Delusional literary egoist: Fray

Delusional literary egoist, pompous and staccato with deadpan self-importance

Prompt: Masculine, middle-aged, British RP. A pompous, self-important literary egoist. The voice is overly dramatic, breathy, and deliberate, characterized by a misplaced sense of profound genius. High-status but intellectually shallow, with a rhythmic, staccato delivery that emphasizes every word as if it were a revelation. Serious, deadpan, and completely lacking in self-awareness.

Script: Do try to keep up. What you call gloom, I call architecture of the soul, rendered with such precision that lesser minds mistake it for mere darkness.
