Pre-casting progress
Currently: as a one man team I have managed to transfer the book to a scripted format, make some early concepts of character designs and some minor animation tests (Mapleshade walk & run cycles!)
The day's before the troubled warrior plagued the dreams of Tigerstar or Crookedstar, a series of unfortunate event's lead to the vengeance of a grieving mother. And the delusion of freedom for her lost kits.
Hello! I'm working on a film adaptation of Mapleshade's Vengeance. This specific call is only for voice actors.
Here are some basic rule of thumb(s)
-The clearer the mic, the better, try to minimize background noise.
-You must be 13 or older to audition
-All discussion will be over CCC, so don't worry about having discord for now!
Anything you do for me is allowed to be used in portfolios/demo reels.

[loving] I had to speak to you, it’s been too long. I waited for you by the Sycamore tree every night but you never came.
[hissing, low] I will never forget this, You have betrayed me and my kits. You will live to regret this day forever, ThunderClan, and that is a promise. [sweeping her kits towards her] This is no longer our home, Come.
[growling]No you’re not, You’re a stupid apprentice. It’s all right, I’m not interested in killing you. I only want you as bait.
Mapleshade! Mapleshade! Grab hold of the branch!
Three kits have drowned in the river, I . . . I am their father.
And now they are dead, Be thankful we have shown you some mercy, Mapleshade. Get out, before we make you leave.
Are these BIRCHFACE’S kits? Is my brother going to live on through you?
[excited] I’m right, aren’t I? Oh, thank StarClan! And thank you MAPLESHADE! You will never know how much this means to me! I… I thought I would never be happy again after BIRCHFACE died in that terrible battle. But now, I can help you to raise these kits! Teach them their father was a true ThunderClan hero! Watch them take his place in the clan!
[anguished] You have betrayed my brothers name! You have betrayed us all with your lies! You don’t deserve to be called a warrior! Nor do those… half clan creatures! Their father killed BIRCHFACE and FLOWERPAW!
APPLEDUSK! There you are! I’ve been looking for you! One of the ShadowClan elders is telling a story about a cat that swallowed a live frog! Come and listen, it’s really funny.
There is no cat more loyal to RiverClan than Appledusk, If I am willing to forgive him for his past mistakes, then so should you, Darkstar.
[SHREIKING] He’s dead!
My warriors tracked the adders to their nest at snakerocks and blocked the holes with stones. Thanks to their courage, no adders have been seen since in our territory.
Have you forgotten that Appledusk murdered my son and Flowerpaw? Of all the cats, why did you have to choose him? You cannot possibly expect my forgiveness.You have betrayed the warrior code and lied to your Clanmates. We will not raise these kits within the walls of our camp, nor the boundaries of our territory. Take them and leave. You are no longer a warrior of ThunderClan.
No I do not. Ravenwing told me about an omen he received, a mysterious stream of water that washed three pieces of reed into his den. Reeds don’t belong in our territory, and certainly not in the heart of our camp. These kits will bring nothing but danger!
[hissing] What were they doing in the river?
A tiny stream appeared in my den, in a place where no stream has run before. It carried with it three pieces of water reed. [pause] Water reed doesn’t grow in ThunderClan territory, It doesn’t belong inside our boundaries. Do you understand?
[spitting] I cannot let you lie to our Clanmates! And now that I know the truth, I cannot lie, either.
There may be a truce, but don’t push your luck, ThunderClan mouse dung!
Remember what happened to BIRCHFACE and FLOWERPAW, those rocks are ours. And we’ll kill as many of your clanmates as we need to until you give them up.
They were lucky they didn’t get bit.
I’ve seen worse.
Too right, remember when MARSHPAW trod on an adder on his first patrol? That's a bad way to die.
What do you mean, Appledusk? What are you talking About?
The loss of any kits is a loss to all of us. But you broke the warrior code, Appledusk. How can I ever trust you again?
[ICY] No, you may not. You will leave this territory at once and never set foot across the border again. Like Appledusk, I believe that the loss of your kits is punishment enough. Otherwise, rest assured my warriors would have clawed your fur off for what you have done.
[excited]A RiverClan cat had to save PATCHKIT!
[shocked]Those are bad words! You’re not supposed to say them!
[upset]You’ve ripped it to pieces! It doesn’t roll away now, look!
No! I want to stay with you forever and ever! Even when I’m an apprentice!
Are we allowed outside? I thought we had to stay in camp till we became apprentices.
[proudly] I swam the farthest, didn’t I?
[shrugging] It was trying to get away, so I caught it!
[pouting] I wanna stay here and practice pouncing! I want to be as good as BIRCHFACE!
[awestruck, whispering] It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
[upset] Steady on MAPLESHADE! You just trod on my tail!
*Say something you think would fit*
I’m so sorry, We couldn’t save them.
I don’t know what’s going on here, but we need to take these kits to Darkstar, he needs to see this.
Is ThunderClan sending their youngest to come invade us?
Those kits aren't old enough to be here! What were you thinking?
You have sunningrocks, not the river! Keep them out of there!
MAPLESHADE! Wake up! Beetail wants you to go on dawn patrol, you’re late!
Where are the kits? Are they in RiverClan?
I was collecting these for Ravenwing But I think you need them more. You don’t smell good, Mapleshade. Please eat them. I . . . I’m sorry about your kits. Frecklewish saw what happened in the river, but I hoped you made it to the other side.
I’d like you to join the dawn patrol please. FRECKLEWISH is leading it.
[surprised] Oh, right, I… uhm… I wasn’t expecting that. Have you told Oakstar yet?
Indeed. [pause] And these kits… the father?
Looks like she killed it. Want to play a different game?
Don’t be mouse-brained. Your father could leap twice the distance! And land on the smallest leaf without disturbing a fly.
You already have. I am ashamed of you.
Oh StarClan, if ever we needed Ravenwing, it is now! Why did you take him from us? Seedwhisker, we need soaked moss, as fast as you can. We have to wash the venom out of her eyes. Thrushtalon, fetch every scrap of fennel you can find in the medicine stores. We have to try to save Frecklewish’s eyesight. Lie still,We’re doing everything we can.
What is a ThunderClan cat doing in the river?
Traitor!
You need to drink, My name is Myler, and this is my barn. You went to sleep so quickly last night that I didn’t have time to introduce myself. How are you feeling? You still look exhausted, Eat the mouse, then I’ll let you get some more rest.
There’s too much, too much,Did a Clan cat do this to you?
Ah, there is no end to their wildness and thirst for blood. You should have left while you had the chance.
Where did that rabbit go?
The trail ends here, but that’s impossible. Rabbits don’t climb trees.
I don’t know how you can smell anything, It stinks of fox around here.
Ravenwing! What happened?
We can’t leave him here, Come on, help me get him back to the surface.
[horrified]He’s dead
[playful]Take that, ThunderClan mouse-dung! Creep up on me, would you? You’re as fox- hearted as your Clanmate!
I’m a RiverClan warrior! Let me go!
Not StarClan, This is the Dark Forest, the Place of No Stars. We welcome you, Mapleshade.
Never, You have come here to walk alone in your blood-soaked memories.
