TNGF
SELECTED
Jan Žižka
primary
A grizzled, middle-aged military leader with a muscular build, weathered skin, and a prominent scar where his right eye once was. His remaining left eye is sharp and piercing, reflecting years of battlefield experience. His posture is commanding despite his injuries.
Hussite Peasant Leader
secondary
A grizzled man in his late 40s with a wiry but strong build from years of hard labor. His face is deeply lined, with a broken nose and a thick, unkempt beard streaked with gray. One ear is partially missing from a past battle. His hands are calloused and scarred, gripping a makeshift mace.
Crusader Knight
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered knight in his late 30s, his face weathered from years of campaigning. His steel-gray eyes burn with fervor beneath a dented great helm, and a thick beard, streaked with premature gray, covers his square jaw. His armor bears the dents and scratches of previous battles, and his surcoat is smeared with mud and blood.
Hussite Archer
background
A determined peasant woman in her late 20s, with sun-weathered skin and strong, calloused hands from years of labor. Her straw-colored hair is tied back in a practical braid, and her piercing blue eyes are focused intently on her targets. She has a wiry, muscular build from years of farm work and recent months of warfare.
Crusader Foot Soldier
background
A weary, wounded man in his late 20s with a gaunt face streaked with dirt and blood. His matted brown hair clings to his forehead with sweat, and a deep gash runs across his left forearm. His mail coif hangs askew, revealing a purpling bruise along his jawline. His movements are labored, favoring his right leg where an arrow shaft protrudes just above the knee.
Dialog
Crusader Knight
Yield, heretic! Lay down your arms and submit to God's justice!
Jan Žižka
Justice? You kneel before gold, not God. Here, we stand for truth!
Hussite Peasant Leader
More pitch ready! Let them burn like chaff in the fields!
Crusader Knight
By the Holy Cross, we will root out this heresy! Charge again!
Jan Žižka
Hold the line—wagons tight! The Lord shields the righteous.
Hussite Peasant Leader
They break against us like waves on stone! Bring the hooks!
Crusader Knight
Fall back! The devil shields these dogs!
