Library of Ruina: The Fandub (Round 3 - The Reverb Ensemble + Lob Corp)
Almanac for Oswald
Oswald, the 8 o'Clock Ringmaster, is an eccentric clown with a fun-loving personality. He is responsible for breaking Phillip to join the Reverberation Ensemble. A lot of what he says is seemingly nonsensical metaphors, but he has a seemingly polite personality and is open to banter... but don't let that fool you, as he's quite a capable fighter and his odd morality means people tend to underestimate just how vicious he can be.
For this role, I'm looking for a medium-high voice that can sound exactly like a charismatic ringmaster or silly clown... while also having the composure to not crack while saying any of the stupid things Oswald says on a regular basis. He's not really a monster clown or anything, so you don't need to try to do a "scary" voice - just sound fun and lighthearted.

[Introducing himself to circus guests.] "My earnest efforts to bring merry smiles to people were adored by Ms. Sun, who then whispered to me that she will make my wish come true. It was the outrageous, head-blowing wish to frolic with my secret pals!"
[Arriving at the Library.] "This place has an unfamiliar scent in the air, hmm? Ah! Down there is… a river that looks like a very large stream containing blueberries and juiced mountain snake berries… An olfactory mixture of mint and clove… would make a stingy scent like this!"
[Arguing with Tiphereth over if one should hold expectations.] "Did a blade of grass ask for you to have them? Did the gentle sun allow you to have them? Who in the world told you it’s right to hold expectations? Hahaha! That tingles my mouth almost as much as a celery leaf does! Oh how hilarious!!!"
