TNGF
SELECTED
Emperor Titus
primary
A robust man in his early forties with a strong, square jaw and short, curly brown hair. His face bears the marks of a seasoned military leader, with a few faint scars and a weathered complexion. His piercing dark eyes command attention, and his posture exudes authority.
Senator Lucius
secondary
A middle-aged Roman senator with a lean yet dignified build, his sharp features accentuated by a neatly trimmed beard. His piercing grey eyes survey the scene with calculated interest, and his olive skin bears the marks of years spent in both political chambers and military campaigns.
Gladiator Captain
secondary
A battle-hardened gladiator in his late 30s, with a muscular build and numerous scars crisscrossing his tanned skin. His dark hair is cropped short, and his face bears the weathered look of a man who has survived countless fights. His piercing brown eyes scan the arena with a mix of vigilance and resignation.
Arena Slave
background
A muscular man in his late 20s with sun-darkened skin and short-cropped black hair, bearing the scars of past punishments across his back. His hands are calloused from years of operating heavy mechanisms, and his posture is permanently hunched from labor.

Dialog
Emperor Titus
Behold, Lucius, the grandeur of Rome made manifest! The gods themselves must envy this spectacle we unveil today.
Senator Lucius
Indeed, Caesar. The amphitheatre stands as a testament to your divine favor. Though I wonder... will the mob remember who built it when the blood begins to flow?
Emperor Titus
Let them remember the bread as well as the circuses, my friend. A full belly makes for a contented heart.
Gladiator Captain
The murmillones are ready, Caesar. The beasts wait below. Give the word.
Emperor Titus
Then let Jupiter Optimus Maximus bear witness! Begin the games!
Senator Lucius
How... economical with words your gladiator is. One might mistake brevity for disrespect.
Gladiator Captain
Disrespect gets men killed, Senator. Efficiency keeps them alive.
