TES V: Skyrim Extended Cut
JD Byrne for Farengar
Farengar Secret-Fire is the court wizard of Whiterun and a friend of Jarl Balgruuf. His interest in dragon research leads him to recruit adventurers to assist him with his projects, such as the recovery of a long-lost dragonstone from Bleak Falls Barrow. His role and backstory have been somewhat expanded, and he has a number of new scenes (notably acting as a major supporting character during the Kynesgrove dragon encounter.) Farengar has a very dry sense of humor and only shows real excitement when presented with the chance to conduct new research.
A Scottish or Irish accent is ideal for this character, but not required. Tone should be even and intelligent. Speech is accented and slightly stilted.
(insightful) One sure mark of a fool is to dismiss anything that falls outside his experience as being impossible.
(excited) Not today, mate. We have a dragon to catch!
(irritated) I suggest you stop speaking to me before I fall asleep standing up.
