Update!
Hello everyone! The first wave of casting is done! There has been a tremendous amount of support for this project, and I thank you all tenfold for that. I'm so glad this turned out well. I've added more characters (male), so if you were not cast or have not yet auditioned, please do! However I also need more people to audition for the roles I have not cast yet. Please please please look over them if you were not cast. If you are not comfortable auditioning for those roles, there is always the extra/minor roles that I need people to audition for. Characters like Amanda, Jasminka, Wangari, Annabel Creme, and more. Once again, thank you so much!
The main protagonist, Akko is an energetic, optimistic but very impulsive girl who attends Luna Nova after being inspired by the witch Shiny Chariot. Having come from a non-magical background, she struggles using magic much of the time, and is disappointed by how boring her classes are as opposed to Chariot's more spectacular performances. However, her strong belief in magic and her genuine desire to use it for good enables her to wield the Shiny Rod, which accepts her as its new master, and gradually discover her own magical talent. Because of this quality, Akko is destined to play a key role in unlocking the Grand Triskelion and restoring the force of magic to the world.
Oh! [in pain] I’m really sorry about that… Huh? [excited gasp] Hey! You dropped this! Are you a new student too? Are you headed to the opening ceremony?! Sweet! Honestly, I was a little nervous myself about travelling to Luna Nova. My name’s Akko! I’ve dreamed about being a witch ever since I saw Shiny Chariot’s magic show when I was six. Or maybe, I bet it’s destiny. You have heard of her, right? The one and only Shiny Chariot?!
No, we can do this! [grunts as she picks up LOTTE] We can’t give up after coming this far! [determined] I won’t give up. I’m going to become a witch! Reach out your hand. Your story awaits! My heart pounds… and my head spins… I will become a witch! [...] Hey, that’s… I’d know that wand anywhere!
When I hold this wand, I feel like I can do all kinds of magic! I feel so extraordinary! [determined she can use magic] Okay. Fly, bed! ...Hm? Now, Alcor, move! I… command you… to move!! [impatient] Come on! Listen to me!! Move move move move move move! How about this! Nothing? [sigh]
Akko's friend and roommate, a kind and soft-spoken witch who worries about Akko's well-being. Her magical specialty involves summoning and communicating with fairies and spirits living in old, used items. She takes a liking to the Night Fall book series.
Watching you brought back memories. I remembered the excitement I felt talking to spirits for the first time as a child. Back when magic meant nothing but fun to me. Maybe having fun with you isn't such a bad option.
I used to get laughed at by the other witches, you know? But when I sang a magic song, the fairies would make a rainbow for me. It was always amazing and beautiful.
The Forest of Arcturus. It's a legendary place protected by magic trees. They say once lost, even a witch would have trouble escaping.
Akko's other friend and roommate, a cynical, mischievous witch from Southeast Asia who specializes in brewing poisionous potions with various bizarre effects. She often uses Akko as a test subject, or to help her in gathering the poisonous or hazardous ingredients she needs. She has a fascination with mushrooms.
The cockatrice only exists in the Arcturus Forest. It has a lethal toxin embedded in its feathers, and its highly sought after by poison collectors. So go ahead and draw its attention while I grab some feathers.
My original plan was to leave as soon as I retrieved the poison. But I heard there are rare samples of extinct poisonous mushrooms, so I'll be staying longer. [...] [quiet evil laugh]
[sarcastic] Yeah, you've only told us about a hundred times.
Ursula is an astrology teacher at Luna Nova. Her real identity is Shiny Chariot, a famous witch performer and alumni of Luna Nova and the one who inspired Akko to become a witch. Her chosen mission was to use her magic skills to bring joy to people's hearts. She mysteriously disappeared from the public eye ten years ago after her former friend Croix tricked her into employing a sinister type of magic, which stripped Akko of her latent magical powers as a child. Now living and teaching incognito at Luna Nova, she takes Akko as a personal student after she notices her strong desire to become a witch, which enables her to use the Shiny Rod and unseal the lost seven words to the Grand Triskelion, in order to make up for her guilt.
[as Shiny Chariot] Welcome to... the world of magic! Now, reach out your hand... your story will begin soon! [...] Never forget... believe in yourself. That's what makes your magic!
[as Ursula] Hm? What's the matter, Alcor? No way! In the forbidden Arcturus Forest?!
[gasp] Is that... she has the Shiny Rod! Recite the spell! You have to use its magic!
The top student of Luna Nova who is greatly admired by her classmates and teachers alike. As daughter of a noble family of witches, she has a serious and arrogant nature and oftentimes clashes with Akko, whom she holds in disdain for her impulsive nature and admiration of Shiny Chariot. Despite this, Diana is secretly a childhood fan of Chariot herself, and gradually develops a grudging respect for Akko. In the TV series, she is additionally revealed to be a descendant of one of the Nine Olde Witches.
[matter-of-factly] Shiny Chariot's magic is frowned upon here at Luna Nova. She's a disappointment. Miss Kagari, is that right? You're new here aren't you.
I'll admit, her show was incredibly popular at one point. But really, the show was only a series of short, cheap tricks that were inevitably due to fail. It's been ten years since Chariot quit her show and disappeared on everyone. And it doesn't seem like anyone really cares about whatever it is she's doing now.
Real magic is cultivated by tradition and countless hours of intense studying. It's not something someone intrigued by a fad can ever hope to learn.
Amanda is a rebellious student from Luna Nova. She is known for stealing priceless artifacts and magical objects that catch her eye. She is an excellent dancer and excels at performing aerobatic stunts on her broomstick. She wears red converse-esque shoes instead of the usual witch boots.
Who needs to take this class seriously? It's too easy. Akko is sure to mess up anyway. It's not like you can keep up with the rest of us, so why do you even try? You can't even ride a broom!
You're way too enthusiastic about stuff. It's how we got into this mess. Anyway, we're powerless against dragons. Even the old hags were nervous about it.
Hey! Who are you calling "pathetic?!"
Wangari is an African American witch and a student at Luna Nova. She hosts the annual Broom Relay race. Wangari is very energetic and passionate with her announcements. Her voice should be medium/low and a bit raspy.
Hello and welcome broom relay fans all over the world! This is Luna Nova News Network with a special report! The stage is set, and all of the riders have gathered for an epic showdown!
Could it be? Our very own Diana! Any word for us?!
Miranda Holbrook is the headmistress at Luna Nova academy. She is short, serious, and very respected. She can be silly at times. She is very patient and warm-hearted, being very accommodating of her students
Welcome back everyone! I hope you all had a splendid break. Luna Nova has raised many girls into becoming great witches. Here, you must devote your time and energy into the study of magic with great determination. But remember to stay humble and be respectful. And now with that, let us begin the ce-- eh?
Listen. Before you pass on to the other side again, I want to say something. There wasn't a single moment growing up that I ever hated you. I followed my passion for magic and even became a headmistress.
Anne is a strict teacher at Luna Nova. She does anything in her power to get Akko in trouble. She is serious and authoritative, demanding respect and discipline from the students. She seems to favorite skilled students such as Diana. She is usually calm, but quick to lose her temper, especially around troublemakers such as Akko.
Despite your little outburst at the ceremony, the headmistress still allows your admission into the program under careful consideration. It's not something that happens every day. You should be extremely grateful.
After all these years, I fail to understand why you still don't have the proper dignity of a teacher...
These symbols are the ancient alphabet system used by witches long ago. They are a type of segmental script. Is there anyone in the class who can read the letters on the board? [...] Proceed, Miss Cavendish.
Barbara is a student at Luna Nova, and she is always accompanied by Hannah. They both follow around Diana Cavendish and act as her loyal friends and assistants. They are very mocking girls and disrespect Akko and company. Very valley girl-esque.
Hey, did you hear? Apparently one of the new students this year isn't from a witch's family. [...] I heard they're not doing so well and they need to let in anyone they can get their hands on to keep the school running.
Way to go Diana! You're even smarter than Badcock.
[mocking] Did you bring this toy for show and tell? / Did you spend your allowance on it? / [improv nasty remarks]
Hannah is a student at Luna Nova, and she is always accompanied by Barbara. They both follow around Diana Cavendish and act as her loyal friends and assistants. They are very mocking girls and disrespect Akko and company. Very valley girl-esque.
No way! They've been letting in way too many commoners lately...
You really don't know who Diana is? Have you just been living under a rock or something?
[mocking] Are you really that dumb? / This is a broom stop moron. / Did you bring that toy for show and tell? / [improv other remarks]
These lines are for the various Professors at Luna Nova. I'm going to need a different person for each character. I would like whoever auditions to read all of the voices so I get a feel for who I can cast you as. If you can't or are not comfortable with reading any of them, that's alright as well. If you are cast, I will not select your audition, but I will private message you and give you further details.
Flight magic class is now in session. New students will practice the basics, everyone else work on acceleration. Let's get to it!
As discussed in previous lessons, Pythagoras is said to have been the one who created the basis of modern magic and storytelling. Now, turn to page nine hundred and twenty-three, line one hundred and two. Using numerology, you can depict the universe on a scale of one to five-- huh?
With each stir of the pot, the colors begin to change. Next, add a live frog to your concoction. The frog must be added to the water while still cold to achieve the proper outcome! Then add Newt intestine and the ground claw of a bat. Add these ingredients little by little, then...! Do you smell that pleasant aroma it's giving off? [laugh]
Earl is a non-magic aristocrat who manages the county that Luna Nova resides in. He is also the father of Andrew Hanbridge. His voice should be deep and, well, fatherly? I'm not very picky about this one. You can add a British accent if you like.
Andrew. [...] I've heard that there are witches from Luna Nova in our house. Did you allow this knowing how I despise them? Magic is an evil craft left over from a bygone era. As statesmen, we must ensure that the future of our nation is guided by our hands. We don't need witches.
It's just politics. You have a tendency to be captivated by useless things.
A muggle young man from Appleton, he thinks magic is outdated and boring. However, since meeting Akko, it seems that his views on magic are changing. His father is an aristocrat named Earl, and he has a best friend named Frank. His voice should be medium/low and snobbish; you can add a british accent if you'd like.
I'm getting tired listening to all that insincere praise.
[sarcastic] I've seen that you've taken time from your busy schedule to grace us all with your presence, Diana. I'm honored.
Akko? Why are you even here? I'm fairly certain you weren't invited. [...] Should've known. Twisted logic from a witch. I'm sorry, but I have to ask you to leave.
Another non-magic, and best friend of Andrew. He is light-hearted, friendly, blonde man with an interest in magic. His voice should be medium and upbeat.
Diana! You remember me, right? I-it's Frank! Always a sight to behold, aren't you!
You don't look like you're in too good of a mood. Have some cake!
I need minor/extra characters for lines and background noises. I need multiple people, so if you are cast you will not get a notification. I'll send you a private message with further details.
Huh? There's no station here. We would know.
Too many tourists. It was really hard to enjoy anything.
Look at her go! / Shiny Chariot is amazing! / Woah! / [improv]

There's more than just Amalie, I just refuse to put it in because it's a long ass German name. Anyway.
*Say something you think would fit*
Jasminka is a friendly and laid-back witch student. She is originally from Russia and LOVES food. I mean it. She is always seen snacking on something, even during class.
