TNGF
SELECTED
Henry IV
primary
A man in his early 30s, with a strong, regal bearing. His face is angular, with a prominent nose and piercing eyes that command attention. His dark hair is slightly receding, and he wears a neatly trimmed beard.
Archbishop of Canterbury
primary
An elderly man with a gaunt, ascetic face, deep-set eyes that seem to peer into the soul, and thin, white hair barely visible beneath his mitre. His hands are gnarled with age but move with deliberate grace.
Nobleman
secondary
A tall, middle-aged man with a well-groomed beard and piercing blue eyes. His face bears the lines of both age and worry, and his posture is upright, reflecting his noble status. His hands are clasped tightly in front of him, betraying his inner tension.
Abbey Clerk
secondary
A middle-aged man with a lean build, hunched slightly from years of bending over parchment. His face is clean-shaven, with sharp features and deep-set eyes that squint from prolonged work in dim light. His hands are stained with ink, and his fingers are calloused from holding a quill.
Guard Captain
background
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face, a thick beard, and piercing blue eyes that scan the crowd with military precision. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons, and a prominent scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past battles.

Dialog

Henry IV By the grace of God and the will of the people, I accept this sacred burden.
Archbishop of Canterbury In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, I crown thee Henry, King of England.
Nobleman A new era dawns, though the shadows of the past linger long.
Henry IV Let none doubt the divine right by which I rule, nor the justice of my claim.
Archbishop of Canterbury May the Lord guide thy hand and shield thy reign from all treachery.
Nobleman Treachery wears many faces, Your Grace. Even in hallowed halls.
Henry IV Then let those faces be known, and meet the swift justice they deserve.
