Danganronpa: Eternal Endings
Montymike for Daníel Pálsson - Ultimate Miniature Modeler
PERSONALITY
Daníel is a quiet, depressive guy. Due to being the oldest of the cast, he tends to feel responsible for things whether he actually is or not, and can really beat himself up over the smallest of failings. Daníel is really passionate about his hobbies and loves to see others interested in them, though he rarely lets himself get outwardly happy.
VOICE
Daníel's voice is deep, but soft and calming. He never lets his tone rise and speaks slowly, unconfident in his words every time he speaks. Daníel has a whole word stutter where, after a small pause, he start over from whatever point he thinks he should, usually 1 or 2 words. He also adds a lot of "uhh"s and "uhmm"s to his sentences, which would have a little bit of a pause as he fills in for the words that are blocked.
A voice reference would be Bob Ross, who's soft tone matches what I imagine for Daníel perfectly, though I do think Daníel would sound a bit more unconfident.
Daníel is from Iceland, so an Icelandic accent would be nice but is absolutely not required.

(Trying to sound stern and confident, going in for a handshake) I’m Dániel Pálsson. Back on earth I was, uh, the Ultimate Miniature Modeler.
(Happy, curious) It is extremely relaxing. That’s why I like doing it. Are you interested in trying- In trying miniature modeling?
(Stern, giving a talking to) Son, you gotta think before doing things like that. You'll get us killed.
Thank you for auditioning! You got his voice well, my only suggestions would be towards the delivery (Which could be solved with me giving more direction in actual lines, so this isn't too concerning, just want to put it here for future reference and for anyone else who'd possibly want to audition), primarily with his stutter. His stutter in the second line is more quick since he doesn't really pause with tripping over his words, and I think he'd show just a slight bit less emotion, particularly on the second line since he's a pretty stoic guy. Great job overall though, I appreciate it!
Thanks for the comment, and the advice! Do you think I should send a second audition with the fixes, or would you prefer that I don't send two auditions for the same character? I'm still pretty new to this!
I wouldn't mind you sending 2 auditions for the same character since hearing the changes would be helpful for the final decision, but whether you do or not is entirely up to you, the changes are pretty small so I'd get it aha
