Smelly for Harol Mildred
Base Description of Harol’s Character
Harol is a kind, sweet soul. His personality teeters on toxic positivity, ready to accept something even if it means confronting a gruesome reality. You could tell him the worst of news and he will find something great to say about it.
He represents a strong feeling of precontemplation and denial, embodying an almost naive optimism in the face of troubles. Secretly he struggles to keep a composed demeanor. He’d rather face the truth head on and find a way to skirt reality silently and underscores his attempts to maintain positivity as a coping mechanism.
He may or may not harbor feelings for his contrasting half, Douglas.
VOICING HAROL
Harol is bright and enthusiastic! He may have higher-than-typical adult male voice that hints at his FTM mid-transition stage. Slightly airy, warm, but strained when he’s trying too hard to sound upbeat.
That specific tension shows most when he’s nervous or covering up his true feelings.
Option to have his voice “crack” sometimes as well.
Attributes;
• Hyperactive
• a bit Higher pitched
