TNGF
SELECTED
Claudius
primary
A middle-aged man with a slightly hunched posture, thinning gray hair, and a prominent limp. His face bears the marks of age and illness, with deep-set eyes and a furrowed brow, yet his gaze is sharp and intelligent. His hands tremble slightly, a condition he tries to conceal.
Praetorian Guard
secondary
A tall, muscular man in his early 30s with a stern, clean-shaven face, short-cropped dark hair, and piercing brown eyes. His skin is tanned from years of military campaigns, and his posture exudes disciplined strength. A faint scar runs along his left cheekbone, a testament to his battlefield experience.
Senator
secondary
A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean, aristocratic build. His sharp features are accentuated by a neatly trimmed beard and piercing dark eyes. His posture is upright, reflecting his patrician status, though there's a subtle tension in his shoulders.
Street Vendor
background
A middle-aged Roman man with a wiry build, sun-weathered skin, and calloused hands from years of labor. His dark hair is streaked with gray and tied back with a simple leather strap. His sharp eyes constantly scan the crowd for potential customers.
Slave Boy
background
A young boy, perhaps 10-12 years old, with a slight build and tanned skin from outdoor labor. His dark hair is cropped short in the typical slave style, and his thin frame suggests he has endured hardship. His hands show calluses from carrying heavy loads.

Dialog

Claudius By the grace of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, this triumph is a testament to Rome's eternal glory—though some may whisper otherwise.
Praetorian Guard The mob is jubilant, Imperator. The formation holds.
Senator Indeed, a most... auspicious day. One might wonder, though, how Britannia's wealth will grace our coffers.
Claudius The Senate, in its wisdom, will see the fruits of our victory—as they saw the wisdom of our campaign.
Praetorian Guard Eyes on the left flank—agitators near the Temple of Venus.
Senator Perhaps it is merely the people's... enthusiasm. Or perhaps Pluto's shadows linger where they should not.
Claudius Let Dis Pater judge the shadows. Today, Rome stands in the light.
