Accent:

Gnei has a north west german accent. He has harsh tones with a gruff voice similar to the song "Pures Gift für mich" by BRDIGUNG as a reference.

Voice Description:

Gnei has a rough yet higher pitch voice with a smug attitude and can get very emotional when it comes to Olivia. His voice sounds condescending at times and childish. He rolls his "Rs" and adds german words in when he can. (Bonus for your audition if you add some German phrases or words)

Speech Pattern:

Gnei can stumble on English words often and he tends to pause and think of English words. If he can't think of the word in English then he'll say it in German. He has an eccentric personality so his vocal range is up and down.
