STORY
The Brass Eagle Tavern is a magical and ancient place--its walls echo with the stories of many travelers. The building gets its name from the eagle statue affixed to a clock above the central fireplace. When the clock strikes midnight, the entire tavern is whisked away and reappears somewhere new.

ABOUT THE CREATOR
Hi! I’m Connor, a professional 3D modeler and voice actor. Welcome to the Brass Eagle is a project I’ve been developing since late 2021. I’ve worked on feature films, animated series, and advertising. You can find my full credits on my IMDb page, as well as some of my past work on my website.
ABOUT THIS CASTING CALL
While this project isn't going to be NSFW, certain episodes deal with elements of personal trauma, abuse, violence, and more. If you're considering applying, please be aware of this. For lack of a better description, we’re aiming for a PG-13 rating.
This project is LGBTQ+ friendly and contains characters of many different identities. Unless otherwise specified, actors of any identity or accent are welcome to apply to any role.
These characters are all open casting, so feel free to audition for any you feel may be a good fit. The only one with established pronouns is the fisherman, who goes by he/him; regardless, anyone is welcome to audition.
Other characters will be rewritten to better fit an actor’s preferred identity. The goal is to find actors that can embody the characters convincingly, with the details following suit!

The Priest (OPEN CASTING, any pronouns // 91 words)
The Priest is a clergy member of the Convalescent Church of Light. They fully subscribe to the Church's belief that mages are responsible for the continued absence of the gods, and we encounter the Priest as part of a group sent to apprehend a character who has recently developed magical abilities. They are a "holier-than-though" type, often with an air of condescension. Nothing overtly cartoonish, but certainly sinister.
This character will suffer an off-screen death, so we are looking for someone who is able to record a variety of convincing screams and other sound effects.
We have matters to discuss with you. Matters of religious importance.
You had your chance to do the right thing! You’ve chosen your side–the side of WICKEDNESS! Magic like that can’t be allowed to exist! Do you have any idea how many people have suffered for it?!
Gaaaah! Get them off! GET THEM OFF!
