TNGF

SELECTED

Geoffrey Litster

primary

A burly man in his late 30s with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands that speak of years of labor. His dark hair is matted with sweat and streaked with premature gray, tied back with a strip of cloth. His eyes burn with a mix of desperation and defiance, framed by deep lines of hardship. Though his frame is muscular from years of dyeing work, he moves with the awkwardness of someone unused to wielding a sword.

Bishop Henry le Despenser

primary

A middle-aged man of imposing stature, with a strong, broad frame that speaks of both noble lineage and martial training. His face is weathered, with sharp, hawk-like features and piercing blue eyes that burn with conviction. His dark hair is streaked with grey, cropped short in the clerical fashion, and his beard is neatly trimmed. Despite his clerical status, his bearing is that of a warrior, with the scars of past battles faintly visible on his hands and face.

Rebel Archer

secondary

A wiry peasant man in his late twenties, with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands from years of labor. His lean frame shows the marks of hard living, but his grip on the longbow is steady. Dark hair, matted with sweat, clings to his forehead beneath a simple cloth cap.

Knight Captain

secondary

A seasoned knight in his late 30s, with a muscular build and a weathered face marked by old battle scars. His piercing blue eyes are framed by a square jaw covered in a short, well-trimmed beard. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons, and his posture exudes disciplined military bearing even atop his warhorse.

Peasant Woman

background

A middle-aged woman with a wiry frame, her face lined with hardship and streaked with dirt and sweat. Her dark hair is partially covered by a simple linen coif, and her hands are rough from years of labor. She moves with urgency, her muscles straining as she drags the wounded rebel.

Dialog

Geoffrey Litster Hold fast, lads! Like wool in the vat, we take the color or we don't—today we stand or we bleed!

Bishop Henry le Despenser By the grace of God and the authority of His Church, I command you rebels to lay down your arms! This blasphemous revolt ends now.

Knight Captain Conroi ready, Your Grace. Their flanks are exposed like an unarmored squire.

Geoffrey Litster Your God wears gold while our children starve! We'll not kneel again!

Bishop Henry le Despenser Then by the blood of Saint George, you shall be broken upon the anvil of divine justice. Deus vult!

Knight Captain Lances down. At the trot—advance!

Geoffrey Litster For every stripe they've laid upon us—give it back threefold!
