Cedar : Season One
Project Overview
Basic Information:
Hello, I’m the CEO of Wooden Wolf Studio LLC, Johnny! For a few months now, I’ve been working to create this animated series (the one the page you're on is for).
All main roles have been cast (besides King Florence who we’re casting a new VA for), but we still need supporting, minor, and extra characters to be filled. We have descriptions of each character posted to their respective audition section as well as three lines to make things easier; improv is always welcome after reading what’s provided, however.
Series Description:
Simply put, ‘Cedar’ follows our four lead protagonists as they journey across Ayanterra on a mission to confront the vengeful King Florence. Why are they confronting him? Why does he seek revenge, and on who? Audition, and you’ll have the chance to find out! (But, of course, everyone who watches it will know eventually…)
Please note that all characters are four-legged, wolf-like creatures! If you’re uncomfortable with that, please don’t audition. :)
Requirements:
+ Must be 18 years or older to participate! Don’t lie, you’ll be wasting our time.
+ Discord will be our main form of communication - please provide your tag in the text box of your audition.
+ Be prepared to answer some questions upon being cast, nothing too personal will be asked.
+ You will need to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) after answering the aforementioned questions.
+ This is a long-term, multi-season project! Be prepared to work with us for over a year! (If something happens and you can only make it for the pilot episode, we can cast a new VA for your role - hopefully, not after that.)
Other Notes:
+ Voice actors will take more time to be decided upon than artist roles such as animators and character designers.
+ We will cast multiple people for extras, character designers, music composers, animators, background artists, and storyboard artists.
+ Audition for extras, please! You're more likely to get a role that way, and you might be asked to play a minor or supporting character later on!
+ We may have understudies for some roles.
+ Some characters will be announced later on since I'd rather not have people waiting for months before they get to actually do their role. It's bad for moral.

General
Florence is the King of Ayanterra (the main setting) and lead antagonist of our story. He can be kind, but is usually upset due to him scaring off his brother (years ago) and others saying that the same brother is either long-gone or dead. His friends and main supporters are Rhyland and Princess Reine (she was given the role of princess in exchange for keeping his people happy).

2. Confused and scared as to why Andre (the mage) is showing an image of his brother, Prince Mikah, in his mirror.

Ah, Rhyland! Such a pleasure it is to see you've returned. Please, love, go on with your report.
Mikah..? Andre, why are you showing me this?
Oh, love... You poor creature... If only you were never saved by that dear Marceau. Hahaha… You should not have returned to this place, darling.
General
As the lord and head guard of Kinmaroe (a large village South of the capital), he’s seen as the intimidating leader type - with a heart of gold, of course. Gabriel may be a bit scary when you first meet him, but he has a way with words and calming people down with his mighty laughter. Generally, he’s kind, honest, jovial, and can fill a room with his presence.

Marceau! Glad to see you, old friend.
Heh. Prince Mikah is long gone… Florence should know that by now.
Of course, you’ve come to the right place! I’ll lend you any volunteers that come forth and a third of my guard. Just to ensure all goes well.
