Old Warriors Roleplay Stories - Youtube - Voice Actors Needed

Project Overview

BACKGROUND INFO: please skim before auditioning!

It all started in 2013. At eleven years old, a spritely young Gravy, newly awakened into the world of feral battle cats, created a proboards account on a website titled Grass Beneath My Paws. GBMP was a loosely organized, booming roleplay forum for fans of the Warriors books. Under the username Flash, a world opened up to young Gravy (even though they remained two years under the minimum member age for the site, but whatever, what the admins didn't know wouldn't kill them) full of adventures and character creation, OOC and IC relationships aplenty. It is from these adventures that I bring to you, six years later, a series dedicated to telling the lost stories of an old forum.

This should be the part where I introduce the series' name in a dramatic way, but I don't actually have one yet so I'm going to take a raincheck on that-

THE PLAN:

I intend to illustrate and voice over threads sequentially to retell some of the stories my group and I concocted in the Warriors universe, from oldest to newest, 2013 to 2018. These threads will come from two forum websites: GBMP, which is inaccessible to guests, and Credence, the reboot. I asked for permission to share these threads on the old roleplay discord, to which everyone agreed.

I'm not entirely set on a video format, but I definitely need a few assisting roles in the series' creation if you're interested.

THE ROLES:

- I plan on illustrating the series myself, but help with coloring, lining, cat anatomy, and scene construction would be nice ^^ These will be referred to under the Art Assistants role below.

- I can't voice every single character, so Voice Actors will also be very appreciated. The next section describes the characters in vague detail for skimming purposes.

- Instead of reading directly from the posts, I may decide to paraphrase the narrative for comedic or dramatic purposes. For this, I'd like to request Script Assistants to interpret the threads with me.

- In some cases, a flat image might not express a scene in a manner that does justice to the narrative. For these cases, I'd like help with basic animations if possible. This role is titled Animation Assistants below.

THE CHARACTERS:

To begin, I'd like to tell the stories of Mothfire (1 and 2) and Wrenfeather. These narratives do not intersect in any way, but I love both (?) of these characters with my whole heart and I want to share this undying love with the world. More in-depth information on these cats will be under their respective audition cards.

Wrenfeather (kit, apprentice, warrior)
open
Unpaid

Wrenfeather often trips over her words. She tends to babble in order to express her thoughts, rather than take the time to sort them out silently and concisely. She also tends not to trust her own feelings and constantly second guesses everything she does or says, running them through her head over and over to nitpick every detail. Wren distrusts others' opinions of her, especially if they're positive. She is very expressive and wears her heart on her sleeve; to hide this fact, Wren tends to become very defensive and prickly, but this reflex usually doesn't last very long.

More info, taken from her biography/application:

"Ferocious by nature and quick to judge, Wrenkit sees the worst in almost everything. Despite this however, she can grow to be protective and kind towards others who act the same to her. Her pessimistic attitude is only eminent when danger arises, when she easily thinks up the worst-case scenario. This does not make her a coward, for she has a lion's heart and will do anything in her power not to see that worst case played out. Though many might say otherwise, this little she-kit will become a terrifying warrior that protects all she holds dear, no matter the cost - her own life does not seem so important as soon as something threatens an important aspect of the clan."

Please choose any group of quotes to read, or all of them if you wish! Please do your best!

  • Taken from Wren and Jumpy's second meeting:

    "If you didn't 'jump' to conclusions you would've seen that I was referring to you when I spoke about nosy toms. But...I'll forgive you on one condition: You have to swear you won't make me declare hatred on you and all your future and present kin. Cause I will."

    "For the last time. I am not that young. But if you get to call me that than I reserve the right to dub you Elder."

    "Maybe I never gave a compliment. So what? It's not like I could say simply 'thank you'. I'd feel like an egotistic badger. But I think I could get used to being nice. Even to an elder."

  • Taken from Wren and Jumpy's romantically tense walk through the pines:

    "Hm. Yeah. Kits are generally...uh, small. Have you seen a kit the size of an apprentice? I sure haven't. Therefore, you're argument is meaningless. So there."

    "I'm surely not hilarious, adorable or...uh...shy. You just make me kind of nervous." mumbled: "But I'm glad I amuse you."

  • "Yes...I'm a mentor. But it's hard because I'll just blab about a random thing and he'll sit there because he's quiet but I know he's looking forward to training, as that little excited glint in his eyes kind of gives him away, but Spottedpaw doesn't want to talk to me and I'm worried that I'll never even remember what his voice sounds like and then I'll be a horrible cat and-"

    "W-wait! I don't mean to say that there's trouble, it was just a joke okay that's all no need to help anymore it's all good! Heheh."

Jumpflight (apprentice, warrior)
open
Unpaid

*Note: be prepared to be insufferably gushy and cheesy if auditioning for this role. I'm just warning you. Please have fun with it; think of Jumpflight as the love interest in a Wattpad fanfiction and you'll be fine.

Jumpy is really sweet and goofy, almost insufferably so.  He tends to become very emotional and is often the slave of his own heavy and intense feelings. He has been friends with Wrenfeather since kithood, along with Gingersnap. Jumpy has an expressive and good-natured disposition and his voice very much reflects that. 

More info, taken from his biography/application:

As a kit and young apprentice Jumpflight was known for his bubbly and ecstatic nature. Something he never seemed to lack was happiness no matter how dreary a situation appeared to be. He always managed to look on the bright side of things and see the positive that most would see the negative in. Though as Jumpflight grew into his apprenticeship he lost his kit like hyperactivity and instead traded it in with a nice dose of a cool collectedness that he lacked as a kit and young apprentice. With age comes maturity and Jumpflight has certainly matured into a fine young warrior. 

A new trait that later appeared is Jumpflight’s sarcasm and overall charismatic appeal. His laid back and easygoing personality makes it easy for others to converse and talk with him. His overall friendliness makes him a pretty likable feline. He’s fairly hard to anger or annoy having a strong resilience to obnoxious cats and the patience to deal with them. Something he lacked as an apprentice with his short attention span.

Jumpflight is very intelligent and has enough intellectual sense to intelligently answer questions most might find tricky to answer. He also seems to have gained a spout of wisdom that he came to realize through observation and through personal experience. Jumpflight tends to take on more responsibility than he can manage, often times overloading himself with tasks until he finally collapses. He doesn’t like worrying his friends and family with his petty thoughts and concerns and often times naught keeps thing’s to himself unless he feels like his opinion is actually needed. However, he’s there for everyone else that he holds dear. Always putting them first before himself. Jumpflight honors his word and agreements whenever he makes them. He tries to stick by them even if they may appear wrong to others. His whole thought is that sometimes you need to be as sturdy as a tree when the world is against you. 

The tom has a slight flirtatious streak that he lacked as an apprentice and kit. It’s not like he knowingly plays with a she cat’s feelings, it’s more of a playful banter that he does every once in awhile. Every once in awhile you can get a glimpse of a sarcastic personality from Jumpflight, one that he doesn’t show very often. He normally only shows this when he’s playing around with his friends, meaning no real harm. Having a litter at a young age has gifted Jumpflight with the perspective of seeing the world differently. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows, yet he realizes how perfectly imperfect the world is. He has learned what the meaning of sacrifice means when he had to sacrifice his dignity for his family’s health. He’s also grown protective over his kits, wanting them to grow and flourish, yet not overshadowing them to the point where he’s suffocating them.

  • Taken from an emotional thread featuring an uncomfortable love triangle:

    "I would have thought that if you had a problem regarding our friendship, you would have come to talk to me about it instead of going behind my back and talking to a complete stranger who knows nothing about us. I seemed to have misjudged you though." (not angry, just sad)

    "Do you know what that's like? Losing your mate and being left to handle four kits on your own while having to deal with the clan's scrutiny? Not only that, but I didn't have two of my best friends by my side. I thought you were so disgusted and ashamed of my kits and I that it was agonizing, Wrenfeather! I needed your help coping with Shinji's loss and you weren't even there for me, despite me being there for you when you needed it the most."

    "Oh Wrenfeather, you don't get it. I don't want you to agree with me or feel guilty or ashamed of yourself. I only want you to be there for me here and now. I want my friend back.”

  • Taken from the most sickly sweet dialogue I could find:

    "I was young and foolish. I didn't know what love was back then and though I don't regret having my kits, I do look back now and see that I didn't feel for Shinji the same way as I feel for you. With you, my emotions are more passionate and real, if that makes any sense."

    "I've come to realize just how important you are to me and I want to share an extraordinary life with you by my side. My heart beats only for you, Wrenfeather, and it'll only beat for you."

  • Some more dorky dialogue:

    "Remember when you exclaimed that snow was your new mortal enemy? Ah, very good times indeed. Though you have to admit to an apprentice a kit as small as you was worth calling Little One. You can't deny that."

    "I am honored to be your one and only fluffball. I shall serve you forever and always."

    "Well, I'm glad that you're glad that you amuse me. I'm glad we got the chance to know one another, though. Honestly, despite your faults you've been a very good friend. I couldn't ask for a better companion."

Mothfire #1 (apprentice, warrior)
open
Unpaid

Mothfire #1 is childish and sarcastic. He likes to feign importance and is a sucker for interesting conversation. He speaks with a certain intelligent flair that includes long, winding sentences and heavily descriptive vocabulary. Self-assured and over confident, Mothy #1 is also a big softie for those he likes.

More info, taken from his biography/application (be warned, it's a bit long):

Snarky:
Moth hates admitting he's wrong, and as a defense he will either shoot a clever comment at the offender or sarcasm his way out of looking stupid. He always gets the last word, even if no one hears besides him. He holds grudges against those who threaten to harm his way of life, his thought process, or the few cats he cares about, and will not hesitate to create an elaborate plan to lower the respect those unfortunate ones receive.

Manipulative:
Mothpaw is not honest. At least not in the conventional sense. He worms his way out of tough situations with clever twists of wordplay and half-truths. It's impossible to tell if he's lying based on voice alone, but the giveaway few realize is the slow, sly smile he dons and the split-second flash of emotion before-hand.

Loyal:
Despite all his shortcomings in the honesty and respect department, Moth is a very loyal tom. Once he finds someone that matches whatever "standards" he deems appropriate, he will never betray or do wrong that cat. He will do anything within his power to keep them safe, but not in the sheltering sense. He'll assure himself they're strong enough to face the world so they'll know how to face the world. It's his redeeming quality.

Wise:
Mothpaw spends lots of time puzzling out many of life's surprises. It's almost as if he sees it as a divine duty, as he speaks so highly of the wonders of the world. No matter what, he seems to know what to do, even if he's frustrated and suggests an idea in a last-ditch attempt at fixing whatever's the matter. As a result, he feels as if he's the qualifying candidate for solving problems (and he probably is, to be honest, but let's not inflate his ego).


Please choose any group of quotes to read, or all of them if you wish! Please do your best!

  • Taken from various threads:

    "My business is exclusively to train to be better at the skills I'm taught. It's a bit late, of course, but I prefer the solitude."
    "The day goes as the leaves turn, of course. We dry up in exhaustion before the sun is set. However, today I am feeling particularly awake,"
    "I do happen to believe there is a plan for everything, actually. Whether that plan is for the future in this forest, or the grand scheming of Starclan, either way everything is bound to happen. If it's not, then why are we here in the first place? Chance is irrational."

  • Taken from Moth and Bun's escapade in the tunnels:

    "Interesting trails of thought...by now that is expected, don't you agree?"
    "By the by, whenever I see you I simply must discover what is afoot and, why, doesn't that correspond nicely to today's discussion? The layers of pawprints that we are adding to right now belong to so many ancient cats, and we might be stepping in sync with an echo of the past."

  • Taken from Moth and Bun's first interaction:

    "What is important is what you do with that. What you learn from it. If you choose to do so, you'll always grow."

    "Things that may change who we are or how we perceive things, those we can never hope to predict. But yes, as you said, no matter what we feel the perpetual need to move along and experience the next stone in the river of life, trying to eventually get to the other bank."

Mothfire #2 (warrior)
open
Unpaid

Mothfire #2 is much more fleshed out than his older counterpart. I revamped the character for Credence and he became much more sychophantic. He uses his eloquent speech to sweet talk his way out of trouble and into others' good graces. He's slippery and sly and inspires innate distrust within everyone he meets, but in rare cases, Mothy is genuinely sweet, even if he isn't aware why. Moth hates being trapped and only maliciously and physically lashes out if he happens to be. Any other time, he is cool-headed, extremely rational and egotistical.

Additional info taken from his biography/ application:

Mothfire has some qualities that most would consider negative; he's dishonest, a smooth talker, and even a smidgen manipulative. With a tendency to avoid talking straight facts and having a way of worming his way around difficult social spots, Moth is not an easy cat to trust. However, those who manage to get past these barriers find themselves in possession of a loyalty that knows no bounds. While difficult and slippery with words, Moth is a good ally to have in regards to his wisdom that is beyond the usual scope of those his age and the skill in which he twists situations. He spends a great deal of solitary time thinking about the wonders of the world, and those who dare dig past the hard exterior find a curious and loyal cat with whom to convene with.

NOTE: this character has a british accent for no reason other than that's how he's always sounded to me. Please incorperate this into your audition if you can!

  • Taken from misc discussions:

    "I hope as much as well, but I believe we can afford to avoid discussion about vendetta within the clans, as the state of things is uncertain and will remain that way whether we speculate or not."

    "Yes, it is important to support a cat amid trivial times. There is nothing that takes priority above that." (this is a blatant lie)

     "I'm afraid he is far more forgetful than I assumed and training is going rather slow, though I assure you I am trying my very best. He also seems...relatively downtrodden, if I dare mention. But despite that setback -surely it will smooth out in time- many things are faring well." (here he is referring to his apprentice)

  • Taken from Moth and Darkky's first meetings:

    "My name is Mothfire. Ah, though I may say, Darkwoods is quite the ethereal name. Reminiscent to the atmosphere of a downtrodden sky, if you will."

    "Hmm, that's a puzzling opinion. I'd say the silence is a chance to expand one's horizons, learn new skills...plan the next phase of attack. Do tell, why is it annoying in your humble opinion?"

    "...Yes, of course, only for the better. We wouldn't want any...say, corrupt ideas spreading around, would we?"

    "But I cannot do anything so reckless in this precarious position. To do so would be detrimental to certain ideologies and achievements, and I don't fancy failing to prove myself capable of the weighty responsibilities I've been given so courteously."

  • Taken from Moth and his apprentice's training thread:

    "It's alright, Badgerpaw. I understand your predicament. It was pretentious of me to assume you'd remember yesterday's conversation. And I promise, my time is never wasted." (also lying)

    "It is up to you to decide what is best for you. Do what will make you happy. I'd bet that ridding yourself of the responsibilities of the clan would make you very happy, but the decision is yours, of course."

Screechstar (warrior)

Unpaid

*Warning: this character is involved with touchy and potentially triggering topics such as abuse and implied rape!

Wow, what an asshole. The leader of Shadowclan is even more disliked than Mothfire, and that's sure well saying something. Sadistic, wolfish, and ambitious, tangling with this large tom is like asking for a slow, painful death. He rules with fear rather than love, but can be alarmingly charming and affable if in a good mood. His voice is deep, raspy, and level, but almost always with malicious undertones.

More info, taken from his biography/application:

Screechstar is a very daring cat. He likes to take risks and gamble, willing to put everything on the line in order to gain something greater. He's ambitious with his goals and ideas, wanting to see his clan prosper before all others. His dedication towards his clan knows no bounds and could never be questioned. Everything he does is for his clan's benefit. Screechstar is a very determined cat who doesn’t give up easily. His determination to excel at many things is his main drive, his focus. It’s something that keeps him going even when the task at hand is difficult to accomplish. No matter the challenge Screechstar puts all his effort into accomplishing his goal. His devotion to his clan is another thing that helps drive him. It’s an essential building block to his very being. He strongly believes that his clan is superior compared to the rest of the four clans. His egotistical side can be a nuisance. He thinks very highly of himself and very poorly of others outside of his clan, he often thinks he’s more important and special than other cats even if that may not be true. He often times comes off arrogant and he’s not afraid to show his ego. After all, it’s a part of him and he wouldn’t change for anything or anyone. Screechstar as a very strong hatred for half-clan cat's and kittypets, believing they have no place among the mighty pureblooded cats that belong to the clans. Anyone known with mixed blood with be looked down upon by him and picked on to test their worth. Screechstar while not a strong believer of Starclan, and while he believes in the warrior code as it's there for a purpose, he tends to bend the rules in his favor. One rule in the warrior code he upholds is being loyal to the clan and any forbidden relationships found out would be severely punished, along with any resulting kits.

Screechstar is a proud and dignified feline, someone who holds himself to high expectations. He acts almost regally when in the presence of other clans. He is proud of who he is and his clan and isn't afraid to show it off, no matter if it annoys others. He's a little on the devious side, someone who's both looking for trouble and causing it. His charismatic playful attitude can be almost offputting, especially when he's well known for his cruel punishments, sardonic mind games and terrible mood swings. Never will you catch him in the same mood twice in a day, he's always changing, always adapting. It's like walking on eggshells when near him, waiting for a volcano to explode. No matter his mood Screechstar certainly is a wild one, a wild one worth dancing with.

Please read all lines and do your best!

    “Hey, mouse brain! You mind keeping it quiet over there? You're scaring all the prey away. If you can't be out here go back to see Frostbite. I don't have time for useless warriors!"

  • "Rabbit-eating mongrels think you can trespass on Shadowclan territory without repercussions?! What would a little mouse like you be doing on the other side of the forest like this, hmm?"

  • "A border patrol is due along the Windclan border. I shall lead this border patrol personally myself."

Dragonflywing (warrior)
open
Unpaid

Dragonfly does NOT like Moth #2. At all. Despite the two's similarities, Dragonflywing is always watching Mothy's every action with suspicious pique, waiting for him to slip and spill. It began with Mothfire's appointment as deputy (he was very young and many cats thought him too inexperienced for the role, justifiably) and extended to his shady behavior concerning Darkwoods and her entire debacle. Much like Cosmosblossom, Dragonfly never trusted Mothfire for a second.

More info taken from his biography/application:

Dragonfly is a silent tom; he tends to keep his true thoughts and ideas to himself, only voicing them if he feels he must. Dragonfly is an observer, a watcher, much like a fly on the wall. He is quick at gathering Intel based on this and it is one of his best skills as a warrior. Dragonfly has excellent perception and is good at keeping himself hidden in the long grass throughout the territory. This aspect makes him a little mysterious and almost a bit of a wild card.

Dragonfly is fairly respectful and polite, despite his silence. Unfortunately though, he is incredibly stubborn and hot-headed. His hot-headed nature is always expressed fairly uniquely. Dragonfly is not the type of tom to openly get frustrated, stomp his paws and walk off; it is more a silent rage that burns inside him. Dragonfly’s anger is expressed purely through words rather than actions.


Please read all lines provided and do your best!

    "Indeed. I can’t say I know much about ThunderClan’s new leader….But, I’m sure we will learn more at the next gathering.”

  • "Oh great, who have you selected that may cause controversy? ...Whatever. If he screws up, I'll be sure to be there watching and laughing in amusement." (on the topic of Mothy's deputy ceremony)

  • "DARKWOODS! You disappear for a moon, don't go on any patrols, and essentially leave the clan to assume that you're dead or captured, and then just show up--! Explain. Quickly, or Mothfire is certainly going to have to deal with this."
