TNGF
SELECTED
Giovanni Dario
primary
A middle-aged Venetian commander with a weathered face, deep-set eyes, and a prominent aquiline nose. His short, graying beard is neatly trimmed, and his muscular build suggests years of military training. A fresh cut on his left cheek marks the recent battle.
Ottoman Commander
primary
A tall, imposing man in his late 40s with a well-groomed dark beard streaked with gray. His broad shoulders and upright posture exude authority, and his piercing dark eyes assess everything with military precision. A faded scar runs diagonally across his left cheekbone, a testament to years of warfare.
Janissary Captain
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face marked by a prominent scar running from his left temple to his jawline. His dark eyes are sharp and observant, framed by thick eyebrows. His beard is neatly trimmed in the Ottoman style, and his muscular build suggests years of rigorous training.
Venetian Knight
secondary
A middle-aged Venetian nobleman with a muscular build, bearing the marks of battle. His face is streaked with dirt and sweat, with a deep gash across his left cheek. His dark brown hair is matted and unkempt, and his piercing blue eyes burn with defiance. His right arm is bandaged hastily with a torn piece of cloth, stained with blood.
Venetian Soldier
background
A weary Venetian defender in his late 20s, with a lean but muscular build from years of military service. His face is streaked with dirt and sweat, and a fresh bruise darkens his left cheekbone. His short brown hair is matted under a dented sallet helmet.

Dialog

Giovanni Dario By the grace of God and the will of the Senate, I deliver unto you the keys of Negroponte, as one merchant honors a contract when the tide turns against him.
Ottoman Commander Allah has written this day in His book since before time began. Your walls stood bravely, but the ink was dry before the first stone was laid.
Venetian Knight Per San Marco! These dogs don't deserve our courtesy after what they've done to the women in the lower city!
Ottoman Commander Let no man touch another soul in this fortress. Constantinople fell with more grace than this—we shall not shame the Sultan's victory with common pillage.
Giovanni Dario My knight speaks from grief, not wisdom. But mark this—Venice keeps accounts in blood as well as gold. This debt will be remembered.
Ottoman Commander Then let your ledgers show this day clearly—it was written that the lion of St. Mark would withdraw his claws before the crescent moon.
Venetian Knight Deus vult... but not this day.
