TNGF

SELECTED

Bartolomeo d'Alviano

primary

A rugged Venetian condottiero in his late 40s, with a muscular build honed by decades of warfare. His face is weathered, marked by a prominent scar running from left temple to jawline. Dark, piercing eyes beneath thick brows survey the battlefield with tactical precision. His short-cropped salt-and-pepper beard shows flecks of mud from the fray.

Venetian Standard Bearer

secondary

A rugged soldier in his late twenties, with a muscular build from years of military training. His face is streaked with sweat and dirt, his dark beard matted with grime. His hands are calloused from gripping the heavy standard pole.

French Cavalry Captain

secondary

A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face marked by a deep scar running from his left temple to his jawline. His dark brown hair is cropped short beneath his helmet, and his piercing blue eyes survey the battlefield with calculated intensity. His muscular build and upright posture betray years of military training.

Wounded Venetian Soldier

background

A young Venetian infantryman in his mid-20s, with a lean but muscular build from years of military training. His face is streaked with mud and blood, his dark hair matted with sweat and grime. A deep gash runs across his left thigh, staining his hose crimson, while his right hand clutches at a wound in his abdomen. His breathing is labored, his skin pale from blood loss.
