Setting
London city gates at Aldgate, with the towering stone walls and heavy wooden gates partially breached by the rebels. The cobbled streets are chaotic, with debris scattered around. Burning buildings in the background send plumes of smoke into the sky, and the air is thick with tension.

TNGF
SELECTED
Wat Tyler
primary
A rugged and sinewy man in his early 40s with sun-weathered skin and a face lined with the hardships of peasant life. His dark hair is streaked with grey, tied back with a leather thong, and his piercing brown eyes burn with the fire of rebellion. A jagged scar runs from his left temple to jawline—a memento of past confrontations. His hands are calloused from years of labor, now gripping a makeshift weapon.
City Guard Captain
primary
A grizzled veteran in his late 40s, with a stocky, muscular build honed by years of military service. His face is weathered with deep lines, a jagged scar running from his left temple to his jawline. His steel-gray hair is cropped short beneath his kettle helm, and his piercing blue eyes scan the chaos with tactical precision.
Rebel Archer
secondary
A wiry peasant man in his late 20s with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands from years of field labor. His dark hair is matted with sweat and tied back with a strip of leather. Sharp hazel eyes track targets with practiced precision, his lean frame tensed like a drawn bowstring.
Royal Messenger
secondary
A lean noble youth of approximately 18 years with sharp cheekbones and wind-chapped lips. His fair hair is cropped short beneath a velvet cap, and his piercing blue eyes scan the chaos with urgency. A faded scar runs diagonally across his left eyebrow—likely from training mishaps rather than battle.
Blacksmith
background
A burly, middle-aged man with broad shoulders and muscular arms, his face streaked with soot and sweat. His hands are calloused from years of working iron, and his dark hair is tied back with a leather strap. His beard is short and unkempt, flecked with grey.
Dialog
Wat Tyler
Break the gates, brothers! The lords have bled us dry—now we thresh them like rotten wheat!
City Guard Captain
Hold the barricade, curse your hides! Loose arrows on those torches!
Royal Messenger
Captain! His Majesty commands you fall back to the Tower—these churls breach more gates by the hour!
Wat Tyler
Ye hear that, lads? The pup-king trembles! Forward—for bread and justice!
City Guard Captain
By Christ's bones... Messenger, tell His Grace we'll hold till the last shaft flies.
Royal Messenger
Fool! The order comes sealed—would you have London's blood on your hands?
Wat Tyler
The blood's already flowing—but now it's theirs! To me, ye true men of England!
