SELECTED
King George VI

A slender middle-aged man with a refined yet slightly frail appearance, standing at average height. His face is gently lined with age and the visible strain of wartime leadership.

Olympic Official
secondary
A middle-aged man of average height with a slightly rigid posture, indicative of years of military or formal training. His grey-streaked hair is neatly combed back, and he sports a neatly trimmed mustache. His face is weathered with experience but carries an air of quiet authority.
Athlete Captain
secondary
A tall, well-built man in his late 20s with short, neatly combed brown hair and a clean-shaven face. His athletic physique is evident even beneath his formal Olympic attire, with broad shoulders and a straight posture that exudes confidence.
Queen Elizabeth
secondary
A poised woman in her late 40s with a slender but regal build, her light brown hair styled in soft waves beneath her hat. Her complexion is fair with a rosy tint, and she carries herself with quiet dignity. Her blue eyes reflect both warmth and keen observation.
Stadium Announcer
background
A middle-aged man with a strong, authoritative presence, his voice amplified by the stadium's PA system. He is unseen by the crowd, positioned in the announcer's booth. His demeanor is professional, with a clear, resonant voice that carries across the stadium.
Military Guard
background
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 20s with a clean-shaven face and closely cropped dark hair. His posture is ramrod straight, betraying years of military discipline. His sharp blue eyes remain fixed forward, reflecting his focus and dedication to duty.
