TNGF
SELECTED
Wat Tyler
primary
A rugged, sinewy man in his late 30s with sun-weathered skin and deep-set eyes that burn with conviction. His muscular frame bears the marks of hard labor—calloused hands and a slight forward hunch from years of toil. Dark brown hair, streaked with grey, falls unevenly to his shoulders, and a fortnight's worth of stubble covers his angular jaw. A fresh scar runs along his left cheekbone from recent skirmishes.
King Richard II
primary
A slender youth of 14 years with delicate features, fair complexion, and shoulder-length golden hair. His pale blue eyes betray a mix of royal composure and adolescent uncertainty. Though slight in stature, he carries himself with regal posture.
William Walworth
secondary
A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with a square jaw and piercing eyes that reflect his no-nonsense demeanor. His face is weathered from years of public service, and his posture exudes authority. His hands are calloused, suggesting a history of both commerce and combat.
Rebel Archer
secondary
A wiry, sunburnt peasant man in his late 20s with calloused hands and a lean, muscular build from years of labor. His dark hair is cropped short under a worn leather cap, and his face bears the scars of childhood malnutrition. His eyes are sharp with the focus of a hunter.
Royal Guard
background
A burly knight in his late 30s, standing tall with broad shoulders and a weathered face marked by old battle scars. His steel-grey eyes constantly scan for threats, and his close-cropped beard shows flecks of grey. His chainmail glints dully under the overcast sky, and his surcoat bears the royal crest.

Dialog

Wat Tyler By Christ's bones, we'll have our rights or see this field run red as harvest apples!
King Richard II Good man Tyler, we do hear thy grievances—
Wat Tyler Hear? Nay, act! These parchments ye wave mean naught to men who starve while bishops feast!
William Walworth Enough! Thou'lt not threaten His Grace!
King Richard II Walworth, stay thy—
Wat Tyler Ha! The hound bites when his master—
William Walworth For treason!
