TNGF
SELECTED
Jan Žižka
primary
A grizzled, one-eyed military leader in his late 50s with a wiry but powerful build. His face is deeply lined from years of campaigning, with a prominent scar running from his forehead through the empty socket of his missing left eye. His remaining eye is sharp and piercing, constantly scanning the battlefield. His gray-streaked beard is short and unkempt, and his hands are calloused from gripping weapons.
Hussite Priest
secondary
A gaunt, middle-aged man with a wild beard and intense, sunken eyes that burn with religious fervor. His face is weathered from years of preaching outdoors, and his hands are calloused from gripping his Bible and chalice. He stands slightly hunched, as if bearing the weight of divine purpose.
Peasant Defender
secondary
A sturdy man in his late 30s with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands, his frame hardened by years of farm labor. His dark brown hair is cropped short under a simple cloth cap, and his beard is roughly trimmed. One ear bears an old scar from a childhood accident.
Crossbowman
background
A grizzled veteran in his late 30s, with a wiry but strong build. His face is weathered from years of campaigning, with a prominent scar running from his left temple to cheekbone. His hands are calloused from years of handling weapons, and his movements are efficient and practiced.
Dialog
Jan Žižka
Nock your arrows! The dogs of Rome climb like goats, but we stand as the wall of Zion!
Hussite Priest
Hear now, brethren! The fifth angel sounds his trumpet! These whoresons wear the mark of the beast!
Peasant Defender
By the blood of Christ... so many...
Jan Žižka
Aye, many come - more to feed the ravens. Loose when you see the whites of their eyes!
Hussite Priest
Fear not the sword, for the Lord has given these hills into our hands as He gave Jericho to Joshua!
Peasant Defender
As the priest says... as the priest says...
Jan Žižka
Now! Loose! Let God sort the worthy!
