Through the Eyes of Trothar
ReignReevesPearson for Oleander
While Veil is a high, strong, absolutely bouncing off the walls tomboy, Oleander is a guy who just likes to read his books, play with blocks, and do everything else he can to just have fun. He generally is quiet and is the person who can calm down veil whenever she's being to nosy, but he's also at the same time the person who generally listens the most. Very akin to Wave in Yarrow's group, Oleander is wise and understands people, but unlike Wave, who's too scared to do many things, Oleander does actually like to help people out and is generally quite caring. Considering he is one of the older kids he will have a lot more lines like veil will and generally somebody will ask a bunch of questions. People auditioning for Oleander need to recognize that not that he will talk slowly but that he will talk in a very calm manner, not monotone but definitely not as exaggerative or expressive as other characters. He is a bit of a teacher's pet so he will be interacting with Coalduster quite a bit.

Good Morning Ms. Coalduster! Can I go read for a bit?
Ms. Coalduster, I can't really do my homework. (Allow for pause) I don't know who my mama was and I don't know who my papa was.
it's not fair! Veil is really nice, and I know she can be really mean and I know she can be snappy but… But why does she have to get collared and I don't!
