Here We wander {Original Audio Drama} Casting Call

Here We wander {Original Audio Drama} Casting Call

Project Overview

Hello and welcome to the casting call for Here We Wander!


This is an audio podcast in a format similar to Welcome to Night Vale and Alice Isn't Dead. More characters and details will be added as time progresses. It will feature episodes told in a train of thought/narration style from the perspectives of different characters to progress the story. All of the lines, story, and title are a work in progress.


I will not cast anyone until after the auditions meet the deadline. I will however give feedback early if requested. This is also posted on Behind the Voice Actors.


It all started with the rifts. The cracks seen throughout space and time. Shining light so hot and bright it felt like being touched by the searing hands of death itself. They don't know why they were chosen, ripped from time and sent to another plane of existence, another reality, another planet. All they do know is that they are now here, trapped in a sort of purgatory of the unknown, and they must do whatever it takes to survive.


Individuals from all over time on Earth have been transported to Nowhere, a strange alternate dimension or world with terrifying monsters and perils. In order to survive they must work together to uncover the secrets and find a way to safety.


It is here they wander.

    Thank you all so much for auditioning, the response I have received is amazing!

  • Final Two Characters (For Now)

    Hello everyone! Woohoo, there is a little over a week left of auditioning! Thanks for all the interest and spending your time to audition for my project! I know a lot of you want feedback, and it will come, but it might take a little while.


    As an update, there are going to be 2 final characters added to the list.


    At this point there will be 12 characters, but some may take a while to enter the show (or potentially could be used for another project) so please be patient if/when you get the part.


    Thank you all so much! Seychelle and The Wisp should be added soon.

  • Two New Characters

    Hello again!

    Immeral is a being (accepting both male and female auditions) from the next stage of Earth. Immeral is kind of a mix of an Elf and a Vampire. Serving as an antagonist of sorts.


    Thank you so much for the auditions so far, and I hope these two new characters interest some of you!

  • Toast

  • (Narration) I reckon she ain’t from a place like this, not with that getup. Did you know jewels like those could shine so brightly? I tip my hat and give her my signature smile. She's definitely one to keep my eyes on, for more reasons than one.

  • (Narration) The revolver twirls around my finger and I hit the hammer lightning quick. The bullets fly and the beast cries. Such sweet music to my ears.

  • (Dialogue) Well howdy m’lady. What brings you to this place on such an unlovely evening?

Role assigned to: d flat minor

Time Period: Deadlands , 3001


Voice: I am completely open for the voice. The character’s gender is not locked yet so I will take both male and female auditions. This character is partially inspired by Mad Max so bonus points for an Australian accent.


Personality: Kooky. Scatterbrained. Animalistic.


Backstory: Most of civilization fled when the Earth’s resources became limited. Those unable to afford a ticket were forced to fight for whatever remaining resources were left. After years and years had passed society had reverted back to limited technology where whole clans revolved around hunting and gathering food and water. Toast just wants to survive.

  • (Narration) Step on bug, step on bug. Crunch heads first. On my hands and knees now scooping up it’s little guts. Toast gets to eat. Guts not good, not bad, just food. Never enough of it here. Not for me, not for rest. Everything comes down to making sure belly monster is kept at bay.

  • (Narration) Toast kills for food. Like all do. Only killers left in world. Some are friends. Some were friends. And some Toast will have to kill soon. Their heads don’t crush quite as easy.

  • (Dialogue) Kitty has nice hat. Toast wants to wear it to blot out sky circle.

Queen Nephysera III (Neff-Uh-Sear-Uh)
closed
Unpaid
cast offsite

Time Period: 18th Dynasty Egypt, 1345 BC

(Inspired by the mysterious disappearance of Nefertiti.)


Voice: Her voice must hold power and authority. She demands respect with her words.


Personality: She puts herself on a higher pedestal than everyone around her. Regal, methodical, and cunning. She has a sharp tongue and is not afraid to say what is on her mind.


Backstory: From the moment of her birth Nephysera was destined for greatness. She was chosen to be the vessel of the great gods, to become the ruler of her kingdom. She married at age 14 to the Holy Pharaoh Atenaten. Although she despised him she put up a good front and they ruled together for five years. Bringing hope and spreading the beliefs of the gods.

When Atenaten died of a mysterious accident she was crowned Pharaoh. She was popular by many, but hated by a select group called the "Cult of Osiris." After the first attempt on her life she began studying the art of war and self defense. She ruled solo for several years as the chosen conduit of humans and gods. Now she has been chosen again to pass through the rift, and traverse Nowhere.

  • (Narration) Mortals are fascinating creatures. I noticed it first in her eyes. The way they betray her words of confidence when they shimmer and shake in fear. This ever haunting notion of death’s lingering presence. A concept I have all but forgotten, for a god does not bother with such trivial matters.

  • (Narration) The relic is cold in my hands. An object so odd and angular with etchings flowing down the sides and radiating out a soft blue light.

  • (Dialogue) You think you can scare a god. I know not of your people or your intentions, but I will not hesitate in defending myself. Plus I hold this relic of death, I would advise you tread cautiously.

Sir Asher Pentaghast

Time Period: Medieval Europe Reign of King Lionheart, 621


Voice: Deep and heroic. British accent preferred, but I will accept anything.


Personality: Noble, bold and adventurous.


Backstory: Asher has been training his whole life to be a knight. Born into a respected working class family, the son of a blacksmith, he has had to work hard to given the opportunity of squire. His day finally came and as a squire he went on many exciting adventures. After several years of service he was ready to become a knight but found himself in Nowhere. Technically he was never knighted, but decided to address himself as knight anyways.

  • (Narration) Never had there been a maiden so fair before my eyes. That’s when I noticed the magic. The strange way her face glowed like dying alchemical runes or a fading torch. She was far more than just a mere damsel.

  • (Narration) I raised my sword, outstretched like an extension of my hand. With heavy steps I charged forward, visor down, teeth clenched tight. There must be victory today.

  • (Dialogue) What a peculiar magical device, this revolver. I don’t see how it could be more effective than a blade, but I think I would enjoy trying it out in combat.

Arix 337 (Air-Icks 3-3-7)
closed
Unpaid
cast offsite

Time Period: Machination Era X3 , 2321


Voice: I am looking for a human sounding emotional voice. Accent not that important, but know Arix has a Japanese background. I will gladly hear robotic/cyborg filters but attach it after a filterless voice please.


Personality: Cold. Blunt. She is trying to keep her emotions locked away, but she lets them slip on occasion.


Backstory: As a human she was a star soldier of the Worlds War, a battle that pitted humans against machines. Arix (Air - Icks) was nearly fatally wounded and awoke to find herself cybernetically repaired. Over 50 percent of her body is now machine including part of her face, both of her legs and her heart. At first it caused an internal crisis of faith, but over time she has learned to enjoy the benefits of her new self. Notably she became fond of fighting with leg blade attachments.


Airix became a bounty hunter tasked to hunt down robots, humans and cyborgs who did not follow the new peace accord. At the time of entering Nowhere she had brought in 337 marks.

  • (Narration) Log Entry 12: My scanner has picked up a faint heartbeat in the distance. Target is human, no cybernetics. I am unable to discern threat levels so I’m not going to take any chances. Stealth mode has been activated and I'm now in pursuit.

  • (Narration) She stares at me. And stares. For too long. I see her eyes linger on different parts of my body, trying to comprehend just what I am. Good luck. If you find the answer let me know kid.

  • (Dialogue) Nice costume Red. Drop your weapon or lose your hands.

Time Period: Ireland , 2016

(Inspired by Amelia Earhart)


Voice: Prefer Irish/British/Scottish, but I will accept any. Lighthearted. Fascinated and in wonder most of the time. Scientific and professional... sometimes.


Personality: Friendly and intelligent. She is used as the audience surrogate to introduce the story.


Backstory: As a student of archaeology Dr. Amelia Stone has traveled to many places. Nothing could prepare her for Nowhere. She is fascinated by oddities and terrified of the unknown. In a way she feels like her entire life has led to her discovering and documenting her findings of this place.

  • (Narration) Everything about her emanated in a natural glow of beauty and power. I had found her. All the books and online articles documenting theories and speculations of what had become of the great Nephysera (Neff-uh-sear-uh), and I was the one to find her... Well technically I guess she found me.

  • (Narration) Now that it was dead, it was really quite a remarkable creature. The severed tentacle oozed more of the fluorescent blood, bubbling up in the sand and lighting up the pond’s water. I really hope this thing isn’t poisonous, I’m famished.

  • (Dialogue-Excited rambling. Losing any professionalism.) How should I refer to you? Pharoah Regent? Queen? Goddess? Oh you are so beautiful and...wow I can’t believe its really you. Could I, uh, have your autograph? Ooh, you probably don’t know what that means. What I’m trying to say is that it’s an honor to meet you my lady.

DIVA SEYCHELLE
open
Unpaid

Time Period: Red York. Genesolaris Era X2, 2714


Voice: Melodic and beautiful. Powerful voice.


Personality: Charismatic, naturally demands attention, slightly odd in a charming way. She is inspired by Diva Plavalaguna from The Fifth Element, mythological Sirens, pop stars like Lady Gaga as well as Garnet from Steven Universe.


Backstory: Seychelle wasn’t born she was created. Everything about her was carefully chosen, genetically spliced together to make her perfect in every way. She was to become the most beautiful, most exotic, and most hypnotizing creature in existance. Made to be a star, forged to entertain the world, and that is precisely what she did.


An international mega star, a diva with a singing voice so mesmerizing she can bring people to tears. Seychelle was an icon and a media darling, and she loved what she did, until they started to make the next models. She was still popular, still celebrated, but deeply humbled when her competition was crafted to rival her.


She finds Nowhere as an opportunity to finally do something she wasn’t created for: To go on vacation. To live a life where she not only isn’t famous, but unknown to everyone. Although she may look delicate, the splicing has actually made her quite strong and tough on both the inside and the out.

  • "(Narration) How can anything be so quiet? This world hardly sighs, and the inhabitants barely whisper. All I have ever known is the screams of adoration that still ring in my ears. The beauty and magic of being on the stage as I expose my soul for all to witness. Perhaps I could get familiar with the hushed silence and learn to love it equally as much."

  • "(Narration) Vacations are stressful to express it simply. As far as I can tell this whole myth about stepping away from your regular duties is just to get people to die of boredom."

  • "(Dialogue) Is it just one? *small laugh/chuckle* Oh darling, please trust me when I say that I can handle this!"

cast offsite


Time Period: Ancient Green, 129


Voice: Captivating. Potidaea is a storyteller. Charismatic and fun, with a warrior's heart for battle and adventure.


Personality: Dramatic. Over the top. Brave.


Backstory: Born into an Amazonian tribe, Potidaea has always loved the idea of stories. As others excelled in archery or hunting she would often exaggerate their exploits and share it with the clan. One day she decided to travel the world as a bard, to gain exciting new tales to tell to anyone that would sit and listen to her. Never did she dream she would go so far.





  • (Narration) The light was shining, so hot and bright that it burned my eyes. The world went white and then it wasn’t the world anymore. Not my world at least. It was like nothing I had ever seen before.

  • (Narration) Her hair was red like fire, and the dots around her piercing green eyes could have been connected like a constellation of stars.

  • (Dialogue) This is going to make for the best tale in all the lands, I just know it.

Marisol "Muerta" Calavera
open
Unpaid

Marisol “Muerta” Calavera


Time Period: New New Mexico. Genesolaris Era X1 , 2642


Voice: She has Mexican ancestry, but comes from a futuristic world that has blended together. Therefore a Mexican/Spanish accent would be nice, but it is not necessarily required.


Personality: Witty and heroic.


Backstory: Marisol Calavera was born a Special, a person with genetics that provide an affinity to superhuman traits. She has the unique ability to absorb the energy of living things she touches, giving her super strength and healing amongst other things to the extent of what she absorbs. If she absorbs too much she could very likely kill the being she touches. Though Specials are a rare group, they have been recently accepted into society and no longer hunted out of fear and experimented on by the governments.


Marisol grew up inspired by stories of mysterious vigilantes, helping to keep the world safe and using their Special powers to stop villains. She knew that one day she was going to be one of those heroes. After hard work and training she decided it was time to just that. Under the title of “Muerta” she roamed the streets with a vigilante team, stopping evil threats and doing her best to save the day. One day she absorbed too much energy, going out of control and her own team had to work together to stop her. She has always feared that her powers would lead to others seeing her as a villain, and now she works twice as hard to be seen as a hero.

  • (Narration) This is a new one. Either I am in some kind of pocket dimension or that guy killed me and I am dead. So this must be what hell looks like then? Kind of disappointing really.

  • (Narration) I feel the creature’s life flit in and out as I grab onto its slimy tendril. Draining the very essence of the beast into my heart and soul. The sensation of power invigorates my bones. I know I should let go, but this small taste of strength is intoxicating. I want… no… I desire more of it.

  • (Dialogue) Welcome to purgatory, where things get odder by the minute and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

N.01R (Noir)

Unpaid
Role assigned to: bodtchboy

Time Period: Machination Era X3 , 2321


Voice: Up to you. He has a bit of a noir detective vibe, but you don't necessarily have to show that in the voice. I will gladly hear robotic/cyborg filters but attach it after a filterless voice please.


Personality: Cynical and Jaded towards life. Methodical and precise.


Backstory: N.O1 R was born a mutated creature in a polluted post war Earth. His family was forced to disown him and he should have died of natural causes shortly after. Instead he was taken and experimented on. He was test subject Number 01 R, often being referred to as R or Noir. Roughly 80% of his body was replaced with cybernetic enhancements, removing his mutations, but also removing what humanity was left inside him.


His entire brain is mechanical and because of that he sees and processes the world as if he was a machine. It led to him being fascinated with puzzles, and solving questions. He started an illegal private investigation business, helping those in need, sometimes going against new charter regulations.

After his most recent case, the bounty hunter Arix 337 was sent to claim him, when they both wound up in Nowhere.

  • (Narration) She has been hunting me the last few days. Arix 337 (Air - Icks 3-3-7) they call her. She is thirty one cycles, seven days, twelve hours, and eleven point two seconds old. 52% cybernetically modified. She received the silver medallion for her service in the Worlds War and turned cybernetic on Septimus 3, Era X1 after a Red Bomb detonated in New Tokyo. That’s what the database says, but I have learned that sometimes zeroes and ones don’t tell you the most important thing about a person: What is in their soul?

  • (Narration) Am I wrong for being created this way? An imperfect creature stitched together by gears and circuitry.

  • (Dialogue) This place vibrates at an odd frequency. My mind just keeps screaming errors. I don’t know where we could be.

Immeral
open
Unpaid

Time Period: Pale Tree, 4 NE (New Earth)


Voice: Undecided on male or female as well as the type of voice. This is a character that can be dark and conniving.


Personality: Playful and sometimes sinister.


Backstory: The world had all but died, and from its ashes grew a tree of unnatural whiteness. With this Pale Tree came new life, greenery, with new types of species and kingdoms built on top of the dead. With this reset of Earth, society turned into that of fantasy, with rumors of magic and mythological beasts of old returned.


Immeral is an ancestor to the humans of old, but mutated by radiation and adapted for the next wave of existence. Immeral is a Nos’Lith, a tall and lanky predatory species with ears long and pointed like an Elf, and teeth and nails sharpened like a canine.


Nos’Lith are similar to vampires in that they love the taste of blood and the thrill of the hunt. Blood tastes best when the heart is beating at its fastest and Immeral is known to play with it’s victims to make sure they are at their most delicious point. Immeral is not just a monster though, beyond the thirst is an intelligent creature. A being that is trying to fit into this New Earth.

  • (Narration) I embrace the warmth of the red. It continues to gush and spurt down the side of his neck and I savor every drop, so rich in fear and uncertainty. The bloodbag runs dry as the eyes begin to glaze over. I sit on the cold sand and wipe the blood from my chin as he breathes his final breath. Thank you stranger, you were quite delicious.

  • (Narration) Nos’Lith (Noss - Lith) are so hated and feared that I stopped even trying to reason. One thing is for certain, eventually everything runs. It’s a lonely life, but it’s mine.

  • (Dialogue) Oh come on friend, I need some red every now again to survive. You can’t stop me from doing that! You’re not a monster are you?

The Wisp
open
Unpaid

Time Period: Canada. 2156


Voice: Soothing and deep.


Personality: He is like a salesman of the dead. Is a bit of a rogue/thief. Says things that somehow sound both trustworthy and shady at the same time.


Backstory: There is a man, no one really knows his name for sure, but he responds simply to “The Wisp.” He is a collector of sorts, robbing graves and harvesting plasma of recently deceased individuals and then selling it on the grey market. It’s illegal, but the money vastly makes it worth it.


This plasma can be used for many purposes, but most importantly it can extend the life of those that take it. It is because of this it is unknown how old the Wisp is and how long he has been robbing graves.


He isn’t a bad man, just an opportunist who frankly really likes money and doesn’t think the dead will mind if he borrows from them every now and again.

  • "(Narration) I insert the syringe. Quick and precise, as per usual. The grey fluid fills up the vial and I place it with the others in my satchel. I give Mrs. Henderson a slight nod before reaching up and pulling myself out of the grave. Alright, who is the next volunteer? What about you Mr. Smith?"

  • "(Narration) Okay something is definitely wrong. I don’t think I’ve ever seen people look so lively before. It’s unnerving..."

  • "(Dialogue) You know, I think I could do wonders for that permanent frown you have going on there. Give me half of your food rations and I will whip you up a rejuvenation vile with your name on it!"
