TNGF
SELECTED
Frederick I Barbarossa
primary
A commanding figure in his late 50s with a sturdy build, broad shoulders, and a weathered face marked by decades of military campaigns. His distinctive red beard (earning him 'Barbarossa') is streaked with gray, and his piercing blue eyes project authority. His left hand bears an old sword scar across the knuckles.
Lombard League Delegate
primary
A middle-aged man of sturdy build with a closely trimmed beard and sharp, observant eyes that reflect both intelligence and wariness. His sun-weathered face suggests years of travel and negotiation.
Archbishop of Konstanz
secondary
A tall, gaunt man in his late 50s with a prominent aquiline nose and deep-set grey eyes. His thin lips are framed by a carefully groomed grey beard, and his high forehead bears the faint marks of age. His hands are long-fingered and expressive, often held in positions of blessing or mediation.
City Notary
secondary
A middle-aged man with a wiry build, his face marked by the lines of a life spent in careful study and record-keeping. His hands are ink-stained from years of writing, and his keen eyes scan documents with practiced precision. His posture is slightly hunched from long hours at a desk.
Imperial Guard
background
A tall, broad-shouldered soldier in his late 30s with a weathered face marked by a faded scar across his left cheekbone. His piercing blue eyes constantly scan the surroundings with military precision. His stance suggests years of combat experience, with calloused hands resting lightly on his sword hilt.

Dialog

Frederick I Barbarossa By the sacred authority vested in us by God, we set this seal upon the Peace of Constance. Let it be known that the Emperor grants these liberties not from weakness, but from wisdom.
Lombard League Delegate As the scales balance in the marketplace, so too shall this treaty balance the rights of free cities with imperial dignity. We accept these terms as sworn at Piacenza.
Archbishop of Konstanz May this concord be as enduring as these cathedral stones, blessed by Christ who makes peace between princes and peoples.
Frederick I Barbarossa The imperial lion yields not to hares, but to the greater good of Christendom. Let the Lombards remember this mercy when next they reckon their obligations.
Lombard League Delegate As the river Po flows freely yet nourishes all lands it touches, so shall our cities prosper while honoring the imperial crown.
Archbishop of Konstanz In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti, we witness this holy accord. Let the bells proclaim this day throughout Swabia and Lombardy alike.
