New minor roles added
Hello! We have added a few small roles to the posting to help fill out the cast!
HXM: The Audio Drama Season 1 Part 2
Project Overview
Hopeless Media is happy to announce its second official project, HXM: The Audio Drama!
If you are unfamiliar with our work, the video linked will take you to our most recent episode of The Terra Arcanum Chronicles!
HXM is aimed to be an anime styled show, in audio format, from voice acting, to special (sound) effects, and themes.
HXM, or Harbinger X Machina (We say the X), follows two men, Nero –a hot-headed hunter with an affinity for fire magic, long swords, and a big appetite–and Finn –the level-headed adventurer with a proclivity towards ice magic, frugal spending, and getting dragged into trouble– looking to form their very own adventurers guild. After racking up the necessary funds, they are heartbroken to learn they are missing the necessary commendations to earn an official license. Along the way, Nero and Finn meet a band of unlikely allies that join them in their efforts to stop a sinister plot involving man controlled monsters, political assassinations, and the dealings of one Demon.
The first season is currently being written, with the first half completed with the back half currently being written at the time of posting this.
