The Crying Child Series
AnterosVA for Timothy Wright ( Masky )
Character: Timothy Wright (Masky)
Voice Type: Male, mid–low range (young adult)
Accent: Neutral (General American preferred)
Personality:Masky is intelligent, analytical, and highly controlled. He operates with a constant sense of pressure, often acting as the one keeping everything from falling apart. He has little patience for incompetence and tends to come off as blunt or irritated—but rarely loses control completely.
He isn’t outwardly emotional or dramatic. Instead, his tension shows through subtle frustration, sharp wording, and a tired, overworked tone.
Performance Direction:
- Natural, grounded delivery (avoid exaggerated or “edgy” acting)
- Calm and controlled tone, even when irritated
- Authority comes from composure, not volume
- Slight underlying fatigue or stress is encouraged
- Occasional sharpness when pushed, but don’t overdo anger
Important:Masky should feel like a real person under pressure—not a stereotypical “creepy” character. Keep the performance restrained and believable.
“Please prioritize natural delivery over dramatic performance.”

(controlled irritation, authority) “You’ve already wasted too much of my time. Just tell me what the matter is. Now.”
(calm, analytical) “No body parts were missing… which rules out most of the obvious explanations.”
(frustration slipping through briefly) “Give me a break—for once I don’t need more problems on my desk.”
Hey, I like the direction you went with Masky—the tone fits the character well.
If I had one note, I think you could add a bit more variation in delivery. Right now it stays in a similar tone throughout, so pushing some contrast (like calmer moments vs sharper ones) could really make it stand out more.
But yeah solid base to build from 👍
Thank you for the feedback and for taking the time to listen! I am really glad the base tone hit the mark for you. I completely agree about pushing the contrast with the delivery, and I will absolutely apply that going forward. I appreciate the direction!
