TNGF
SELECTED
Oliver Cromwell
primary
A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with a strong jawline and piercing eyes that reflect both determination and religious fervor. His face is weathered from years of campaigning, and his hair is cropped short in the Puritan style, with a prominent wart above his right eyebrow.
Sir Thomas Fairfax
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his early 30s with a strong, angular face. His dark brown hair is cropped short, and he sports a well-trimmed beard. His piercing blue eyes reflect both intelligence and resolve. His hands are calloused from years of military service, and his posture exudes authority.
Royalist Officer
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man with a weathered face, his piercing blue eyes reflecting the desperation of the moment. His dark brown hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a simple queue.
New Model Army Soldier
secondary
A lean, wiry man in his late 20s with a weathered face marked by the hardships of war. His short-cropped brown hair is tucked under his iron helmet, and his piercing blue eyes reflect unwavering discipline. His hands are calloused from years of handling musket and pike.
Royalist Soldier
background
A weary and disheveled man in his late 20s, with a gaunt face streaked with dirt and sweat. His sunken eyes show exhaustion, and his unkempt brown hair clings to his forehead. His posture is slumped, and his hands tremble slightly from fatigue and fear.

Sir Thomas Fairfax Their left flank buckles. Send the cavalry now, and we break them.
Oliver Cromwell Aye, and let every man remember he fights not for earthly glory, but for God's own cause!
Royalist Officer Stand fast, you dogs! Would you have them say we ran like whipped curs? For King and Country!
