TNGF
SELECTED
Niall Glúndub
primary
A powerfully built man in his early forties, with a thick mane of auburn hair streaked with grey and a full beard. His face is weathered from years of battle and leadership, with piercing green eyes that command attention. A long scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past conflicts. His hands are calloused from wielding weapons, and his stance exudes authority.
Irish Warrior
secondary
A rugged, battle-hardened warrior in his early 30s, with a muscular build and weathered skin from years of outdoor combat. His dark brown hair is tied back in a simple warrior's knot, and his face bears several old scars, including a prominent one across his left cheek. His piercing blue eyes are alert and focused, scanning the battlefield for threats.
Viking Chieftain
secondary
A towering figure in his late 30s, with a muscular build honed by years of raiding. His blonde hair is tied back in a thick braid, streaked with dirt and sweat. A long, jagged scar runs from his left temple to his jawline, a testament to past battles. His piercing blue eyes are framed by bushy blonde eyebrows, and his beard is plaited with small iron rings.
Viking Warrior
background
A burly Viking warrior in his late 20s, with a muscular build and a thick, reddish-blonde beard. His face is marked with battle scars, and his piercing blue eyes are filled with battle fury. His hair is tied back in a tight braid, and his arms are covered in faded tattoos of Norse symbols.

Dialog

Niall Glúndub By the Dagda's will! Hold the line, sons of Éire — let not these sea-wolves taste our soil!

Irish Warrior My lord — shield-wall crumbles on the left! Óisin's band is cut down!

Irish Warrior Go mbeannaí Dia duit, you filth! *grunts*
