TNGF
SELECTED
King Charles I
primary
A man of regal bearing, with a slender frame and a face marked by the cares of war. His dark, pointed beard is neatly trimmed, and his hair falls in soft waves to his shoulders. His pale complexion contrasts with the dark circles under his eyes, a testament to his recent imprisonment.
Executioner
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered figure clad in a black executioner's hood and cloak, concealing his identity. His hands are large and calloused, gripping the executioner's axe with practiced ease.
Officer
secondary
A stern-faced parliamentary official, with a rigid posture and piercing gaze. His features are sharp, with a neatly trimmed beard and cold, calculating eyes.
Weeping Woman
secondary
A middle-aged woman with a weathered face, her hands worn from labor. Her hair is tucked under a simple linen cap, and her cheeks are streaked with tears.
Soldier
background
A stern-faced guard in his late 30s, with a weathered complexion and a rigid posture. His piercing eyes scan the crowd for any signs of disturbance, his jaw clenched tightly.
