Two New Roles Added!
Princess Talanji and Apari have been added to the casting call!
Hello everyone!
This is a Warcraft Machinima series made in Unreal Engine I've been working on with a bunch of talented folks. I've made story-based machinima content on youtube for a few good years now, so I'm very excited to continue this project after Episode 1, and some audiodramas we've also been making. The TLDR of the plot is an Alternate Timeline where Garrosh Hellscream is victorious in the Siege of Ogrimmar.
As an AU project, it mostly contains existing Lore Characters (which you can find further info on wikis), who may only have a few lines, so all audition lines will consist of lines they have spoken ingame, or alternatively some "fake lines", and not ones in the script (to avoid spoilers). Be mindful some characters may be reoccuring while others having a single appearance, regardless of size, so please keep that in mind when auditioning.
Roles may be added over the duration of this page, and visuals added for characters as their models are finalized, feel free to add notifications to this page as I'll post an update when I add additional characters.
Thank you for reading my ramblings, feel free to ask me any questions through discord at Thompshire
