On behalf of the Disneyland Character Casting staff, we appreciate your auditioning for the role of "Troll."

However, the consensus of our judges was that your performance, while sarcastic, lacked the comedic depth we expect for that role, lacked dramatic focus.

We found your wishing to be known by the name "Paltry" unsettling, given the etymology of that word:
Quote:
"mean, worthless, despicable," 1560s, probably an adjectival use of noun paltry "worthless thing" (1550s), associated with dialectal palt, pelt "trash," cognate with Middle Low German and East Frisian palte "rag," Middle Dutch palt "broken or torn fragment." Similar formation in Low German paltrig "rubbishy," East Frisian palterig "ragged, torn."
We want our Trolls to be subtly wicked, while still being folksy, and attractive. The glint in their eyes should suggest mischief-making, not malice.

Wishing you a brighter future, Disneyland, International.
