of drawing a bow, and his eyes are sharp with focus. A fresh cut on his cheek drips blood, unnoticed in the heat of battle.

Norman Squire

background

A lean young man in his late teens, with sun-browned skin and short, tousled brown hair. His face is smudged with dirt and sweat, and his bright blue eyes are wide with a mix of excitement and fear. He has a wiry build, typical of someone accustomed to hard labor and constant movement.
