Setting

Rolling Lombard farmlands near Agnadello, with trampled wheat fields and scattered vineyards. The battlefield is littered with fallen soldiers, broken weapons, and abandoned carts. A narrow dirt road cuts through the fields, now churned into mud by hooves and boots.

TNGF

SELECTED

Bartolomeo d'Alviano

primary

A seasoned Venetian commander in his late 40s, with a muscular build and a weathered face marked by years of campaigning. His dark hair is streaked with grey, and his piercing eyes reflect both intelligence and the strain of battle. A recent wound on his left arm is hastily bandaged with torn fabric.

French Captain

primary

A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face, piercing blue eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard. His muscular frame bears the scars of numerous battles, and his commanding presence is unmistakable.

Venetian Soldier

secondary

A rugged man in his late 20s, with a muscular build from years of military training. His face is weathered by sun and battle, with a fresh cut across his left cheek. His dark hair is matted with sweat and dust, tied back in a simple leather thong.

French Archer

secondary

A lean, wiry man in his late 20s with sun-weathered skin and sharp, focused eyes. His hands are calloused from years of drawing bowstrings, and his stance is steady despite the chaos around him. A faint scar runs along his left cheekbone, likely from a past skirmish.

Local Farmer

background

A middle-aged man with a wiry build, sun-weathered skin, and calloused hands from years of labor. His face is lined with premature wrinkles from constant exposure to the elements, and his dark hair is streaked with gray, tied back loosely with a leather cord.
