TNGF
SELECTED
Adolf of Nassau
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his early 30s with a strong, angular jawline and piercing blue eyes. His close-cropped light brown hair is slightly tousled, and he sports a short, well-trimmed beard. His hands are calloused from years of martial training, and his posture exudes both regal bearing and military discipline.
Archbishop of Mainz
primary
A tall, imposing figure in his late 50s with a gaunt, ascetic face framed by a neatly trimmed white beard. His piercing blue eyes command attention, and his posture exudes authority. His hands are slender, with long fingers that often gesture gracefully when speaking.
Elector of Cologne
secondary
A middle-aged man with a sturdy frame, his sharp features marked by a neatly trimmed beard streaked with grey. His piercing blue eyes survey the assembly with calculated scrutiny, while his strong jawline suggests both authority and stubbornness.
Noble Attendant
secondary
A lean man in his early thirties with sharp, watchful eyes and a clean-shaven face. His dark brown hair is cut short in the fashion of the lesser nobility, and his hands, though bearing the callouses of a man accustomed to wielding a sword, are well-kept.
Cathedral Guard
background
A broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face and close-cropped dark beard. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons, and a faint scar runs across his left cheekbone. His steel-gray eyes constantly scan the crowd with practiced vigilance.

Dialog

Archbishop of Mainz By the grace of God and the collective will of the Electors, we do hereby proclaim Adolf, Count of Nassau, as King of the Romans and future Emperor of this sacred realm.
Adolf of Nassau By this pledge and on my oath, I accept this honor not for my own glory, but as a servant to the Empire and protector of Christendom.
Elector of Cologne Would it not be prudent, most reverend brother, to first secure binding assurances regarding the imperial prerogatives of the ecclesiastical electors?
Archbishop of Mainz Peace, brother. The hour is for coronation, not negotiation. Let us first witness the proper obeisances.
Adolf of Nassau The shield of empire shall not falter while I hold its hilt. To this I pledge my lands, my blood, and my faith before God and these witnesses.
