Project Overview
This is my 3rd Original Minecraft TV-Show!
Synopsis:
Sixteen-year-old Kayden McCay’s life is shattered when his best friend, Tommy Bent, son of powerful business mogul Frank Bent, is killed in a sudden mugging. Struggling with grief and guilt, Kayden’s world takes an extraordinary turn after he is struck by lightning as he desperately tries to get his fallen friend to the hospital, but after he wakes up from a year long coma, he mysteriously gains superhuman abilities.
As Kayden grapples with his newfound powers, he discovers an unlikely mentor in his homeroom teacher, Mr. Jonas, who guides him in mastering his abilities and understanding the responsibility that comes with them. Together, they uncover a rising threat of dangerous villains emerging in the city.
Driven by loss and armed with powers he never asked for, Kayden steps into a secret life as a hero, determined to stop the darkness that took his friend, and to protect a world that has no idea how much it needs him.

Jack has one of the bigger arcs in the season! He goes from Darker almost batman like (Edgy) to a more lighthearted hero type of energy. (Enthusiastic) So for the best chance of getting the role, use the provided emotion cues! :D
Jack Jenson AKA Jet Boy is a brilliant young inventor who was forced to grow up far too fast. After losing both of his parents in a violent attack, Jack throws himself into technology, strategy, and problem-solving as a way to cope with grief and regain a sense of control. He is the kind of kid who always seems two steps ahead mentally, but emotionally, he is still trying to figure out how to survive what happened to him.

Jack (Smart): Vertical Intercept Gear for In-air Locomotion, Aerial Navigation & Tactical Evasion AKA the V.I.G.I.L.A.N.T.E. Prototype 1
Jack (Enthusiastic): It's working! It's really working!!
Jack (Edgy): You’re made of paper and you’re playing with fire? That’s either confidence or a cry for help.
Tommy Bent was once confident, playful, and fiercely loyal, the kind of friend who pushed others to be better, even when they didn’t believe in themselves. But after a traumatic incident orchestrated by his father, Tommy was transformed into something else entirely.
Now known as The Viper, he operates as a precise, professional Super soldier for hire. calm, calculated, and terrifyingly efficient. His actions are not driven by rage, but by something far more unsettling: emotional absence. Under the influence of a memory and empathy-suppressing serum, The Viper carries out violent orders with detached focus, treating life-and-death decisions like routine tasks.
However, beneath that cold exterior, Tommy still exists, trapped, aware, and unable to control his own body. After Bolt frees him he gains super speed and becomes a super hero named the Roadster who fights crime alongside Bolt and Jet Boy making the New Valley Trinity!

The Viper (Sly): Just hand over the Prototype and no one has to get hurt.
Tommy (Stern): It's not about whether you can, it's about whether you're willing.
Tommy in a smug tone: So tell me. Kayden: Oh no. Tommy (Sly): Did Val say yes? Kayden awkwardly: WHAT! N-no Of course not! Tommy scheming: Is that so? Tommy grabs his water bottle and dumps it on Kayden's lap… Kayden: BRO! Tommy as he laughs uncontrollably: This is what happens when you lie to me! A girl comes walking up… Val: *soft Chuckle* What happened here? Tommy (Confidant): Oh K had a little “Accident” Kayden: DUDE!!! Val: *Chuckle* I hope you can get that taken care of before lunch, I wouldn't want you getting my table wet. The girl walks away… Tommy (Smug): You're welcome. Kayden: You suck. Tommy (Blunt): You're useless.
Mr. Jonas is Kayden AKA Bolts Homeroom Teacher and is a retired superhero known in his prime as White Rush, after losing his legs he retired. Now older and more cautious, he serves as a mentor, strategist, and moral compass to Bolt and Jet Boy AKA Jack
He is calm, calculated, and often blunt, valuing discipline and responsibility above all else. Jonas doesn’t believe in reckless heroics, he believes in preparation, control, and making the hard choices others avoid. While he may come off as strict or emotionally distant, everything he does comes from experience… and regret.
Beneath his composed exterior is a man who has lost, failed, and survived long enough to understand the true cost of being a hero. He sees pieces of his younger self in Kayden, and while he respects Jack’s intelligence, he is wary of putting more children in danger.
Jonas rarely raises his voice, when he does, it matters.

Mr.Jonas (Formal): Everyone please give a warm welcome to our newest Student Mr.Kayden McCay. And I'm sure everyone has heard about his circumstances, so please be respectful and don't pry! Kayden, do you feel up to introducing yourself?
Mr.Jonas (Formal): You have progressed extremely fast, I'd even call you a Natural! But you still have a LOT to learn. On the other hand I believe you're ready for your suit!
Bolt: Mr.Jonas how fast do I need to go to run up a wall? Mr.Jonas over comms: At least 234 MPH! But keep in mind on the ground, gravity pushes you down, creating the normal force needed for traction so your feet don't slide. On a vertical wall, gravity acts parallel to the surface, not into it. To get traction, you will need to push your feet into the wall. That takes a considerable amount of strength!
Charlie is sharp, enthusiastic, and endlessly curious she is the kind of person who can keep up with a genius and still challenge him. Living in the same orphanage as Jack, she quickly becomes his closest friend and emotional anchor, balancing his intensity with warmth and humor.
She’s incredibly intelligent in her own right, especially when it comes to problem-solving and tech, but what truly sets Charlie apart is her emotional awareness. She notices things others miss, when someone’s hurting, when something feels off, when silence means more than words.
Charlie brings light into heavy situations. She jokes, teases, and keeps things grounded, but when it matters, she steps up without hesitation, offering support, insight, or even tough honesty. As the team grows, she becomes their eyes in the sky, helping coordinate missions and keep everyone connected.
At her core, Charlie is someone who refuses to let the people she cares about fall apart alone.

Orphan Girl (Enthusiastic): Hi! I'm Charlie! Nice to meet you!
Charlie (Smart): Well you're on the right track, but how are you going to account for the extra G-Force caused by the bigger engine?
Charlie (Enthusiastic): Thank god you're okay! Jack, you never told me you were friends with Bolt!
Frank Bent is a powerful businessman and the head of Bent Corp, a man who built his empire through intelligence, ambition, and a complete disregard for morality. To the public, he is polished, successful, and respected. Behind closed doors, he is calculating, manipulative, and ruthlessly pragmatic.
Frank does not see himself as a villain. In his mind, everything he does is necessary, progress requires sacrifice, and emotions are obstacles to efficiency. This philosophy extends even to his own son.
Where others would hesitate, Frank acts. Where others feel, Frank calculates.
He speaks calmly, even when discussing horrific actions. He rarely raises his voice because he never needs to. His authority is absolute, and he expects obedience without question.
Frank’s greatest strength is not physical power, but control, over people, systems, and outcomes. He is always thinking several steps ahead, and when things go wrong, he adapts without hesitation.
Later he takes his work too far, and loses his body and mind becoming the vessel to Bazaro...

Kayden: I've been meaning to ask will there be a funeral service for Tommy? I looked all over online and couldn't find one. Frank Bent (Enthusiastic): Yes of course. Things have just been busy with the company. But we have one set up, a few weeks from now, it will be private of course. Kayden: So Friends and Family? Frank Bent (Neutral): I’m afraid it's only for blood relatives. Kayden: B-but what about all his friends!? Me!? Frank Bent (Smug) Oh please. It would just cost more.
Frank Bent from the Helmet: Target is located in that new parking garage on 5th! Kayden: WERE ON! Frank Bent from the Helmet: I don't know. Some politician made another politician mad, now you kill him.
Bazaro (Insane): HAHAHAHAHAHAAH
ShadowStep was a scientist at Bent Corp. He was fired after he failed to stop Jet Boy from taking information! After he was fired he took a pair of Artificial Super powered gloves that let him convert electricity into HUGE waves of Shadows. That envelop his target in black fog taking away their ability to see. He then moves in for the kill with high tech goggles he uses to see. After he is sent to Prison we find out that all the Electricity permanently fried his brain making him go Insane giving ShadowStep his Insane personality. He blames Jet Boy for losing his Job and his life's dreams. He becomes one of Bolt and Jet Boys first Super Villains!

Alter ego: Frank Bent
Powers: A gemstone on his suit that can create a beam of purple light that can morph into any shape
Origin: Frank was a White Rush mega fan since his childhood and aspired to recreate him when he lost his speed. But what started as a wholesome attempt at restoring a Hero became a criminal masterpiece. He made a formula that when injected can give the user Super Speed, he then hired a merc to shoot his son so he could steal his body and turn him into the Super Hero he always wanted to be, and the formula worked and his son Tommy was a Super Soldier for hire, but after Tommy learned what he would be hired to do he declined, but that didn’t stop his father his father made a new formula that removed Tommy’s ability to feel feelings and his morality. But the head scientist warned Frank that the Serum wouldn't be permanent, and the way to reverse the effects was by reminding him of his past. With Tommy under his control Frank orders Tommy to take out Bolt, but little did he know, Bolt was Tommy’s best friend and that he would save Tommy from being controlled. Then he joined Bolt and became the Roadster and the three Bolt, Jet Boy, and the Roadster band together to stop Frank once and for all!
