Content warning: No Death in the Dollhouse as a whole does revolve around the abuse, neglect, violence, and experimentation toward children. That includes some violent and mildly gory image, but of both adults and youth alike (the artistic content for the children won’t be too terribly graphic - for example, there will be no artistic showing of any minors enduring violence, and the most that will be shown for violence against the adults is a stab wound or something of a similar nature). So if that is already a topic you cannot stomach, then this isn’t the place for you.
On a more minor note, the story also has plenty of LGBT+ characters, so if you’re not comfortable with that either, than you probably shouldn’t join the team.
There are several characters in the story who have been victim to sexual abuse from their past before the start of the story. Whilst this is not ever shown or depicted in the actual base game, it can be ventured and talked about through some of the character’s journals and backstories/flashbacks. The game and creator in no way condones these acts and tries to display them in as negative of a light as possible, but if you are still uncomfortable to be associated or find it triggering to be around such a topic, then that is a more than understandable reason to step away from the offer.
I've had this RPG in production for a while, but recently had a VA needed to drop for unrelated reasons (work, COVID, uni, etc) and so I need to replace them (a few more extras might show up once I get further confirmation).

This is an RPG that follows different player characters. The story takes place in late Edwardian era (really early 1900s) in Pennsylvania, America (a lot of the characters have accents from all walks of life, so there is no need to feel detoured by its location).
Currently, I am not promising any money for this project, but I do hope that I will be able to. But as I do not know what the future holds, I will not say any prices. (I'm planning on setting up a KickStarter/IndieGoGo for this in the future)
All I can say is to at least have a decent mic and avoid too much background noise when it comes to the actual project (I don't mind some shuffling/animal or traffic noise for the audition, though),
Synopsis (forgive how this is crappily written, please):
“For any orphan, it seems like heaven on earth in this beautiful mansion with its many caregivers and the accompanying playmates. Such kindhearted people, with plenty to spare, taking in these poor misfortunate souls. Surely it is too good to be true. Of course, nothing in this world is free, and even this happy home has a price to pay.”
Thank you all so much and I look forward to what you all have to show!
Sora is a very sweet and charming boy with a rather feminine style. He and his older brother were left orphaned at a young age and then eventually separated. Despite all the bullying and harassment he faced on the streets, Sora does his best to remain optimistic in all situations. He's kindhearted and friendly, tends to even get bubbly and excitable.
He is 14-17 years old and was taken in by the "Houses" at the age of 10-13.
Though Sora is technically a teen, he tends to come off as a child since he tends to be youthful in personality (though he's wise beyond his years).
(excited) "Really? Want to play?!"
(relieved) "Belle! You're alright! I'm so glad! I went to your room to get you, but you weren't there. Don't worry about the hatchet, I haven't used it, I only have it for self-defense and so Eri can't have it. Come on, let's escape together! You can put some of your weight on me if you'd like."
(interested at first but then becomes solemn when talking about Kosuke) "Huh. I guess it's easy to be superstitious when you don't know how things work, huh? Though it's still a little cool to think that those who have passed on might really be able to visit us...I'd like to be able to see Kosuke again..."
(suspicious whilst talking to himself) "I know Eri said it was an accident, but I can't shake the feeling that she had done it on purpose..."
(shocked) "There's-there's needles in my soup!"
(menacing) "Ready or not, Eri, here I come."
Both or either world and dialogue sprites can be submitted here.
I have no specific style in mind (and if I don't get any submissions I'll do them myself or I might work alongside whomever is doing them etc), though I suppose something of a more gothic nature would be appropriate, however, typical anime/RPG/visual novel style is perfectly acceptable too.
Say something you think would fit
I will need an artist to help with drawing characters in the scenes, though I might be able to do this myself, it would be nice to at least have a team. Since it takes place in the late 1800s to early 1900s, most of the outfits will be from Edwardian/Progressive era, so you'll have to able to draw clothing like that.

The story takes place in the Edwardian Era (very early 1900s but pre 1910) and in Pennsylvania, America. So music that fits that era would be preferred.
Also, it is technically horror, so a gothic air to it would also be nice every once in a while.
However, typical horror RPG music would also work very well!
