Setting

A devastated battlefield near Flers-Courcelette, France. The landscape is a maze of shell craters, shattered trees, and barbed wire entanglements. The remnants of a small village lie in ruins, with only fragments of walls standing amidst the destruction. The ground is churned into a muddy wasteland, littered with debris from the ongoing battle.

TNGF
SELECTED
Lieutenant Smith
primary
A young British officer in his mid-20s, with a lean but wiry build from months of campaigning. His face is smeared with mud and soot, accentuating piercing blue eyes that scan the battlefield with focused intensity. His short brown hair is visible beneath his peaked cap, and a neatly trimmed mustache frames his upper lip.
Sergeant Brown
primary
A grizzled, middle-aged non-commissioned officer with a square jaw and close-cropped salt-and-pepper hair. His face bears the weathered lines of years in service, with piercing grey eyes that miss nothing. Broad-shouldered and solidly built, he moves with the economical efficiency of a career soldier.
Private Wilson
secondary
A wiry young infantryman in his early 20s, standing about 5'8" with a lean build. His face is smeared with mud and sweat, his eyes wide with a mix of fear and determination. His short brown hair is matted under his helmet, and his hands grip his rifle tightly.
Medic Harris
secondary
A wiry man in his late 20s with a gaunt face darkened by grime and exhaustion. His short brown hair is matted with sweat beneath his helmet, and his eyes are bloodshot from lack of sleep. His hands are stained with dirt and dried blood, moving with practiced efficiency despite fatigue.
German Sniper
background
A concealed enemy marksman hidden within the ruins of the village. His exact features are obscured by the rubble and his camouflage, but glimpses reveal a lean, wiry build adapted for stealth. His face is partially covered by a sniper's veil, with only his sharp, calculating eyes visible, scanning the battlefield through his rifle scope.

Dialog

Lieutenant Smith Sergeant Brown, advance your section to that ruined wall—keep low and watch for machine gun nests.
Sergeant Brown Aye, sir. Wilson, you're with me—stay tight and move quick, lad.
Private Wilson Right, Sarge—but I swear I saw movement in that cellar hole, sir!
Sergeant Brown Eyes sharp then, but don't freeze up. Keep moving—Jerry won't wait for you.
Lieutenant Smith Steady on, men. Remember your intervals—no bunching up.
Private Wilson Christ, Sarge—that shell just took Jenkins clean—
Sergeant Brown Not now, lad! Keep your head or you'll join him. Forward!
