Setting

Near the town walls of Pfeddersheim, a chaotic battlefield stretches across a sun-baked field. The ground is trampled and uneven, dotted with makeshift barricades of overturned carts and broken farming tools. The town walls loom in the background, their stone surfaces pockmarked with arrows and scorch marks.

TNGF
SELECTED
Georg Truchsess von Waldburg
primary
A middle-aged man in his late 40s, with a stern, weathered face marked by years of military campaigns. His steel-gray hair is cropped short, and his piercing blue eyes survey the battlefield with cold calculation. He has a muscular build, honed by years of wearing heavy armor and wielding weapons. A prominent scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past battles.
Peasant Leader
primary
A rugged man in his late 30s, with a wiry but strong build from years of labor. His face is weathered by sun and toil, with deep-set eyes that burn with defiance. A jagged scar runs from his left temple to cheekbone, a mark from past conflicts. His hands are calloused and grip a makeshift spear with practiced ease.
Knight Lieutenant
secondary
A battle-hardened knight in his early 30s, with a muscular build from years of combat training. His face is weathered, with a prominent scar running from his left eyebrow to his cheekbone, a testament to past battles. His piercing blue eyes are sharp and alert, constantly scanning the battlefield.
Farmer
secondary
A gaunt, sun-weathered man in his late 30s with wiry muscles from years of labor. His face is streaked with dirt and sweat, and his hands are calloused from working the land. His hair is unkempt and straw-like, and his beard is patchy and unshaven.
Mercenary
background
A battle-hardened soldier in his late 30s, with a muscular build and numerous scars visible on his arms and face. His sun-weathered skin and missing front tooth speak to years of combat experience. His dark hair is cropped short under a padded coif, and his cold grey eyes scan the battlefield with detached professionalism.
