***URGENT***

**Slight Texan OR Idahoan accent MANDATORY**
Medium-low to low voices preferred. Looking for a grungy, sort of country singer-esque voice. Gritty, kind of aged. Assertive, yet timid at times. Emotionally expressive.

The main French-American detective himself. Elliot is typically aloof and somewhat grouchy. He tends to distance himself from others. Most of his actions are determined by the player, but particularly out-of-character choices often lead him to state to another character or think to himself how worried he is for his own sanity. Either way, he feels like he's slipping a little, and is afraid of losing his mind. He's a touch paranoid, and has a rather crippling fear of the dark, as he's convinced that there's always something malicious watching him from the shadows (and, needless to say, he's not wrong . . .).

Due to a troubled childhood of abuse and neglect, he almost seems to lack sympathy, and could at times come across as a psychopath. But, deep down, he's a cheery little dork who just wants to be happy (not that this comes across very often). Despite how distanced he seems, when he does make friends, he's loyal to them and would do anything to keep them safe (unless instructed not to be by the player). Yet, though he loves his wife dearly, one of his secret vices is the need to feel wanted . . . even if he must get that feeling from questionable sources.

Depending on the player's choices, Elliot may become a variety of things, such as a normal man, a man utterly possessed by paranoia, or an abusive/possessive monster.

Though he was born and raised in France, he has an Idahoan accent. Yeah, this seems weird, but deal with it.
