Thaléa — Female, mid-twenties
Role: Featured — Book 1 only
Thaléa is the head usher at Groggman's Theatre — warm, confident, and entirely unambiguous about her admiration for Norbert, who responds to her attention with the careful obliviousness of a man who isn't quite sure whether what he thinks is happening is actually happening. She appears only twice, but her presence carries emotional weight that outlasts her page time considerably.
She is bright, charming, and completely at ease with herself — a pleasing contrast to Norbert's careful caution. There is nothing complicated about Thaléa. She simply likes him, and she's not particularly shy about it.
Voice: Warm, bright, naturally charming. Easy confidence without pushiness. The kind of voice that makes someone feel genuinely seen.
Note to performers: This role is suitable for doubling with another character in the production.

(Flirtatious) "Oh, the Sleeping Cat! I absolutely love their pastries. I was just thinking about stopping there myself, actually. What a coincidence."
"Just a small piece. It's quite pretty actually, with these unusual purple-green...wait...it's never been this warm before."
(disappointed, but resolved to action) "Yes, of course, you're right. But please, when this is sorted—come back for a performance. Orcish drama is quite intense, but surprisingly… passionate."
