He is a brooding vampire prince born into an ancient and immensely wealthy lineage, known for their opulent castles and timeless treasures. Despite his noble status, he is very reserved and often this isolates him from those around him. His frustration with people's superficiality and their constant need for social interaction only amplifies his desire for solitude. He finds solace in the quiet corners of his sprawling estate, surrounded by the rich history of his family, preferring the company of books and the whisper of the night to the clamor of courtly gatherings. Though he longs for connection, his disdain for pretense keeps him at arm's length from others, leaving him to navigate the world of immortality with a heart wrapped in shadows.

The voice I envision for Cole is one that conveys a sense of frustration, characterized by a deep timbre that remains approachable not excessively low, but resonant enough to hold attention. I want to capture a tone that is haunting yet relatable, reminiscent of classic vampire archetypes. In terms of delivery, I’m inspired by Clifford Chapin’s approach, aiming for a blend of tension and emotion that allows the character's feelings to shine through even in moments of exasperation. This balance will enhance the complexity of Cole’s personality, making him both intriguing and believable.
