TNGF
SELECTED
Emperor Claudius
primary
A frail, elderly man in his early 60s with thinning gray hair and a pale, sickly complexion. His face bears deep lines of age and illness, with a slight droop on one side from his lifelong infirmity. His hands tremble slightly, and his breathing is labored.
Agrippina the Younger
primary
A striking woman in her early 40s with sharp, patrician features, high cheekbones, and piercing dark eyes. Her posture is regal, betraying her imperial lineage. She carries herself with calculated grace, her movements deliberate and controlled.
Physician
secondary
A middle-aged Greek man with a lean, wiry build, his olive skin marked by deep lines of stress around his eyes and mouth. His dark hair is streaked with grey and pulled back in a simple knot. His hands are clean but show signs of frequent washing, with short, practical nails.
Guard Captain
secondary
A hardened Praetorian officer in his late 30s with a muscular build and sun-weathered skin. His face bears the scar of a long-healed blade wound across his left cheekbone. Short-cropped black hair and a neatly trimmed beard frame his sharp, assessing eyes.
Slave Attendant
background
A young man in his early twenties, slight of build with sun-darkened skin and close-cropped dark hair. His hands show the calluses of labor, and his posture carries the habitual stoop of servitude. His sharp, observant eyes dart between tasks and the unfolding drama.
