Tales Beyond the Veil: Shadows Dance - A D&D Story
CookieVA for Mistus
Main Character - Presenting Age: Mid-30s
Mistus is a dhampir (half-vampire) informant for an information-broker known as The Veiled League. Upon returning from an assignment he is quickly sent off on another that takes him back through his past trauma.
He puts on a very fancy and unbothered persona around others, at times a little camp, as a way of masking his true thoughts and feelings, and as a way of focusing his own attention away from the shadows of his past, however unsuccessfully the latter may be.
The voice for this character needs to ooze charisma at every opportunity, but also have that edge to it of thinly veiled trauma that peaks out every so often in the story - this is a broken man pretending to be fine.
IMPORTANT : Mistus will be a recurring character in future stories so whoever gets cast for this roll will need to be able to commit to future projects (which will ofc be paid per project) .

You spoil me, my dear Raven. (turning to leave) Ta ta!
(to himself) We’re not stopping. We’re not stopping. I am working. We’re not stopping. We’re not. (under breath) Ah fuck.. (calling out) Stop the carriage!
(pretending to know someone) Wonderful! Wonderful. Come along then, and do remind me of your name dear, it’s been an awfully long time.
