TNGF
SELECTED
John IV of Brittany
primary
A robust man in his late 30s with a square jaw and piercing blue eyes that betray both intelligence and wariness. His dark brown hair is cropped short in the Norman style, and a neatly trimmed beard frames his face. His hands bear the callouses of a warrior, though his posture carries the dignity of a duke.
Charles V of France
primary
A tall, slender man in his late twenties with sharp, intelligent features. His dark brown hair is neatly trimmed, and his pale complexion is accentuated by a carefully groomed beard. His piercing blue eyes convey both authority and a calculating mind.
Breton Scribe
secondary
A thin, middle-aged man with a slightly hunched posture from years of bending over manuscripts. His sharp features are framed by short, dark hair streaked with grey, and his pale complexion suggests long hours spent indoors. His hands are stained with ink, and his fingers are calloused from holding a quill.
French Scribe
secondary
A middle-aged man with a lean build, sharp features, and a neatly trimmed beard. His hands are stained with ink, and his fingers show the dexterity of a practiced scribe. His eyes are keen and observant, reflecting his attention to detail.
Breton Noble
background
A middle-aged man of noble bearing, with a strong, weathered face framed by a neatly trimmed beard. His piercing blue eyes reflect both wariness and hope. His build is sturdy, suggesting a lifetime of martial training, though his posture now carries the weight of years of conflict.
French Guard
background
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face and a short, well-groomed beard. His piercing blue eyes scan the room with disciplined alertness, though there's a subtle softening around them as he observes the peace negotiations. His hands, calloused from years of wielding weapons, rest lightly on the pommel of his sword.

Dialog

John IV of Brittany The Duke sees the terms laid before him, and finds them... acceptable. Yet let it be known that Brittany bows to no man, only to God and her own laws.
Charles V of France By the grace of God, we are pleased to see wisdom prevail. Let this treaty stand as a testament to the unity of our realms, each under their rightful sovereign.
John IV of Brittany Unity, you say? Aye, but let it be a unity of equals, n'est-ce pas? Brittany's ports and levies remain her own.
Charles V of France Indeed, Duke John. The terms are clear, and the Crown of France honors them. Yet remember, even the mightiest oak must bend before the storm winds of necessity.
John IV of Brittany Necessity, or the point of a French sword? No matter. The Duke signs for peace, not for love of Paris.
Charles V of France Then let this quill's ink bind us more surely than blood ever could. The war ends today.
John IV of Brittany So be it. But mark this well, Charles—Brittany remembers.
