EmpoleonNerd for Sir Coyle (Main Role)
MAIN ROLE
Coyle is a close friend and fellow knight to Link. He has known Link since he was young, and even knew and served alongside Link's father before he retired. He's the epitome of a knight of the rules, scolding link for mingling with the princess, yet clearly has a soft spot for Link. his voice is a little rough, and he is a bit of an older man, but *seems* noble. It is revealed later in the story that Coyle is a double agent, a Yiga Assassin undercover in order to help other Yiga into the castle.
Expected Line Count: 95 Lines
Rough voice of a guard. Proper, but is one of the more grounded soldiers, not the fancy ones. Not pompous very gives off an air that he cares about the rules.
Audition Line Context: These tell the context for each given line below.
- Line 1: *This is for context. Find the actual line below.*
(Coyle catches Link mingling with the princess, throwing jokes around and having casual fun, not something a knight should ever do. He scolds Link for this.) - Line 2: *This is for context. Find the actual line below.*
(Link has been talking nonstop about the life he used to live with Zelda once upon a time, and Coyle has been forced to listen to it all day.) - Line 3: *This is for context. Find the actual line below.*
(Coyle is training Zelda and is being surprisingly aggressive with her. He’s actually hitting her with his wooden sword, and his words, while spoken in a soldier's tone, are harsh and cruel. It’s “unusual” for Coyle to be this way.)

Line 1: (Rough, but sounds caring. Scolding. Aggressive. Surprised and disappointed having found Link mingling with the princess.) "What was that? I told you to be careful. Are you such a childish boy that you couldn’t keep yourself calm in her presence? You’re a Knight of Hyrule, for the Goddess’ sake! You’d think you could control yourself to do a job you were assigned. You’re not a teenager! By your age, you’d think you’d at least have developed half a brain!"
Line 2: (Joking, slightly humorous, but is clearly very tired of hearing Link rant to him about things.) "He’s been talking about your past lives all damn morning. You two had six children: four boys and two girls. He can’t remember their names. Would you like to know anything else, because believe me, I can go on. He talked that much. "
Line 3: (Stoic. Calm, but training Zelda aggressively, in a cruel manner. His words are cold, yet it's off putting how calmly he can say them. He is still keeping up the “soldier” act, and can be heard in his voice, but its going away.) "Are you angry, Princess? Are you angry that you’re a failure? Are you angry at your father? Is it because he’s disappointed in you? Proud of Link, who is succeeding where you fail? Is it because you know that your father used you? Used Link? That you’re nothing but pawns to him? Use that anger, Princess.The Yiga will not treat you softly. Use your anger. Your disgust. Channel your fear and your hate. You haven’t the years of training we have, but you have the heart of a warrior. So use it."
I love the anger you gave Coyle, he's so angry, which fits! This is a great audition, I love the energy you put into the audition here. Great work, Emp!
Thank you!
