Katai Armand- Ultimate Botanist

[Armand is pronounced Ar-mahnd or Ar-mond]

The saying that every beautiful flower has its thorns is very much accurate in the case of Monsieur Armand. Hailing from the prefecture known as Périgueux, located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France, Katai has cultivated both a study and…somehow a cult following dedicated to his love of plants. Prickly, unapproachable, and downright pretentious, Katai has no intention of getting too close to anyone else. But, if you were to somehow cut down the vines protecting his (secretly) fragile heart, be careful not to scorch it. While it is incredibly ill-advised to even try and befriend someone as capricious as Katai, be sure to never, under any circumstance, assume that his specialty is solely limited to flowers…or else you may realize that the thorns on a rose are more than just for show.

For Katai, we are looking for someone who can perfectly capture the haughty, condescending, and flagrantly prickish tone that Katai carries in his words. We are looking for a medium masculine voice for this role.

A reference to how his voice would sound would be Hiroshi Kamiya’s Neuvilette from the mobile game Genshin Impact.

Do note that references are just that: references. Feel free to provide your own interpretation of the character, as we are looking for what will fit the character best, not who's the most accurate to the voice reference. 

Extra Note: I am open to hearing takes of his voice with both a light and not heavily exaggerated French accent, as well as an American English one.
