TNGF

SELECTED

Charles of Blois

primary

A nobleman in his late 40s, with a gaunt but determined face, deep-set eyes, and a prominent nose. His once-fine features are now lined with the strain of years of warfare. His dark hair is streaked with grey, and his beard is neatly trimmed but shows signs of battle wear.

John of Montfort

primary

A robust man in his early 30s, with a square jaw and piercing blue eyes that reflect both determination and battle-weariness. His face is tanned from years of campaigning, and a scar runs from his left temple to his cheekbone, a testament to previous conflicts. His dark brown hair is cropped short, and his beard is neatly trimmed, though now streaked with dust and sweat.

Sir John Chandos

secondary

A tall, well-built English knight in his late 40s, with a weathered face marked by years of campaigning. His piercing blue eyes survey the battlefield with a veteran's calm. His dark brown hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a practical warrior's knot. A prominent scar runs from his left temple to cheekbone - a souvenir from Crécy.

Bretonsoldier

secondary

A rugged Breton soldier in his late twenties, with a wiry build and sun-weathered skin. His face is streaked with dirt and sweat, and his dark hair is matted under a padded coif. A fresh cut on his cheekbone bleeds slightly, mixing with the grime of battle.

Englisharcher

background

A wiry, sun-browned man in his late twenties, with a lean but muscular build from years of archery practice. His face is streaked with dirt and sweat, and his short-cropped brown hair is matted under a simple cloth coif. His hands are calloused from drawing the powerful longbow, and his forearms bear faint scars from past battles.

Dialog

Charles of Blois Stand firm, men of Brittany! Let not these wolves of England and their traitorous allies break our line! For God and our rightful cause!

John of Montfort Press them hard! Chandos, have your archers loose another volley—let them feel the sting of English yew!

Sir John Chandos Aye, my lord. Archers! Nock, draw—loose! Like driving boar into nets, eh?

Charles of Blois So be it. If this day is my last, I shall meet it with a clean soul and a sword in hand. Jupiter, witness me!

John of Montfort Charles! Yield, for mercy's sake! Your cause is lost—spare what remains of your men!

Charles of Blois Never! Better to die a prince than live a beggar. Strike, if you dare!

Sir John Chandos God’s bones, the man’s got the heart of a lion. Pity he chose the wrong side of history.
