Pixel for Dahlia Fadel
Main character/Female/ Arab who grew up in America her whole life/ 25 y/o
Types of Speaking
Normal: Deep, modulated, and sounds sophisticated. She comes off as judgmental and skeptical of everything, despite not always meaning it. She is most emotional like this and is almost pathetic when afraid. She swears sparingly because she believes there’s more effective language to be used.
Narrator:
Her voice is almost airy and dream-like. It is devoid of all emotion when reading, regardless of what it is. There should be a noticeable difference from her normal voice.
Generalize:
Dahlia is a very educated woman who grew up faster than any of her peers due to her success and hard work. She comes from an immigrant household, which, due to conflicts, eventually led to her being estranged from them. She struggles to have healthy relationships(romantic or platonic) and often prefers to be alone and holds herself to a higher standard than most, which further complicates her life. Her morals are very skewed, but she often believes what she is doing is always the right answer. She can be very hypocritical at times and is somewhat of an unreliable narrator.
Notes:
Long talking periods- Dahlia talks for a very long time and tends to ramble. Since she is the main character, be prepared to talk plenty.
Unorthodox language- Dahlia is in the medical field, so she will use medical terms often, which means complex pronunciations and more methodical speaking. Not to mention, when she reads from her book, there will be lots of old language being used.
Fighting- she does get into a lot of physical altercations with other characters, so be prepared to yell and sound like you’re in pain.

[little weary]The glass vase on the table had just flung itself into the wall…For my sanity, I will ignore that.
[sounds annoyed but still perfessional] Without further ado, I will introduce myself. I am Doctor Dahlia Fadel, I am 25 years old and currently in my last year of residency until I’ve completed my schooling for my position as a general surgeon. I completed my primary schooling at the age of 12. Then, I was my class’s salutatorian from the University of Virginia.
[a sense of eeriness in a narrator-like voice]They hid his body in a crate so no one would suspect anything of them. They delivered the inebriated man to his address. The fool believed that they had good intentions for him. They dug for his keys and unlocked the door.
