Race is ambiguous, so actors of color are encouraged!
Sym is an alien that takes a keen interest in humans, especially Dys and Sol. He finds them "adorable". Even if the rest of his kind hates humanity. Sym is very playful, almost childlike, and loves to tease Dys and Sol, both jokingly and romantically. He appears just in time to save Sol multiple times during their life, and is the bridge between the Gardeners and the humans, helping Sol find peace. He's earnest, honest, and gentle. A lot of his lines are almost seductive in nature, but he can also be very gentle. He does express romantic feelings toward Sol, so please be prepared to discuss romantic and intimate topics.
Note: I am not looking for a specific accent. The line above is a description directly from the game, so you can give it a shot if you like, but it's not necessary.

(introspective, awe) That tree was a small creature for part of its lifecycle. You call it the Vriki. Once it plants its roots, that’s where it stays for the rest of its life. The Gardeners spend time as trees too, sometimes hundreds of years. If you do that enough, you start to think like a tree. Set in your ways. When I watch you… when I talk to you and learn about your species… I feel inspired. I feel young again.
(soft, gentle, seductive, shy) But there are no words for the feeling I have, here, when I see you. Like an ache that pulls me to you. I envision things with you that… that are impossible to explain. Forgive my crudeness, but I… I know of the… the biological imperative of all life. Gardeners do not share this imperative, and do not feel driven to, ah… physicality… but… w-with you, I… Perhaps it is this body. Perhaps it is… you. All I know is that I would very much like to kiss you again, and I would not like to stop.
(serious) Sol. Forgive my directness, but you must come with me now. Please trust me when I say I have done my best to argue on behalf of your kind. I hope only for the continued survival of humanity.
I like the idea of the syntax, especially since the words describe his accent as "musical" or just off, but unfortunately it comes off as kind of robotic. Forgive me for asking, but would you be able to do another take? Sym is an organic being and tries his best to be human for the sake of Sol and Dys, it's more that he just puts the stress on the wrong syllables sometimes.
Sure will! Thanks for the feedback!
