Synopsis:
In a world where power is measured not by bloodline, but by the suit you wear, four ruling monarchs, each bearing the title of "King" or "Queen", govern a fractured land with uneasy alliances and hidden grudges. But when the legendary figure known only as The Joker, the unifying leader of them all, is found dead, everything changes.
Kira, the rebellious King of Diamonds and the Joker’s last protégé, accuses the other rulers of murder. But with no clear alibi himself, and a reputation for volatility, his words fall on skeptical ears. Suspicion festers as upon meeting in the Hall of Suits, John, the calculating King of Spades, Victoria, the emotionally unhinged Queen of Hearts, and Damien, the enigmatic King of Clubs, all deny involvement, while hiding secrets of their own.
As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, war seems inevitable. Old alliances crumble, new enemies emerge, and underground factions begin to move in the shadows, some seeking justice, others seizing the opportunity to claim the Joker’s empty throne and riches.
Beneath it all lies one burning question:
Who really killed the Joker… and why?
The Joker’s Ace is a character-driven, plot-heavy audio experience. We are looking for passionate voice actors who are eager to breathe life into complex roles. Must be open to cursing/swearing.
If you love stories like Code Geass, Death Note, K Project, or Akudama Drive, this project might be perfect for you.
