TNGF
SELECTED
Karl Renner
primary
Middle-aged man with a slightly stocky build, short salt-and-pepper hair, and a neatly trimmed mustache. His round spectacles sit firmly on his nose, giving him an intellectual appearance. His face shows the weariness of prolonged political strain.
Allied Representative
primary
A tall, middle-aged man with a stern, angular face, sharp blue eyes, and a closely trimmed salt-and-pepper mustache. His posture is erect, exuding authority, and his hands are well-groomed, indicative of a life of diplomacy rather than labor.
Austrian Aide
secondary
A young man in his late twenties with a slender build and slightly hunched shoulders. His light brown hair is neatly combed but shows signs of nervous tousling. His pale complexion is flushed with anxiety, and his blue eyes dart between documents and the proceedings.
French Protocol Officer
background
A middle-aged man of average height with a slender, upright build. His neatly trimmed mustache and short, combed-back hair give him a polished appearance. His sharp, observant eyes scan the room with practiced efficiency.

Dialog

Allied Representative The terms are as stated, Chancellor Renner. By signing, you acknowledge the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the independence of its former territories.
Karl Renner I am well aware of what this signature entails, Monsieur. We are not here by choice, but by necessity.
Allied Representative Necessity, indeed. It is expected that German-Austria will comply fully with the disarmament clauses and reparations.
Karl Renner Compliance does not erase the suffering of our people. But today, we endure this for their future.
Allied Representative The Allies have shown restraint in these terms. Others would have demanded far more.
Karl Renner Restraint? A nation dismembered is no small mercy.
Allied Representative The treaty is now in effect. The consequences of refusal were made clear.
