TNGF
SELECTED
Galeazzo Maria Sforza
primary
A tall, imposing man in his early 30s with sharp aristocratic features, a neatly trimmed beard, and piercing dark eyes that convey both intelligence and cruelty. His posture is rigid with military bearing, and his hands are adorned with several ornate rings.
Assassin
primary
A lean but wiry nobleman in his late 30s, with sharp cheekbones and a neatly trimmed beard. His dark eyes burn with quiet intensity beneath a furrowed brow. His hands are surprisingly delicate for a man of action, but bear the calluses of a swordsman.
Nobleman
secondary
A middle-aged man of noble bearing, with a lean but muscular build, sharp cheekbones, and a neatly trimmed beard. His dark eyes betray a calculating intelligence, and his posture exudes aristocratic confidence.
Church Guard
secondary
A broad-shouldered man in his late thirties with a weathered face, a thick mustache, and deep-set eyes. His muscular build suggests years of physical labor, and a scar runs from his left eyebrow to his cheekbone, hinting at past battles.
Priest
background
A middle-aged man with a gaunt face and deep-set eyes, his thinning gray hair barely visible beneath his clerical cap. His hands are clasped tightly together, knuckles white with tension.
Dialog

Assassin
I sought only worthy entertainment, Your Grace. Today promises... greater diversions.
Galeazzo Maria Sforza
Then let us show these sheep how lions feast! Approach, and witness how Jupiter's chosen rewards both loyalty... and ambition.

As you command... tyrant.
