Olympian

Olympian is the owner and mayor of Blossomshire, and one of the more established figures in Fade’s life. He’s confident, friendly, and generally easygoing, with the kind of personality that makes him seem like he always knows what he’s doing, even when he absolutely doesn’t. He’s perfectly happy hanging around Fade and the others, and initially gets along well with them despite being a little more grounded.

Olympian is autistic, but this is simply one part of who he is. He can be blunt, particular, or approach situations differently from the people around him, but he’s still a funny, personable, and capable guy. He should feel like a genuine person first, rather than an exaggerated portrayal of an autistic character.

As the series progresses, Olympian becomes increasingly important to the story, particularly as his relationship with Fade and the others begins to change. For the pilot, however, he should primarily come across as a friendly town owner who genuinely seems to have Blossomshire under control.

Voice Direction: Looking for a youthful masculine voice with a natural, confident personality. The ideal voice should sound around 17-20, with a medium to medium-low pitch and a clear, conversational delivery. Olympian should sound relaxed and self-assured without becoming overly charismatic or “leader-like.” The actor should be comfortable with dry humour, casual dialogue, blunt observations, and moments of genuine seriousness. Avoid an exaggerated “nerd” voice or making the autism overly obvious through the performance. He should sound like a normal guy who just happens to be running a Minecraft town.
