Jeremiah Cole for Earl Dandelion Souldon / The Advisor
Base Description of Earl’s Character
Earl is the right hand man to a 12 year old king but subsequently his mortal enemy; Formerly The King's best friend. It is less of a man and more of a creature molded after the King’s pure spite and fear, It despises The King but was created by him to serve and eternally owe loyalty. It is rather emotionless and immune to the chaotic world it hopes to destroy; taking on the representation of an isolating and closed-off coping mechanism toward grief.

VOICING EARL
Playing Earl is , in a way , like taking on two different roles. Earl's character is characterized by its ability to seamlessly transition between contrasting moods and tones, often in an unbalanced or chaotic manner. One moment, it may exude charm and wit, while in the next, he could display flashes of rage or a stoic nature
By embracing the dichotomy within Earl's persona, you can fully explore the shades of his character, focusing just enough on the inner turmoil and conflict that drives his actions while keeping a silly/goofy front. Earl most often grapples with its ability to navigate the confusing nature of his own psyche, embodying the essence of a character teetering on the edge of sanity.

((PLEASE ONLY BEGIN LINES ONCE YOUVE READ EARL’S ENTIRE DESCRIPTION)) “ My my! Ain’t you an interestin’ fellow? Don’t think I’ve ever seen someone so grumpy. Is your face always so glum? Cause it gets a bit repetitive. “
“ Well, what a pretty thing you are! Look at this hemmed up coat and that scruffy stuff all over your face .. what are you like a .. a mammal of some kind? “
“ Reality is a sad concept that my being is not a part of, and Either way I don’t see how you could see me as something real. Real things are good things. But it is rather nice of you to think that way. “ ( slightly more stoic / serious line? Can be matter of fact or can be played up as Earl can be sorta dramatic )
