The Shade of Attlemoore
Richard Gibson for The Vagrant
Untrustworthy, any gender. Low class, an all-knowing schemer with an eternally parched throat.
The Vagrant is an undead wandering the ruins of Attlemoore. Don't be fooled though - he was also a wandering vagrant during the empire's golden age as well. He's a sinister seeming trickster character who shows up every now and then and clearly knows more about the supernatural goings on in the world than anyone else.

(untrustworthy, slightly taunting) Oh, you pull away. But what harm could I do her? She's already at death's door. You wonder at who I am? If you can trust me? Heh. Heh. Heh. Just a vagrant. Maybe the last one in Attlemoore. Now, show me your little broken bird.
(sinister, but speaking as though he's letting the listener in on a secret) Only thing is, Shade, a vagrant doesn't sleep 'neath a roof. I see the stars each night. All of 'em Tyrants of their own, the astronomers said, back when the living still bustled in this kingdom. Each and every night a Vagrant, yours truly, watched those stars afore he sleeps. And they go out, Shroudie. Aint that interesting?
(Mysterious and ominous) Just how it is - can't change it! Not unless… well, Lord Shroudie, not unless you could eat the moon. Heh heh heh.
Hello! I've attached this as a link to a gdrive since it seems like the role was set as actor, not voice actor, so I'm unable to upload an audition file the normal way. If you have any difficulties listening to the audition, let me know! Thanks, Richard
