TNGF
SELECTED
Pope Gregory I
primary
An elderly man of frail build with sunken cheeks and a pale complexion, his once-robust frame weakened by illness. His deep-set eyes still hold intellectual sharpness beneath heavy brows, and his thin hands are clasped in prayer. A tonsure crowns his head with grayed hair.
Deacon Sabinus
primary
A middle-aged man of lean build, with a gaunt face marked by deep lines of both care and devotion. His dark brown eyes, often described as piercing yet compassionate, are framed by graying eyebrows. His short-cropped hair is thinning at the crown, showing signs of his ascetic lifestyle.
Monk Servant
secondary
A humble monk of average height with a slender build, his face marked by years of ascetic life. His hands are rough from manual labor, yet gentle in their movements. His dark, sunken eyes reflect a life of devotion and quiet service.
Roman Guard
background
A middle-aged man of sturdy build, with a weathered face that bears the marks of years of service. His short, dark hair is streaked with gray, and his deep-set eyes show a mix of duty and sorrow. His hands, rough from holding weapons, are clasped tightly in front of him.
