Candied Carols [Romance Visual Novel/Otome]
crimsoncharlie for Dietrich [The Rat King]
This is a romance-able character and has his own route.
Dietrich is the king of the Rat Kingdom and is not a very [immediately] likeable man. He is brash, sharp-tongued, and hasty in all decisions. Once he settles and gets to know the MC, however, he softens (although still maintains some degree of an... attitude). The Rat Kingdom is an uncomfortable, barren land. There is very little food and the lands are not suitable for farming. Castle Cragg juts out of the mountain and towers over the dilapidated village, but no one lives inside besides Dietrich. To add to this isolation, the Rat Kingdom is separated from the Sugar Plum Fields by a great mountain range that only experienced climbers can navigate, making their situation yet more dire.
Dietrich is a human, just like Jack and "Clara," the MC. There are no members in his court - he lives alone.
His voice should be rough and informal with a medium-medium low range.
This is where you're gonna stay. Don't think about misbehaving. Just stay here.
[Why?]
Because that's what I told you.
[But...]
Shaddap! I'm sick of your yapping.
[Clara mentions that Jack and Fae could help with the food shortage.]
[Dietrich, bitterly]: Oh, I know! You just want to run away, back to that stupid man! It's so great over there, isn't it? So sparkly and vibrant. They've got everything they could ever want!
[Considerably softer]: Sit there and warm up. You're cold. Don't need you to get sick. That'd really be...
