Artificial Sun

Artificial Sun

Project Overview

In Edogine, power is a weapon—and every gifted student is trained to wield it in service of the Queen. Each student is meant to carry a single ability. Althea breaks that rule.

An anomaly with two powers she cannot explain, Althea has always felt out of place within the camp that raised her. When Edogine’s carefully guarded secrets begin to unravel, she and her fellow students are forced to flee beyond the only world they have ever known.

Thrown into unfamiliar lands and hunted by forces they don’t fully understand, the students must face brutal trials, shifting alliances, and the terrifying question of whether Edogine was ever truly protecting them—or merely using them.

This is an original audio drama written by me, and it will have several rounds of casting as there are various characters.

I am not picky regarding audio quality, however I ask that background noise be kept to a minimum. The only characters that I have put voice references for are Grunner and Hellebore, however I am open to any and all interpretations!

Please feel free to DM me if there are any questions or concerns.

Additional remarks:

  • There are themes of death, but it's not a lot and it's not that descriptive.

  • This is a passion project so I cannot afford to pay anyone, I'm sorry!

  • I used AI to create the cover as my skills do not extend to art, but I promise the writing is 100% human.

  • Thank you for all the support

    Hi everyone!

    It's officially been a week since I uploaded this project, and I just want to say thank you to everyone who is following along and for all those who auditioned and just for the overall support. You guys are amazing.

    Please rest assured that I am reviewing auditions pretty much immediately. All of you have been doing such an amazing job and I know making a decision for each character is going to be tough for me. The deadline remains 28 February, so there is still ample time to audition if you have not already.

    I want to encourage you all that if you don't get casted in this round, please keep an eye out for other rounds that I will open up as there are many characters who still need voices.

    I look forward to the future of this project, and I can't wait to see you guys there!

Althea
open
Unpaid

Strong willed and determined, Althea is the main character who was born with two powers while all her fellow fledglings have one. She struggles to master her powers, thus making her insecure. She is a skilled warrior but does not do well under pressure. She has dry humor.

  • (frustrated, emotional) I couldn’t even transform into a bug if I tried. I’m not fit to be a part of the Queen’s army.

  • I’m not a time-traveller, luckily for you. We’re stuck in this situation together. We could go around playing the blame game all we want, but it doesn’t change anything.

  • I would like to accept your respect, but if you do not respect all women, you cannot respect me.

Bayard
open
Unpaid

Disciplined, stoic, and to the book, Bayard is a time descelarator who is pushed into a leadership role he doesn't think he deserves. He is a protector and will sacrifice himself to save others. He tends to follow logic and usually makes difficult decisions with little regret. Choice weapon: the arakh.


[I am open to all interpretations and accents, but prefer the English accent]

  • (empathetic) Do you seriously need me to spell it out for you? You’re special. Only fledgling I know with two powers and the most amazing combat skills.

  • (Feigned indifference) We’ll flip a coin. If it’s heads, they die. If it’s tails, they live.

  • (lying) She did great, Sir. I'd be dead if it weren't for her.

Flynn

Unpaid

Flynn is a charming, golden haired telepathist. His confidence holds no hidden insecurity as he often knows what others think of him and has learned not to care. He takes most things lightly, but when he is angry he becomes ruthless. He thinks with his heart, and it reflects in the way he fights (best when the people he loves is in danger). His choice weapon: the sword


[I am open to all interpretations and accents, but prefer an English accent]

  • (Cocky, teasing) I can’t control my powers. Seems we have that in common.

  • (Heartbroken) I’ll kill them all. I’ll kill every last one of them.

  • (Surprisingly gentle) No. Fear lets us know we’re only human...it means we aren’t stupid.

Role assigned to: QuillOWisp

The mentor to the fledglings. He is a gruff father figure who believes strongly in tough love. He is sarcastic but has a heart of gold. He is a mind controller, but has limited access to peoples' thoughts. His choice weapon is twin daggers.


[I'm open to any and all interpretations, but I lean strongly toward Warden Blackwall from Dragon Age: Inquisition]

  • (Protective) You are here for a reason. You will join the Queen’s army, and you will protect her. You will master your powers. Do you understand me?

  • (To a child) Dragon’s are powerful and majestic, but they aren’t invincible. You just need to know where to hit them.

  • Killing children, innocent children... that makes you feel like men?

Ameera

Ameera is someone who struggles with her identity, leading her to be more of a follower than a leader. She is soft and pliable, but due to circumstances she is forced to be strong and brave. She can control all the elements but tends to crack under pressure.

  • (challenging) Should the advantage not make you eager to win?

Ambrose

With his power being super strength, Ambrose is typically seen as pure muscle. He takes the role of the shield in the group, often taking hits on behalf of others. He comes across as overconfident, but actually has a heart of gold once he lets down the exterior. 


[I am open to any interpretation of the character, but prefer an English accent]

  • (soft, frustrated) We can hunt all we want, without water we won’t survive long.

  • (tender) any boy that doesn’t see how wonderful you are is stupid

  • (panicked) “Flynn, stop, you’ll kill her!

Noelani

A teleporter who is often overlooked by most people. While she is strong enough to survive, she is never enough for anything else. Never pretty enough, never strong enough, never smart enough. She lives her life in the shadows, but with those she is closest to, she is quick-witted and goofy. Her choice weapon is a bow and arrow.

  • Yeah but, hey, Bayard said we’d be dead within a fortnight…it’s been a fortnight and we’re all alive.

  • (playful) You’re a telepathist, how is this fair?

Azura is a strong and oftentimes overpowering personality. She says what she thinks without fear and lacks empathy. Although she doesn’t care for the feelings of others, she relies heavily on her own emotions and is driven by feelings. She can control fire and is very overly confident.

Manic and cocky, his life mission is to destroy Grunner, but he is obsessed with the approval of his superior. He has a scar on his left eye from a fight with Grunner back when they were in their 20s, and hasn't forgiven him since. Essentially: he would burn the world down if it meant Grunner gets to burn with it.

Cold and calculating, you never know what's going on in his head or what his intentions are. He is what I call a white and blood villian: his evil is so prominent like blood against the color white. He is heartless and is just a plain villain for no reason. His power is telekinesis

I am looking for someone who can design the book cover as it is currently an AI generated image (I'm sorry I'm not an artist).


This is a passion project so I unfortunately cannot pay anybody. But you will have my eternal gratitude which, to some, is priceless.
