TNGF
SELECTED
Rebel Leader
primary
A rugged man in his late 30s, with a wiry but strong build from years of hard labor. His face is weathered, with deep lines from sun and toil, and a thick, unkempt beard. His dark eyes burn with intensity, and his hands are calloused and scarred from farm work.
John of Gaunt
primary
A tall, imposing nobleman in his early 40s with sharp aristocratic features, a neatly trimmed beard, and piercing blue eyes that convey both intelligence and arrogance. His posture remains rigid despite the chaos, with broad shoulders that carry the weight of his royal lineage.
Guard Captain
secondary
A battle-hardened soldier in his late 30s, with a muscular build and a scar running from his left eyebrow to his cheekbone. His short, dark hair is matted with sweat, and his piercing blue eyes are filled with determination and fear. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons, and his stance is that of a man ready to fight to the death.
Peasant Woman
secondary
A sturdy woman in her late 30s with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands, her muscular frame built from years of labor in the fields. Her dark hair is tied back with a frayed cloth, strands escaping to frame her face. There's a wildness in her eyes, a mix of fury and liberation.
Young Rebel
background
A wiry teenage boy with sunburnt skin and wild, unkempt brown hair. His face is smudged with soot and his knuckles are scraped from recent fighting. His eyes burn with youthful fervor, reflecting both excitement and rage.

Dialog

Rebel Leader By the blood of our children and the sweat of our brows, we take back what's ours! Burn the Duke's pride to ashes!
John of Gaunt You dare lay hands upon the property of Lancaster? The king's justice shall fall upon you like the hammer of God.
Guard Captain To the south gate! Form ranks! Pike-men to the fore!
Rebel Leader Your 'justice' is the lash and the taxman's purse! Today we write our own laws with fire and steel!
John of Gaunt Captain, mark well these faces. Every villein here shall answer for this treason when order is restored.
Guard Captain My lord, the east wing's lost. We must get you to the river stairs.
Rebel Leader See how the mighty tremble! Let their fine tapestries feed the flames!
