Elderly male: Thistle

Elderly male, frail and thin texture. High-pitched, wheezing, and brittle vocal quality. Slow, rhythmic pace with frequent pauses for breath or toothless chuckles. Speaks with a nostalgic, melancholic tone that shifts into pathetic pleading. Resigned emotional tension. Archetype: The discarded patriarch. Sounds like a man living in confined, dusty conditions, clinging to fading memories.

Script: Oh, I remember when this place had music in it... warm bread, lamplight, people laughing. Now it's just dust and drafts, so sit a spell, won't you, and let an old fool feel less forgotten.
