Beyond The Veil

[Ensemble Role || African American]

Tiaré Vitani is Lumiera’s twin sister—but unlike her, Tiaré was raised in luxury and emotional distance. Their parents, obsessed with power, showered Tiaré with gifts and status instead of love. On the outside, she’s poised, elegant, and sharply intelligent. On the inside, she’s lonely, guarded, and deeply resentful of how invisible she often feels—especially compared to her more “gifted” sister.

Tiaré doesn’t speak often unless she has something to say—and when she does, it cuts with precision. Her voice is polished, but when she’s pushed to her limits, that coolness cracks to reveal a bitter longing for connection and recognition. She’s not cruel, but she is tired of being the “well-behaved one” that no one truly sees.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Can range from sarcastic and aloof to emotionally raw.
- Often speaks with a quiet intensity or dry wit.

- Has one or two emotionally charged scenes where she breaks her usually composed demeanor.

[Lead Character Role || Hispanic/Latina]

Estreia is one of our lead characters. She is a spirited Ovian girl with healing powers tied to nature—and a heart that doesn’t know how to lie. As a supernatural being from the hybrid goat sect, Estreia is full of life, strength, and quiet longing. Her tan skin and green eyes make her stand out in her flock, but so does her compassion.

She is best friends with Lumiera and often plays the emotional grounding force in intense scenes. But Estreia is not without complexity: she hides a secret relationship with a boy she only knows in quiet moments, and beneath her free-spirited charm is a girl desperate to be known—for more than her beauty, her softness, or her rarity.

She is kind, witty, stubborn, and prone to emotional outbursts when pushed. Estreia offers both comedic relief and emotional weight, making her a key figure in both light and devastating scenes.

VOCAL QUALITIES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Bright and affectionate in everyday dialogue

- Grounded and fierce when emotionally cornered

- Honest, emotionally intuitive, occasionally flustered

[Ensemble Role || African American] 

Lua-Selene is the youngest of the Vitani sisters, just 10 years old—and the most quietly haunted. Once bright and playful, Lua witnessed something traumatic at a young age that fractured her trust in her eldest sister, Lumiera. Though she doesn’t remember all of it consciously, her body remembers the fear. Her voice tightens around Lumiera’s name. Her laughter dims when shadows crawl too close.

Despite her fear, Lua is observant, imaginative, and deeply creative. Her unique gift—manipulating music to create harmony or horror—makes her one of the most powerful students at Pneuma’s School for the Gifted. When she plays, her emotions become melody, and that melody can shatter glass or hold enemies in place.

Lua is a soft-spoken child, but not passive. She’s curious, stubborn in quiet ways, and forms strong attachments to people who make her feel safe. Her emotional arc explores healing, memory, and learning to trust again.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Innocent, gentle, hesitant, yet somewhat mature.

- Capable of fear without screaming—emotional tremble > volume

- Emotional range should carry quiet awe, inner tension, and bursts of vulnerability.

[Lead Character Role]

A creepy layered effect will be achieved by casting many people. Auditions for the creepy, bad guy is open to all :D

Kulpah is...not a person. Not really. Not at all.
They are guilt made flesh—an ancient, mist-born entity that thrives in silence, festers in regret, and wears the face of those you love just to tear you apart.

Kulpah doesn’t shout. They whisper, they echo, they linger, it possess. They wear their victims like puppets, shifting their voices, warping their eyes to something unholy, like molten lava.... piercing, inescapable. Wherever there is peace, Kulpah seeks to sows decay.

It's true voice is difficult to define—sometimes charming and alluring, sometimes cracked and monstrous. In some scenes, they sound human. In others, barely at all. The voice actor cast in this role will need to balance quiet manipulation and outright bone-chilling menace.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Can shift from calm and seductive to guttural and vile

- Often speaks in riddles or truths twisted into cruelty

- May need to double-layer or modulate for “possession” scenes (have fun with it)

[Lead Ensemble Role]

Micah is the reluctant heir of a broken legacy...the only son of a once-feared Tenebrian tyrant, now gone. Where his father ruled with cruelty and chaos, Micah yearns for nothing more than peace. However, peace is hard to maintain when the world views your bloodline as a threat.

Micah's big heart, awkwardness, and emotional intelligence often lead to being misunderstood. He’s a protector by instinct, soft-spoken until pushed, and constantly battling between grief and inherited rage. He never asked to lead a sect, and he never hated the Lichterians—even when they took his father away. His heart harbors no hatred, and his love partner Morrigan, hates this about him.

Micah’s emotional range stretches from sincere softness to devastating anger. He’s not cruel—but he could be, if he stopped holding back.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Kind and grounded, but with a voice that could easily become dangerous

- Often speaks slowly, deliberately, like he's thinking through what not to say

- Can snap—but it’s rare, and terrifying when it happens

[Lead Ensemble Role]

Morrigan—once called Iseul—is a castoff of the Lichterian sect, shunned as a child after accidentally leaking sacred information that led to bloodshed. Branded a traitor before she even understood betrayal, she was left behind and raised in the shadows of the Tenebrian sect, taught that light was a weapon used by the righteous to burn the innocent.

She is cold, cunning, and emotionally armored—a survivor in every sense. The real name, “Morrigan,” translates to “bringer of death,” a name she’s reclaimed to wear like armor. Though sharp-tongued and sarcastic, Morrigan is not without feeling; she simply refuses to be seen as weak. Her voice is often calm, deliberate, laced with biting wit or a veiled threat—but underneath the cruelty is a deeply fractured heart that still aches for belonging.

She is currently in a volatile, emotionally heavy relationship with Micah, one of the few people she trusts not to flinch when she shows her cracks.

KEYS NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

- Controlled, cool-toned with the ability to snap unexpectedly

- Able to shift between deadpan sarcasm and emotional intensity

- Unapologetic, but never one-note—must carry underlying grief

[Ensemble Role]

G’Molah is the divine entity who gave light and breath to Pneuma. Not a god in the traditional sense, but a creator—a being of vast stillness and understanding, bound more by observation than intervention.

He speaks rarely, and never without purpose. His voice carries truth without judgment, grace without sentiment. Though distant, he watches everything: the failures, the forgiveness, the fractured souls born of his breath. He mourns them, even as he lets them break.

G’Molah functions as both narrator and guiding presence—occasionally speaking directly to the audience, to the characters, or to himself. When he speaks, the world listens.

[Ensemble Role || Hispanic/Latino]

Nazere is one half of a twin pair—but while his sister Nazarae is spirited, impulsive, and emotional, Nazere is composed, curious, and quietly analytical. He’s the kind of kid who says nothing for an hour, then drops a sentence that makes the whole room shut up and think.

Though he’s young, Nazere is unusually observant and emotionally intelligent. He tends to stand at the edge of chaos, listening, watching, processing everything. He’s not stoic, just selective with his energy. His humor is dry and quiet. His anger, when it surfaces, is rare but unsettling.

Nazere is loyal, cautious, and highly aware of the surrounding people. He may not speak often, but when he does, it matters.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

-Thoughtful, understated delivery

- Should feel like a thinker first, speaker second

- Capable of dry wit, honest emotion, and rare intensity

[Ensemble Role]

Nazarae is the louder, wilder twin—where Nazere watches, she explodes. A ball of feelings and fists, Nazarae wears her heart on her sleeve (and probably stains it with goat hair and glitter). She speaks before thinking, argues before asking, and loves too hard for someone her age.

She’s fiercely loyal, and emotionally reactive, and a total menace when she’s upset. Her voice actor must be able to jump from whining to sobbing to threatening violence in a single breath. That said, when Nazarae gets quiet—really quiet—that’s when you know something is seriously wrong.

She and her goat? Soulmates. Don’t test her...really...don't entertain the thought...

Cress Virellan may be small, but she makes up for it with volume, violence, and terrifying levels of emotional intelligence. A 4’11” Ugenovion with a rare and unstable ability known as Threadburst, Cress has the potential to rival even the elite sects—if only she cared enough to try.

She doesn’t believe in fate, destiny, or being “chosen.” She believes in showing up, fighting smart, and never letting anyone see her cry. She’s the friend who will sew your wounds shut and call you an idiot the entire time. She’s the girl who threads a ring made of her own heartbeat onto a boy’s hand and threatens to flay him if he ever breaks her heart.

Cress is both a chaos goblin and a grounding force. She doesn’t follow the rules—but she’s the one who reminds others why they matter. Beneath the sarcasm and sharp tongue lies a deeply loyal, emotionally guarded soul who's just trying not to be left behind again.

Looking for voice actors with strong delivery, natural sarcasm, and emotional flexibility. She’s mean—but she feels it all. And when she loves? She loves like a war.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

Voice Range:

• Mid-to-high pitch. Sharp, clean articulation.

• Think: emotionally guarded but not monotone. She’s not flat—she’s compressed.

• Her voice can cut glass when she’s mad, but it softens when she’s alone (or with Mateo ).

Tone & Personality:

• Cress is quick-witted, sarcastic, and rarely shows vulnerability first.

• Despite this, she feels deeply. Her guard is high, but her emotions still slip through.

• Voice actors should be able to snap between cold wit and gut-punch tenderness.

• She’s not “tsundere”—she’s “I’ll Threadburst your spine because I love you and I’m scared of it.”

Delivery Style:

• Snarky doesn’t mean loud. It’s about weight behind her words. She’s calculated.

• When she’s being tender, it’s quiet—almost whispered, like she’s afraid it’ll be used against her.

• She’s emotionally intelligent, even if she pretends not to be. There’s always meaning behind the line.

Accents / Cultural Inspiration:

• Cress is a 4’11” Asian-coded character, but no accent is required unless you feel one suits her tone.

• If you want to add cultural flavor subtly in cadence or rhythm, feel free—but don’t force it.

Mateo Solace is the second-born prince of a powerful royal family—but only because they couldn’t control the first one. Despite being seen as the “easier” son, Mateo is anything but ordinary. Beneath his gentle voice and awkward charm lies a young man struggling with an identity he was never allowed to have—a secret Ugenovion with powers too undefined to classify.

Where his older brother Leon is powerful and feared, Mateo is liked, praised… and underestimated. He doesn’t know who he is, or what he's meant to become. But one thing’s clear: he feels everything. He loves with his whole chest. He panics mid-sentence when girls flirt with him. He’s the type to write you a ballad and nearly pass out delivering it.

Mateo eventually becomes romantically entangled with Cress Virellan—an emotionally bricked-up, thread-slinging menace—and it is both the worst and best thing that’s ever happened to him.

Voice actors auditioning for Mateo should bring softness, vulnerability, and a little emotional clumsiness. But when the moment comes, he should snap into passion like a thunderclap. He’s not loud—but he is powerful. And he’s learning to step into that. Especially with the firecracker of a partner.

KEY NOTES FOR VOICE ACTORS

Voice Range:

• Mid-range to soft-low. Gentle by default, with emotional potential to rise.

• Think earnest, poetic, still learning to be brave.

Delivery Style:

• Soft does not mean monotone. There’s weight behind his quiet.

• Let his voice build. He’s learning to hold his own. Show the growth, not perfection.

• Range from nervous confessionals to light-drenched fury.
