If you auditioned for this role on another casting call of mine, please DO NOT resubmit your audition! ALL auditions on previous casting calls will still be considered. I am just opening this role once more to gain more auditions, and once it officially closes, ALL auditions will be looked at and considered. HOWEVER, if you wish to change something about your audition, such as the pitch or different vocal direction, then that is fine. Just please do not submit the exact same audition and the exact same takes. Otherwise, it will cause confusion.

**If you already submitted an audition for this character in the "understudies" role in another casting call, please DO NOT resubmit it here! Your audition will still be considered--this role has just recently be added in order to rack up more auditions for Klaus' understudy. 

I would like the current VA for Klaus to focus on Klaus' main story stuff, as Klaus has a route in the earlier seasons, a sequel to that route, and then a route in the later seasons. He also has heavy dialogue in other routes (he probably is the most dialogue heavy character being the most popular LI), so I may possibly cast 2 VAs as his understudy.

Likes: Sugary tea, sweets in general

Dislikes: Bitter things, the smell of coffee

Hobby: Studying magic-related subjects

Skills: Extremely strict teaching methods

Klaus is the second son of Walter Goldstein, a famous wizard known for his magical tools. Klaus serves as the Prefect of the student body, a position given only to the top two students at the school. However, because Klaus does not recognize any other student as being worthy of the position, he is the only Prefect at the time his route begins.

As Prefect, Klaus acts as the student representative to the faculty, and also shoulders various administrative and teaching responsibilities. In return he also holds a number of privileges, is exempt from curfews, and wears a special uniform. In addition to being a Prefect, Klaus is also a certified Elite Magic Knight, exhibiting significantly developed combat magic skills. He has also researched dark magic in the past, in order to assist with its eradication. He is also responsible for being the first to teach Elias magic.

Due to his harsh personality, his status, and his family, the other students refer to Klaus as "the Emperor". Klaus is characterized by single minded intensity, as well as a harsh, unforgiving, and frequently caustic demeanor. Beneath his exterior harshness, however, he is well-meaning and kindhearted. While he is a member of the Goldstein family, and very much both a magical and intellectual prodigy, Klaus is also extremely hardworking and very focused.

While Klaus has a position at the Ministry of Magic secured after graduation, his passion lies in teaching. His inspiration to become a professor at the academy was caused by Elias making a comment about how he was a good teacher, a fact Elias doesn't know. He also enjoys tea greatly (to the point where he doesn't trust others to make it for him), and is shown later to have a rather extreme sweet tooth, putting seven spoonfuls of sugar in his tea.

Voice: Mid-deep to deep range, maybe a bit cold or strict sounding. Other interpretations are welcomed, as long as they remain within the desired pitch range. Example #1
