TNGF
SELECTED
Sailor Leader
primary
A rugged German sailor in his early 30s, with a muscular build from years of naval labor. His sun-weathered face bears a jagged scar across his left cheek, and his piercing blue eyes burn with defiance. Short, straw-colored hair sticks out from under his cap, and his hands are calloused from rope work.
Naval Officer
primary
A stern, middle-aged man in his late 40s with a rigid posture, sharp features, and a closely trimmed salt-and-pepper beard. His piercing blue eyes convey authority and frustration. He stands tall with a military bearing, his uniform immaculate despite the chaos around him.
Young Sailor
secondary
A wiry young man in his late teens, with a pale complexion and sunken cheeks from months at sea. His light brown hair is cropped short in military fashion, and his blue eyes dart nervously between the Sailor Leader and the Naval Officer. His hands tremble slightly, and his posture is tense, as if ready to bolt at any moment.
Officer's Aide
secondary
A young man in his early 20s, with a lean build and sharp features. His short, dark hair is neatly combed, and his clean-shaven face shows the faintest hint of stubble from a long day. His posture is rigid, a testament to his military training, but his eyes betray a flicker of unease.
Injured Sailor
background
A gaunt sailor in his late 20s with sunken cheeks and hollow eyes, his left leg heavily bandaged with blood seeping through the cloth. His right arm hangs limply at his side, the sleeve of his uniform torn and stained. His skin is pale from blood loss, and his lips are cracked from dehydration.
Dialog
Sailor Leader
We won't sail to our deaths for your pride! The war is lost—can't you see that?
Naval Officer
You will obey your orders, or face court-martial! This is treason!
Young Sailor
But what if... what if we just... refuse? They can't hang us all...
Sailor Leader
Aye, lad. They can't. And they won’t. The tide’s turning—stand with us.
Naval Officer
You disgrace the uniform! The Fatherland demands your service!
Sailor Leader
The Fatherland? Or the admirals who’ve bled us dry? No more.
Young Sailor
I... I’m with them. I won’t die for nothing.
