skurleton for Teylid
Age: somewhere in his late 20s, early 30s
Vocal range: any
Accent: North American or posh
Teylid is a calm, coordial man, never one to raise his voice. He has no need to— after all, everyone is acutely aware of what this famed moneylender is capable of.
As polite as he is detached, Teylid is more a force of nature than a villain. Harmless, as long as you don't cross his path.
A brief talk with him will show you that he's not as emotionless as he looks, however... he simply chooses to be cold as a glacier.
(This character will only feature in chapter 1 for now. May or may not return later on)
(Slightly troubled yet mostly casual at first, moving on to threatening)
"I'm afraid these are the only escorts I can ever trust with my back anymore. It's a dangerous world out there for people like me... Speaking of which: where's your father? Has he considered my latest proposal? Or will I have to send any more of *my people* his way?"
(Clinical, intentionally cutting deep)
"Forgive my curiosity, I just can't help but wonder: how can a country boy with ambitions as great as yours go on living, day after day, knowing he can't aspire to more than his deplorable life? It must be exhausting, staying alive."
