TNGF
SELECTED
Mary, Queen of Scots
primary
A striking woman in her mid-twenties, tall and regal with pale skin, high cheekbones, and piercing dark eyes. Her auburn hair is partially concealed beneath a French-style hood, with loose strands whipping in the wind. She carries herself with the bearing of a monarch despite her precarious situation.
James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray
primary
A tall, lean man in his late 30s with sharp, angular features and piercing blue eyes. His dark auburn hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a short tail. His face bears the marks of a life spent in political and military struggles.
Highland Captain
secondary
A rugged Highlander with a thick red beard streaked with grey, his face weathered by years of campaigning. His piercing blue eyes scan the battlefield with a mix of determination and concern for his men.
Cavalry Officer
secondary
A seasoned officer in his late 30s, with a weathered face marked by years of campaigning. His build is lean but muscular, honed by years of riding and combat. His piercing blue eyes scan the battlefield with a practiced gaze, and a thick, well-groomed beard covers his jawline. A prominent scar runs from his left temple to his cheekbone, a testament to past battles.
Pikeman
background
A rugged Highlander, his face weathered by the harsh Scottish climate and years of training. His broad shoulders and calloused hands speak of a life spent wielding the pike.
