SELECTED

William the Conqueror

primary

A robust, middle-aged man of average height with a muscular build, his face weathered from years of campaigning. His dark hair is cropped short in the Norman style, and his piercing blue eyes survey the battlefield with keen intensity. A prominent scar runs along his left cheek, a testament to past battles.

Harold II

primary

A tall, broad-shouldered man in his mid-40s with a weathered face, piercing blue eyes, and a thick beard streaked with grey. His muscular frame bears the scars of many battles, and his right hand is missing two fingers from a previous conflict. Blood seeps from multiple wounds, including a grievous injury to his thigh and a deep gash across his forehead.

Norman Knight

secondary

A battle-hardened Norman cavalry officer in his late 30s, with a muscular build and a face weathered by years of campaigning. His dark brown hair is cropped short in the Norman style, and a thick beard partially conceals a jagged scar running from his left cheekbone to jawline. His piercing blue eyes scan the battlefield with tactical precision.

Saxon Thegn

secondary

A burly Anglo-Saxon noble in his late 30s, standing tall with broad shoulders and a muscular build. His face is weathered from years of battle, with a thick beard streaked with dirt and blood. His piercing blue eyes show determination despite the chaos around him. A deep scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past conflicts.

Norman Archer

background

A wiry, sun-browned man in his late twenties with close-cropped dark hair and a sparse beard. His arms are sinewy from years of drawing bows, and his face bears a fresh scar across the left cheekbone. His eyes are narrowed in concentration, scanning the battlefield for targets.

Saxon Warrior

background

A young Anglo-Saxon soldier in his early 20s, of average height with a wiry but strong build. His face is smeared with dirt and blood, and his fair hair is matted with sweat and grime. His blue eyes are wide with fear and exhaustion.
