Setting

The grand council chamber of Basel Town Hall, a high-ceilinged room with large Gothic windows and a long wooden table at the center. The walls are adorned with tapestries depicting historical events, and the floor is covered with intricately woven rugs. The room is filled with delegates from the Swiss Confederacy and the Holy Roman Empire, seated around the table.

TNGF
SELECTED
Swiss Delegate
primary
A middle-aged man of sturdy Alpine build, with a square jaw and piercing blue eyes that reflect both determination and wariness. His sun-weathered face bears the marks of a life spent in mountainous terrain, and his hands, though well-groomed for this occasion, show traces of callouses from handling weapons.
Imperial Delegate
primary
A middle-aged man of noble bearing, with a sharp, angular face framed by a neatly trimmed beard streaked with gray. His piercing blue eyes convey both intelligence and a calculating nature. His posture is upright, exuding authority, and his hands are well-manicured, suggesting a life free from manual labor.
Scribe
secondary
A middle-aged monk with a lean, ascetic build, his face framed by a neatly trimmed tonsure. His hands are ink-stained from years of meticulous transcription, and his sharp eyes dart between the delegates and his parchment with practiced efficiency.
Guard
background
A tall, broad-shouldered Swiss halberdier in his late 20s, with a stern, clean-shaven face and piercing blue eyes. His weathered skin and calloused hands suggest years of military service. He wears his hair cropped short, a practical choice for a soldier.

Dialog
