Stephen F. for Dalton Othellen
Dalton has black hair and blue eyes. Despite being an important character, he's probably the one that keeps changing the most so I haven't actually settled that much on an accent for him yet. I just wanted to get this out of the way because I'm not asking for anyone to do all of these, this is just the range of accents he's for some reason gone through in my mind. He's been Posh British, Californian (but not "Valley Girl"), New Yorker, and even general Northeastern American for a time. Again, I'm not asking for all of these, it's better to finally settle on one.
Dalton's the father of two boys; a fourteen year old and an eight year old. Dalton himself is in his late thirties.

- american (new york)
- posh american
- british (posh)

“He’s a child, and he’s been through a lot. A couple more days isn’t going to hurt anything."”
“If you were a pawn, you would be one amazingly strategic chess piece. You’ve got the brains and the power… and you’ve got the heart to match them.”
