Description

Sanguine Rose begins with Roman and his fellow mercenaries trapped in the snowy village Whitewood with their recently abducted prisoner: High General Carmen Valentine. While Roman and his company deliberate on their next course of action, Carmen is planning to use every means at her disposal to escape.

Not only is Carmen a skilled soldier, but also a terrifyingly charismatic hedonist. Upon waking captured by your party she will immediately attempt to escape by playing head games with Roman and the other mercenaries. Roman, meanwhile, will respond almost entirely to player direction, with a wide array of choices available to make. Will you attempt to seduce Carmen, or will you succumb to her will? Can you keep her from escaping while she turns your team against you, or you against them?

Protagonist

Safe / Tame (14)

Roman
Measurements	Height: 183cm
Hair	Brown, Parted to Side, Spiky Bangs
Eyes	Brown
Role	Mercenary
Description A washed up but skilled mercenary. In the past he was a lowly foot soldier, but was singled out by the young daughter of a lord who favoured him. Seeing his superior natural skill they decided to let her keep him as her personal guard until she was in her late teens. She gave him the necklace he still wears to this day, a stone ring. Knights from this town were given a silver signet ring when knighted, a title that the lord never allowed Roman to have, so the lord’s daughter fashioned one herself. When the lord’s daughter is killed tragically in an attack, the lord blames Roman and casts him out of the city. With only his reputation as a skilled swordsman and no title he wandered for years, eventually finding his old friend Glasha again and gaining reputation as a mercenary. He is hired to capture General Carmen.

Main characters

Carmen Valentine
Measurements	Height: 170cm
Hair	Black
Body	Mole
Role	Commander, Prisoner
Description Carmen, from house Valentine, grew up and trained in Amarinth with Anastasia. Close childhood friends, Carmen was always protective of Anastasia. When Anastasia took the throne, she appointed Carmen as the head of her military.

Crow
Measurements	Height: 160cm
Hair	Black, Parted to Side, Undercut
Body	Freckles, Pointed Ears, Slim
Clothes	Choker
Role	Orc
Description An intelligent orcish translator and guide for travelling through Skagen. Crow is very meak, a common trait in 'half-blood' orcs. She's a lot more sociable than Glasha, and her linguistic talents raise a lot of questions. Where did she learn not one, but multiple languages? Crow could doubtlessly work for a legitimate institute or a noble house, but instead prefers to work with mercenaries. Her skills were vital in procuring the means to transport Carmen from Anghor Bay to Whitewood without raising suspicion.

Glasha
Aliases	Ash
Measurements	Height: 185cm
Hair	Parted to Side, White
Body	Fang, Pointed Ears
Clothes	Earrings, Pendant Necklace
Role	Mercenary, Orc
Description An orc, and a very old friend of Roman's. Glasha is about as 'full-blooded' as orcs come north side of the sea. Her social skills are lacking at the best of times, but there's few problems which she can't fight, drink, or fuck her way out of, preferably in that order. Glasha and Roman share a mutual respect: Roman respects that Glasha could probably beat a bear in a fair fight, and Glasha respects Roman when he says it's a bad idea.
