TNGF
SELECTED
Ramón de Cardona
primary
A tall, imposing figure in his late 40s, with sharp features and a well-groomed beard streaked with gray. His piercing dark eyes convey both intelligence and ruthlessness. His posture is erect, befitting a military commander, and his hands are calloused from years of wielding a sword.
Spanish Captain
secondary
A burly man in his late 30s, with a weathered face marked by scars from previous battles. He has a thick black beard and piercing dark eyes that reflect years of military experience. His muscular build and confident stance mark him as a seasoned soldier.
Florentine Defender
secondary
A middle-aged militiaman with a wiry build and a weathered face, his dark eyes filled with desperation. His short, graying beard and unkempt hair show signs of prolonged struggle. A fresh cut on his forehead bleeds slightly.
Medici Loyalist
secondary
A middle-aged man of slight build, with a well-groomed beard and sharp features. His face is flushed with exertion and fear, his dark eyes wide with panic. His hands are soft, indicating a life of wealth and privilege.
Baker
background
A middle-aged man with a stocky build, his face dusted with flour and sweat. His hands, rough from years of kneading dough, are clenched tightly around a wooden rolling pin. His apron is stained with dough and ash, and his hair is disheveled from the chaos.
