TNGF
SELECTED
Sitric Cáech
primary
A formidable Viking leader in his late 30s, with a muscular build and a weathered face marked by years of battle. His most striking feature is his piercing blue eyes, which gleam with a mix of cunning and ruthlessness. His long, unkempt blond hair is tied back with a leather thong, and a thick beard frames his jaw. A deep scar runs from his left temple to his cheekbone, a testament to past conflicts.
Niall Glúndub
primary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 40s with a weathered face marked by years of battle and leadership. His dark brown hair is streaked with grey, tied back in a warrior's knot, and his piercing blue eyes scan the battlefield with a mix of determination and sorrow. A prominent scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past conflicts.
Viking Champion
secondary
A burly Norse warrior in his late 30s, standing tall with a muscular build honed by years of battle. His face is weathered, with a prominent scar running from his left eyebrow to his cheekbone. His beard is thick and braided, adorned with small metal rings. His piercing blue eyes are filled with the fire of battle.
Irish Chieftain
secondary
A rugged man in his late 30s, with a muscular build from years of warfare and hunting. His face is weathered, with a prominent scar running from his left eyebrow to his cheekbone. His dark brown hair is tied back in a loose braid, and his beard is thick and unkempt. His piercing green eyes reflect both determination and exhaustion.
Wounded Irish Warrior
background
A young to middle-aged Irish fighter, lean and wiry from years of combat and hard living. His face is streaked with mud and blood, his dark hair matted with sweat and grime. A deep wound in his side leaves a trail of blood as he moves, his breathing labored and uneven. His hands are calloused and scarred from wielding weapons, and his arms bear the marks of previous battles.
Viking Skald
background
A middle-aged Norse poet-warrior with a muscular build, long braided blonde hair, and a thick beard streaked with grey. His face bears the scars of past battles, and his piercing blue eyes gleam with fervor as he chants.
