TNGF
SELECTED
Muhammad XII (Boabdil)
primary
A man in his late 30s with a slender yet dignified build, olive skin, and dark, sorrowful eyes. His black beard is neatly trimmed, and his face bears the weight of defeat. His hands, though steady, show subtle tremors as he holds the keys.
Ferdinand II of Aragon
primary
A robust man in his early 40s, with a strong jawline and piercing dark eyes. His short, dark brown hair is slightly graying at the temples, and he sports a well-groomed beard. His posture exudes authority and confidence.
Isabella I of Castile
primary
A woman in her early forties with a strong, regal bearing. Her face is oval-shaped with high cheekbones, piercing blue eyes, and a determined jawline. Her auburn hair is partially visible beneath her elaborate headdress, showing signs of gray at the temples. Her posture is upright and commanding, with hands clasped firmly in front of her.
Spanish Captain
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face, a neatly trimmed beard, and piercing blue eyes. His posture is rigid, reflecting his military discipline.
Moorish Noble
secondary
A tall, dignified man in his late 40s with a neatly trimmed beard and piercing dark eyes. His posture remains erect despite the sorrow weighing upon him, and his hands are clasped tightly behind his back.
Spanish Soldier
background
A young, wiry soldier in his mid-20s with sun-weathered skin and a short, scruffy beard. His dark brown eyes are alert but weary from years of campaigning. He stands at average height with a lean, muscular build typical of infantrymen who've marched across Iberia.

Ferdinand II of Aragon Your people shall keep their laws and worship, as we have sworn. This we pledge before God and men.
Isabella I of Castile Let this surrender be remembered not as an ending, but as the beginning of a new era under God's grace.
