TNGF
SELECTED
King Charles I
primary
A man in his early 40s with a slender yet regal bearing, standing at average height. His face is framed by a meticulously groomed pointed beard and mustache, with deep-set eyes that betray both intelligence and a growing despair. His pale complexion is flushed from exertion and the heat of battle, and his dark brown hair is slightly disheveled beneath his plumed hat.
Royalist Captain
primary
A rugged, middle-aged man with a weathered face, deep-set eyes, and a prominent scar running from his left temple to his cheekbone. His dark brown hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a simple queue. He has a muscular build, honed from years of cavalry service, and stands with the bearing of a seasoned officer.
Parliamentarian Officer
secondary
A stern-faced man in his early forties, with a lean, wiry build and a closely cropped beard. His piercing blue eyes are sharp with determination, and his weathered skin bears the marks of many campaigns. His posture is rigid, reflecting his military discipline.
Wounded Soldier
secondary
A young Royalist musketeer in his early twenties, with a lean but muscular build from years of military training. His face is smeared with dirt and gunpowder, and his fair hair is matted with sweat and blood. A deep gash on his left thigh stains his breeches crimson, and his right hand clutches his side where a musket ball has pierced his buff coat.
Townswoman
background
A middle-aged woman with a sturdy build, her face streaked with dirt and sweat. Her hair is partially covered by a linen coif, with loose strands sticking to her forehead. Her hands are rough from labor, and her apron is stained with blood and grime.
Dialog
King Charles I
By God's grace, we shall hold this town! Captain, rally your men to the square!
Royalist Captain
Aye, Your Majesty! Musketeers, form ranks by the church! Pike men, hold the alleyways!
Parliamentarian Officer
Press the attack! The Lord has delivered these Papist dogs into our hands!
King Charles I
Do they think to defy their anointed king? Captain, we must break their line ere they flank us!
Royalist Captain
Sire, the left flank buckles! If we don't fall back now, we'll be cut off!
Parliamentarian Officer
See how their vaunted Cavaliers falter! Forward, for Parliament and liberty!
King Charles I
Then let us make our stand here, Captain. If this be God's will, so be it.
