First Defenestration of Prague

An angry Hussite mob storms the New Town Hall, seizing seven town council members and throwing them out of the windows in a violent act of defiance during religious tensions.

Setting

The New Town Hall in Prague, specifically the council chamber where the town council members are gathered. The room is spacious with high ceilings, large windows overlooking the square below, and wooden floors that creak under the weight of the mob. The square outside is filled with an agitated crowd of Hussite supporters.

TNGF

SELECTED

Hussite Leader

primary

A middle-aged man with a wiry, muscular build, his face weathered by years of hardship and fervent belief. His dark, piercing eyes burn with righteous fury, and his unkempt beard and long, tangled hair give him a wild, prophetic appearance. His hands are calloused from labor, and his stance is powerful, exuding authority.

Town Councilman

primary

A middle-aged man with a slightly portly build, thinning gray hair, and a pale complexion that has turned ashen with fear. His hands tremble visibly, and his eyes dart around the room in panic. He wears a fine but now disheveled robe, indicating his status as a member of the town council.

Guard Captain

secondary

A middle-aged man with a sturdy build, weathered face, and a thick beard streaked with gray. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons, and his eyes are sharp but weary from the strain of the moment.

Hussite Mob

secondary

A seething mass of peasants, craftsmen, and lower clergy, predominantly male with a scattering of women. Their faces are weathered from labor, some bearing scars from previous conflicts. Many wield farming tools repurposed as weapons—scythes, flails, and pitchforks—while others brandish crude clubs or stones. Their collective energy is frenzied and unrelenting.

Young Priest

background

A slender young man in his early twenties, with a pale complexion and short, dark brown hair. His deep-set eyes are filled with fervor, and his clean-shaven face is marked by the intensity of his devotion. His hands are clasped tightly together, fingers interlaced as he prays.

Hussite Leader By the blood of Jan Hus, these vipers shall fall! The windows of tyranny shall be their grave!

Town Councilman Good sirs, I beg you—mercy! We can—we can negotiate! The king will hear of this!

Guard Captain Hold the line! If they breach, we fall back—protect the council!

Hussite Leader Negotiate? Your lies choke the truth like weeds in God's vineyard! Today, Prague is cleansed!

Town Councilman Captain—do something! They mean to kill us all!

Guard Captain We’re outnumbered, my lord. If they rush us—

Hussite Leader To the windows with them! Let Prague see justice done!
