TNGF
SELECTED
Abbot
primary
An elderly man in his late sixties, with a frail but dignified build. His face is lined with deep wrinkles, framed by thinning white hair and a neatly trimmed beard. His piercing blue eyes show both wisdom and weariness, and his hands are slightly trembling from age and the current stress.
Viking Leader
primary
A towering Norse warrior in his late 30s, with a muscular build honed by years of raiding. His face is weathered by sea winds, framed by a thick blond beard braided with silver rings. A deep scar runs from his left temple to jawline, and his ice-blue eyes burn with predatory intensity. His arms bear intricate knotwork tattoos marking past victories.
Monk Scribe
secondary
A middle-aged man of slender build with a tonsured head and close-cropped brown hair, his hands stained with ink from years of manuscript work. His face shows early signs of aging with deep-set brown eyes that now dart anxiously.
Young Monk
secondary
A novice monk in his late teens, slender and pale from years spent indoors copying manuscripts. His fair hair is cropped short in the monastic tonsure, and his wide blue eyes reflect sheer terror. His hands tremble visibly, and his lips move in silent prayer.
Viking Warrior
background
A burly Norse raider in his late 20s, standing nearly six feet tall with broad shoulders and muscular arms honed from years of rowing and combat. His face is weathered from sea voyages, marked by a fresh scar across his left cheekbone. Straw-colored hair falls to his shoulders, partially braided with small bronze rings woven in. His beard is short and unkempt, stained with mead and sweat. Pale blue eyes burn with predatory focus beneath thick brows.
Dialog
Abbot
By the Holy Cross and the relics of Saint Brigid, I beg you—spare these men of God! Take what gold you will, but do not stain your soul with innocent blood.
Viking Leader
This sea-king cares not for your white Christ! The raven-starved will feast today—either open your treasure-house or watch your monks feed the corpse-frost!
Monk Scribe
Deus misereatur... Brother Dáire, take the Psalter of Kildare to the crypt—quickly, before they torch the scriptorium!
Viking Leader
Skjaldborg! Break that door! The Christ-men hide their silver behind carved wood!
Abbot
May God forgive you this sacrilege—these stones have stood in prayer since the days of Patrick himself!
Monk Scribe
The Annals... we cannot lose eight generations of—Domine, non sum dignus—the ink is still wet on the last folio!
Viking Leader
Hah! Your god does not answer today, old man. Only steel speaks here!
