DOWNBURST : DawnBringer - (Musical Gacha Series)
Project Overview
Downburst is a dark, slice of life - highschool - drama - and adventure Gacha club series about students of the sacred academy of wizards who gets dragged into catastrophic missions solely to retrieve the Sphere of Mana (the source of mana, life - and it is what maintains the stability of Haโartzemor - the world where the series is set in) upon the rapid death of magic and its users which is referred to as the "DownBurst". It involves reincarnation, modern day kings and queens, made-up religions, and of course - Gods.
(I'VE DECIDED TO KEEP THE QUICK PLOT INTRODUCTION QUITE VAGUE AS TO NOT SPOIL TOO MUCH OF THE PROJECT.)
Aside from what was mentioned, DownBurst is also written to raise awareness about contemporary (mostly emotional / behavioural) issues which highlight the constant ups and downs in teenage life. With the goal of bringing something new to the table in the Gacha Community.
It is currently only a passion-project, with payments depending on the project outcome as I'm currently only an 11th grader. Please be informed, DownBurst may also require it's voice actors to curse HEAVILY ranging from the usual curses to more vulgar slangs. It's rating, as of now, is currently for ages +16 because of it's vulgar language.. but some characters can be voiced by people younger than the preferred age as those characters wouldn't be a subject to swear words as much.
This is also WAVE 2 of auditions.
