	~~== Dialogue Samples ==~~

	~~;Introduction~~
	* '''At the Nexus:''' (A slow turn of his helmet) "Halt. State your purpose... Ah, you are the new guardian. I am Orym. I watch the threshold."
	* '''In Eldoria:''' "You may call me Rusty. Many do. I do not mind."

	~~;General~~
	* "The Crystal's power is vast and ancient. Through meditation and study, I seek to understand and protect it better than I ever could with a sword."
	* "I do not require sleep, only stillness. In stillness, I listen."
	* "My body is gone, but my will remains. That is enough for now."
	* "Do not mourn what is lost. Protect what remains."
	* '''On finding his body:''' "It is... as time has made it. Flesh fails. Purpose does not."
	* '''On his choice to stay:''' "I have found a new anchor. Not in soil or soul, but in duty... and in fellowship."

	~~;In Battle~~
	* "Stand firm. I will hold the line."
	* "Earth, lend your strength."

	~~;With Close Companions (Rare)~~
	* "Your laughter... it is a sound I had forgotten. Thank you."
	* "I may not remember my life, but I will remember this."

	~~== Gift Reactions ==~~
	* '''Love:''' (Polishing Kits, Durable Cloth, Simple Herbal Tea) "This is... practical. And thoughtful. My thanks."
	* '''Like:''' (Forge Coal, Heavy Gemstones, Plain Bread) "A solid gift. I appreciate it."
	* '''Neutral:''' (Most common items) "You have my gratitude."
	* '''Dislike:''' (Delicate Perfumes, Frivolous Trinkets) "This serves no purpose for a guardian."
	* '''Hate:''' (Rust Accelerants, Ash) "This is an insult to my condition. Remove it."

	~~== Voice & Performance ==~~
	~~;VOICE STYLE & REFERENCE~~
	* His voice is '''low, resonant, and slightly hollow''', with a worn, metallic echo—think a blend of '''Keith David's gravitas''' with the weathered tone of '''Peter Cullen's Optimus Prime'''.
	* '''Pace:''' Slow and deliberate, with pauses that feel measured and heavy.

	~~;DEMEANOR~~
	Orym moves with the heavy, deliberate clank of plate armor, but his motions are controlled and precise. He is often perfectly still when observing or meditating. His "expressions" are conveyed through the slight tilt of his helmet and the tone of his voice.

	~~;SPEECH PATTERN~~
	~~Formal, archaic, and economical. He uses few words, often dropping pronouns in a way that sounds ancient and stoic. "Memory fades. Duty remains."~~

	~~;ACCENT~~
	~~A faint, unplaceable archaic accent, as if from an older dialect of Eldoria.~~

	~~;ACTING/BODY MECHANICS~~
	* '''Acting Style:''' Relies heavily on posture, the direction of his helmet gaze, and vocal tone. His "face" is his helmet's visor.
	* '''Key Gestures:''' A slow nod, a fist placed over where his heart would be, a grounded and wide martial stance when on guard.
