PROJECT SUMMARY
A non-profit fan series set in the canon Danganronpa universe, years after the conclusion of Danganronpa 3: End of Hope's Peak - Future Arc. This series will be a bit more grim than the mainline games, featuring a mostly more grown up cast who have found a great deal of hardship after graduating from Hope's Peak.
Keep in mind, this project is still in it's initial stages at the time of opening auditions.
STORY SUMMARY
Featuring an entirely original cast, these graduates of Hope's Peak Academy's North American division are coming back either as students or faculty at Hope's Peak Grad School. Trapped inside the walls of Hotel Finale, our graduates, now killing game participants, must find a way out one way or another.
NOTES FOR THOSE AUDITIONING
ARTISTS: The planned art style for characters in this series, while still that of Danganronpa, will be a sharper, more realistic version of said style.
EDITORS: There are few to no restrictions here for the auditioning process. Show something cool or original.
COMPOSERS: Upload something you are proud of the quality of.
VOICE ACTORS: Only those with higher quality audio will accepted. You will need to be able to record lines with no background audio, and be able to edit together your lines yourself.

Bob Atlas, Ultimate Comedian. Having graduated from Hope's Peak only the previous year, he has only gone on one worldwide tour. But that was enough.
Voice - Mid range, boisterous, hyperactive, very reactive. Often raises and lowers his voice in pitch and volume as he speaks.
Man, this place gave me weird vibes from the start but this is fuckin bonker bananas! (anxious)
I may be the Ultimate Comedian, but you are a riot! (happy)
You know what? One’s a happenstance, two’s a coincidence, three’s a pattern, you’re an asshole. (frustrated)
Eric, Ultimate ???. He has no idea about where he is or who he is, but seems to be taking it well. Seems.
Voice - Mid-low range, Passive, Tired.
To be honest, I don’t really know much of anything at the moment. I can’t even remember my name. (confused)
Okay. Three ways out of here. Find a hidden exit of which there is likely none, call for help, which would be very bad for me if someone is guarding outside the door, or… I could sneak out. (playful/cheeky)
Sure. Sure. In a bit. (dejected)
Harold Bloom, Ultimate Alchemist. For years he has made a desperate attempt to conquer the greater forces of life and it was not until recently that he has made true progress.
Voice - Mid or Mid-low range, Aggressive, Nasally.
There was supposed to be an event this morning at this hotel regarding the opening of Hope’s Peak Grad School. Those here are either to be students or faculty. (neutral)
Not… smart enough… I am Harold Bloom! Ultimate Alchemist! If nothing else, I have my intelligence. (angry/prideful)
IMMORTALITY! (exaltation)
Harper Lee, Ultimate Hacker. Almost let into Hope's Peak at 13 due to impressing an agent after repeatedly hacking her school's system without getting caught, Harper, despite being the youngest of the participants was actually going to be the head of cybersecurity at Hope's Peak Grad School.
Voice - Mid-High range, Forceful, Scratchy.
Do you see what’s in there? Pool, darts, and a poker table. Best of all are some sick looking arcade machines! (exited)
It's a piece of garbage, so it'll be a piece of cake. (cocky)
You’re not my mom. (annoyed)
Jack Masterson, Ultimate Jack-of-All-Trades. Jack Masterson was always a winner. He always had to be.
Voice - Mid-Low or Low range, condescending, calm, charismatic.
I never bother fixing what already works. Just move to something new. (calm)
Ah, I have visitors. Wonderful. Just when I was getting a bit of quiet. (annoyed)
You’ll be able to see us in a moment, so does it matter if we introduce ourselves now? (condescending)
Jade Yang, Ultimate Dancer. She was born with silver spoon in mouth, so she never learned to do things herself. She's 18 and has graduated Hope's Peak. Now what?
Voice - Mid-high or High range, cheery, energetic.
Dancing to live music is always so much better. It’s like you can feel it in your brain. (cheery/intense)
That is so amazing. I need to try it. (astounded)
Forget about whether it's right or wrong and speak your brain thoughts! (frustrated)
Kara Montgomery, Ultimate Pirate. After spending years searching for her old crew's treasure, she doesn't know what to do with herself now.
Voice - Mid or Mid-Low range, Excitable, Friendly.
Could be a whole new adventure, getting outside like an escape room or fleeing from a crumbling ruin after triggering a deadly trap! (excited)
I don’t mind. As long as we can get out eventually, this place is pretty alright by my book. (relaxed)
I just plopped my sexy butt in a comfy chair as soon as I saw it. (confident)
Ken, Ultimate [REDACTED]. He spent a while [REDACTED].
Voice - Mid-High range, Scratchy, Erratic. Screams and screeches often, so that's necessary.
Just fucking do it already! I am waiting! (coaxing/psychotic)
Oh no no, my darlings. That's not what I meant at all. You greatly misunderstand. (passive aggressive)
*psychotic laugh*
Laurence Williams, Ultimate Street Fighter. A gang bound kid from the streets of Detroit, to MMA World Champion, now loving father of two.
Voice - Low range, powerful, gentle. Can switch between soft and threatening on a dime.
Huah! Ho! Ha! *exhales* Alright. (working out)
I’m not a fan of being cooped up and I told my wife I would call her this morning. She must be worried sick. (worried)
Opinions of our current situation aside, perhaps we should take a look about. (authoritative)
Marisha Lyon, Ultimate Driver. Deposed heir to the Lyon family Motor company, Marisha indulges in whatever pleasures she can to keep her satisfied. She is never satisfied for long.
Voice - Mid or Mid-High range, expressive, intense. Often very crass. Offense always intended on her part.
And I was gonna bust a load of fun crashing the party. (neutral)
So what? It feels good to shoot it, so I shoot! (annoyed)
Yeaaaaaah! (excited)
Michelle Tanner, Ultimate Fantasy Author. Six-time best selling author, still incapable of friendly conversation.
Voice - Mid range, quiet, contemptful. At some point, opens up, becoming confident and assertive.
No more. I'm leaving. (defeated)
Fantasy novels have a purpose. You’re just not smart enough to understand them. (condescending)
That's why you will never be happy. You're not relying on others, you're depending on them. There is a difference. (serious)
Morgan Peterson, Ultimate Lawyer. Law school at 14. Sold out at 18.
Voice - Mid or Mid-Low range, confident, unexpressive.
Come here and look at this. I want a second opinion. (intrigued)
I’m starting to wonder if anyone is actually looking for a way out. (agitated)
Hm. I can’t decide on whether that comment makes you naïve or optimistic. (sarcastic)
Protokuma. The last sentient Monokuma, with A.I. plopped into an old prototype model. He's not quite what he was in his prime.
Voice - High or Mid-High range, jaded, Monokuma. It's still Monokuma. But old now.
Well hi there, kiddos. (sarcastically enthusiastic)
Am I supposed to be polite? Ah, forget it, I’ll just do things as usual. (lost in thought)
Ummm… All residents of Hotel Finale, please gather in the lobby... thank you. (apprehensive)
Ricky Norman, Ultimate Drummer. Out of his band, now out of energy and out on a limb.
Voice - Mid or Mid-Low range, unenergetic, kind.
Shouldn’t we be letting him out, instead of crowding and saying hellos? (nervous)
Yeah. I’m the drummer in a band. I was the drummer in a band. Ricky Norman, Ultimate Drummer, wooo. (apathetic)
Oh. Okay. This is happening now. Might as well! (melancholy/defeated)
Romeo Cevillo, Ultimate Bartender. Got too familiar with alcohol as a kid and wound up in the clink. Not that he's mad about it.
Voice - Low range, gentle, suave. Has a Spanish accent.
Over the course of only a few hours, it would seem that the overall presence of this place has changed, not just the sealing of exits. (neutral)
You truly believe this, yes? You are a madman. I can respect that so long as you can keep the madness contained. (decisive)
A story for another time. (playful)
Sophia Moreno-Sanchez, Ultimate Gunslinger. Was taught to kill right, and does so as one of the last bounty hunters.
Voice - Mid or Mid-High range, tense, composed.
You shouldn’t fire it off so carelessly. You aren’t even hitting the vital spots of the target. You’re hardly hitting the target at all! (angry)
Yep, one of the first Colt Pythons re-released after they started production again back in 2020. It’s a 6” barrel with two hundred yards of deadly goodness. [In response to asking about her pistol]
I'm sorry, but not even you get to hear about Job 37. (apologetic)
Taylor Nelson, Ultimate Therapist. Accidental cult founder and confidant to many of the world's most successful people.
Voice - Mid or Mid-Low range, positive, calming. Heavy U.S. southern accent.
That sounds swell. I suppose we’ll each be gettin on our own way then. (happy)
A small step of progress. (hiding disappointment)
Come now ladies, there’s no need for this excessive conflict. Why don’t we just sit down and talk about it? (concerned)
