TNGF
SELECTED
Alexander III of Scotland
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his mid-40s with a strong, regal bearing now broken by injury. His face is weathered from years of rule, with a thick reddish-brown beard streaked with grey. His piercing blue eyes, normally commanding, are now clouded with pain. His body lies twisted at an unnatural angle, with visible bruising and a deep gash on his forehead from the fall.
Royal Guard
primary
A burly man in his late 30s with a weathered face, short-cropped dark hair, and a thick beard. His muscular build is evident even under his armor, and his piercing blue eyes reflect both alertness and concern. A scar runs diagonally across his left cheek, a testament to past battles.
Squire
secondary
A young man in his late teens, slender but wiry from years of physical labor. His face is smooth with the remnants of youth, though his eyes are wide with fear. His hands are calloused from handling horses and equipment.
Local Guide
secondary
A wiry, middle-aged man with sun-weathered skin and deep-set eyes that have seen many storms. His hands are calloused from years of navigating the treacherous coastal paths, and his frame is lean but strong from constant movement.
