TNGF
SELECTED
Wat Tyler
primary
A rugged, sinewy man in his late thirties with sun-weathered skin and deep-set eyes that burn with conviction. His dark brown hair is cropped short and flecked with grey, framing a face marked by years of labor and conflict. A recent scar runs along his left cheekbone. Though lean, his frame carries the wiry strength of a man accustomed to hard work.
William Walworth
primary
A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with a weathered face marked by years of civic duty. His piercing eyes betray a sharp intellect and steely resolve. His thick, dark hair is streaked with grey, and his jaw is set with determination. His hands, though bearing the calluses of a merchant, grip his dagger with practiced ease.
Rebel Archer
secondary
A wiry man in his late twenties, with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands from years of drawing a bow. His lean frame suggests a life of hardship and physical labor. Dark, unruly hair falls to his shoulders, and a short beard frames his angular face. His keen eyes, accustomed to scanning distances, now dart between his fallen leader and the armed men before him.
King's Guard
secondary
A burly man in his late 30s with a weathered face marked by old scars. His thick arms suggest years of sword training, and his stance is that of a seasoned soldier. His dark brown hair is cropped short beneath his helmet, and his piercing blue eyes scan the crowd warily.
