TNGF
SELECTED
Charles V of France
primary
A slender young man of 26 years with sharp, intelligent features and dark brown hair cropped neatly at the shoulders. His pale complexion is accentuated by the candlelight, and his deep-set blue eyes reflect both solemnity and quiet determination. His posture is erect with the bearing of one raised for royalty, though a slight tension in his jaw reveals the weight of the moment.
Archbishop of Reims
primary
An elderly man in his late 60s, with a gaunt face marked by deep wrinkles around his eyes and mouth. His thin white hair is neatly tonsured in the clerical fashion, and his slightly stooped posture belies the strength of his voice. His hands are notably steady despite his age, with long fingers accustomed to performing sacred rites.
Duke of Burgundy
secondary
A middle-aged nobleman with a commanding presence, his sharp features framed by a neatly trimmed beard. His piercing blue eyes survey the scene with calculated intensity, and his broad shoulders suggest a lifetime of martial training.
Bishop Auxerre
secondary
A middle-aged man of slight build with a gaunt face and deep-set eyes that reflect years of devotion. His thinning grey hair is neatly tonsured, and his hands, though delicate, show the strength of one accustomed to holding sacred objects with reverence.
Count of Flanders
secondary
A middle-aged nobleman with a sharp, angular face and piercing blue eyes. His dark brown hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a neat queue. He has a well-groomed beard and a slightly hunched posture from years of riding and warfare.
Royal Guard Captain
background
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face, a close-cropped beard, and piercing blue eyes. His muscular frame suggests years of military training, and a faint scar runs along his left cheekbone, a testament to past battles.
