TNGF
SELECTED
Charles I of Anjou
primary
A tall, imposing figure in his late 40s with a strong, angular face, piercing blue eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard. His posture exudes authority, with broad shoulders and a commanding presence that fills the space around him.
Pope Clement IV
primary
A tall, gaunt man in his late 60s with a prominent aquiline nose and deep-set, piercing eyes. His thin white hair is neatly tonsured in the clerical fashion, and his hands are long-fingered with prominent veins.
Angevin Knight
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face, a thick brown beard, and piercing blue eyes. His hands are calloused from years of wielding a sword, and a faint scar runs across his left cheekbone.
Cardinal Deacon
secondary
A gaunt man in his late 50s with sharp cheekbones and a neatly trimmed grey beard. His deep-set eyes are framed by thin eyebrows, giving him an air of perpetual solemnity. His hands are delicate yet strong, accustomed to holding sacred texts.
Sicilian Nobleman
background
A middle-aged man of noble bearing, with a lean but strong build, sharp Sicilian features, and dark, piercing eyes that betray his unease. His olive skin is weathered from years of Mediterranean sun, and his black hair is streaked with silver, pulled back in a short, practical nobleman's style.
