Role assigned to: allenandrews

Vorian, author of De Rerum Dirennis and the oldest living member of the Direnni clan is a highly accomplished historian, alchemist, and enchanter; he is around 800 years old. He is in charge of overseeing all affairs of the island complex's domestic concerns while Medora handles international concerns and internal clan affairs. Vorian has seen a lot of and been through harrowing world events which have tempered his personality and perspective. He is sharp-minded and serious which creates a contrast to Auryen's more curious and energetic tone and outlook. Vorian is not grim per se but he knows that there is always another layer to consider and hence is well guarded against rash choices. This does not however mean that he doesn't have a good sense of humor beneath it all, he just doesn't tend to show it beyond an amused smirk or chuckle. Even in anger, Vorian tends to be endlessly diplomatic. A Queen's English Accent would do.

Record all audition lines while referring to the notes below for each line and do one take of each line. 

For the first audition line, the Dragonborn is inquiring about Medora, the leader of the Direnni Clan, and her relation to King Lysandus, Queen Mynisera, and Nulfagga, Lysandus' mother. It is quite an interesting piece of court drama that you could get into explaining. Medora doesn't find it herself considering it's been so long and the rumors have already long been spread into the public.

For the second audition line, Governor Juliar, who does the day-to-day managing of all of Balfiera, has come to Vorian seeking wisdom on how to deal with several crises afflicting the island. Considering the postition Juliar signed up for, he should be much more independent but your diplomatic nature smooths over your impatience.

  • It was rumored that their relationship ran much deeper than a garden variety noble affair, however, and it greatly angered his wife Mynisera. The prevailing theory is that after Lysandus’ death, Mynisera approached Nulfaga about getting revenge on Medora for the affair, somehow twisting in Nulfaga’s mind that Medora had something to do with the death of Lysandus, which couldn’t have been further from the truth. Nonetheless, Nulfaga executed a curse that turned Direnni tower into a prison. Medora was cast out of the Daggerfall court and returned here to Balfiera where she became trapped.

  • I'm afraid I haven't the time to go into things in more depth, given the plight of our situation. Take it upon yourself Juliar to take charge of the matter yourself by whatever means you see fit. I have full confidence in your abilities.

Character could sound a bit more energetic. Pacing could also be a bit faster, especially in Line 1.
