TNGF
SELECTED
Edward IV
primary
A tall and imposing figure, standing at around 6 feet 4 inches, with broad shoulders and a muscular build. He has a fair complexion, light blue eyes, and a strong jawline. His golden-brown hair is shoulder-length and slightly wavy, crowned by a simple circlet of gold. A neatly trimmed beard frames his face, adding to his regal demeanor.
Lord Hastings
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man with a weathered face, sharp blue eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard. His bearing is that of a seasoned warrior, with a scar running from his left temple to his jawline.
Captain
secondary
A seasoned English military officer with a weathered face and a strong, upright posture. His piercing blue eyes survey the disembarkation with a practiced gaze. His short, graying hair is kept neat under a simple cloth cap.
Archer
secondary
A lean and wiry longbowman with sun-weathered skin and a focused gaze. His hands are calloused from years of drawing the longbow, and his arms are well-muscled from the repetitive motion of archery. His hair is tied back with a simple leather thong, and his face bears a few scars from past battles.
Local Merchant
background
A middle-aged French trader with a wiry frame and a weathered face, his sharp eyes reflecting years of shrewd business dealings. His dark, slightly graying hair is kept short, and his beard is neatly trimmed.
Dialog
Edward IV
The sea yields us to Calais at last. Let the men form ranks swiftly—we shall not linger where the French might strike.
Lord Hastings
Aye, my liege. The vanguard is already ashore—archers to the fore, pikemen behind. They await your order.
Captain
Move with purpose, lads! Form up by company—lances ready, shields high!
Edward IV
Hastings, send word to the Burgundians. If their promise holds, we march within the week.
Lord Hastings
It shall be done. But the townsfolk watch us closely—their loyalty is thin as spring ice.
Edward IV
Let them watch. We are not here to beg their favor, but to reclaim what is ours by right.
