Project: Vigilante

Project Overview

'Project: Vigilante' is a hero project, a story planned for various mediums (i.e. website, visual novel, animation) this particular casting call is for a series of random, simple, animated shorts, mainly depicting the life experiences of the protagonist and self-proclaimed hero a.k.a. Rifa. The first short will go public in January 2025 and monthly thereafter.

This is a long-term project with an estimated timeframe of 3 to 4 years, so roles will be added as needed even past the deadline (save the project to get updated).

Plot to the shorts:

A group of friends establish an odd-job firm, completing requests in order to fund an investigation into the mutations that had befallen them at the start of this all. They get caught up with suspicious clients, gang fights and everyday troubles, befriending and making enemies of the most peculiar of people along the way. Over time, while learning about the world and people around them, the skits become less random and more focused on certain themes and characters.

Information regarding roles:

  • Consider this unpaid (payments deferred until Patreon reaches minimum goal www.patreon.com/akarifa - will be via PayPal - please be 18+ or gain parental consent!)

  • Cast will be required to provide either a social contact/email/phone number

  • Discord is acceptable; you will be invited to a server where announcements, rehearsals and discussion will take place (not compulsory to join)

  • Lines and scripts will be uploaded to a Google Drive folder, deadlines are a month apart to account for the cast having a life

  • Upcoming roles will be added as needed here even past the deadline, save this project to get updates and/or submit an audition for the unnamed roles!

Finally, I encourage you to try more than one role, resubmit, improv and have fun with it! If you need more information on Project: Vigilante, guidance on character lines or anything else, DM me or leave a comment!

All the best!

Latest Updates

  • Take The Stage!

    The selection process for some of the characters have finally come to an end; roles will be closed off over the next few days, indicating that a voice has been assigned. You've all done an incredible job and I've admittedly underestimated the difficulty I would have with choosing a talent behind each character. I'm excited to be building such a wonderful team!

    For those that didn't make final selection, weren't shortlisted or don't hear from me at all; this isn't a reflection of your vocal talent. You all did brilliantly which, as I've mentioned, made shortlisting and selection unimaginably difficult - for that, please give yourself some credit.

    Wherever you go next, I'm sure you'll take the stage by storm!

    (Oh, and happy Halloween!)

  • The Shortlisting Begins!

    Firstly, my sincerest gratitude to everyone who auditioned. After coming back from a hiatus, my hopes were quite small in reviving the project but you've all given me new hope and I aim to see this through to completion with your help.

    I will start selecting who I would like to hear more from for the named roles. I'll be in touch over the coming weeks to further gauge suitability to the role you've auditioned for, this will involve recording a set of lines with specific emotions then recording a short script. You'll receive more information when I contact you, but as a heads up: practice the vocal profile, do a few takes and ensure good audio quality.

    If you weren't shortlisted but have auditioned for the unnamed roles, I will most likely want you on board so will get in touch as there are quite a few unnamed characters and upcoming named characters that need voices. These roles are always open so, if you haven't already, feel free to submit an audition for them! You will also receive an invite to the project Discord server (optional to join). Please have patience if I'm taking a while as there's quite a few of you.

    I want you all to know that you have the amazing ability of bringing a character to life and I can't thank you enough for choosing to do the same for Project: Vigilante.

  • A joke? No, no, no. I have every intent to kill you, believe me. I just want to take my time, after all, I think you'll agree you're quite undeserving of a swift death.

  • Aw come on, it's a harmless prank! Don't be like that, I'm not always...well, alright, but you have to admit, it's funny! No? Ugh, kill joy.

  • We've analysed the notes right down to the ink, sir, every office in the town has a printer that uses it. There's no way to—...you want us to ask everyone who owns the printer if they're the anonymous informant? Oh...you're joking. Our cameras? No, the security team were unable to identify any irregular activity. [sigh] I'll check, sir. Excuse me.

  • I'm...I don't know what to say. I didn't think she was capable of doing this. What should I do? Do I call the police? If our mum finds out she's going to kill us.

  • [manic laugh] I like that look in your eyes! Does that mean you can feel it? Can you feel the fires of Hell calling for you? Why I do this, you ask? Because Angel gave me a Heavenly Commandment! Soon, I will be rewarded with my place in paradise. If you scream, I'll even consider praying for a place for you too. Come on, let me hear your fear.

  • I don't need a babysitter, I'm an all-powerful, almighty—is that chocolate? I command you give me some! ...Can I please have some?

  • [laughs] You should see the look on your face mister, you look like you're about to pee your pants! I'll give you the keys to the handcuff if you give me all your money. Yep. That's what you get for messing with The Spades. Well, technically my brother is a Spade but I'm going to join too when I'm grown up! Oi, don't laugh!

  • [monologue] So we have a sniper who shoots lasers. A support who talks to dogs. A techie who can teleport and...what is it you're going do again? Oh right! Throw us head first into trouble! [sighs] How about we cut back on the messes we get into? We've got our hands full just trying to figure out how these mutations of ours work, we don't have the capacity to be trying to save the world.

Character Profile: aged 23/24; King of Spades and a reliable and efficient leader; he used to be closer to the protagonist as kids but has distanced himself since taking on this role and would even consider her a pest; a cold, emotionless abyss with a focus on time running out

  • [monologue] Hm? What do you want? Raijun, King of Spades, what's it to you? If you're looking for someone to run an errand you're in the wrong place. [sigh] You're not the first to question the way I run things and you won't be the last. Let me make one thing clear; I am not my father, you will receive no courtesies from me for simply knowing him. I do not know you. As far as you're concerned, that means I have no use for you. Get lost, I don't have time for this.

  • [monologue] Yo. Alvah Marcello here, I understand you wanted to meet with the tenants of this residence? Do I know them? Yes. Do I want to know them? Hell. No. [sighs] Unfortunately I've been designated babysitter for a particular nuisance and frankly she'd get into more trouble if I wasn't. What? Me? [chuckles] Nice try, but I don't think you have authority to access information that's classified. Wait...she what?! [curses] Just when you think you can catch a break. Sorry to cut this short, I have to go.

  • [monologue] I'm the Jack of Spades, I'm here because I serve a purpose. I make sure those Diamond idiots don't get too cocky and keep things in check when Alvah's too busy baby sitting that pest or Rai is out on actual jobs. Why are you here? Don't tell me trash-talking is all you're good at. [sigh] Grab a bat, we're going to learn some basics. And for future reference, if I catch your ugly face trash talking Raijun or The Spades, expect a knife through your neck.

Character Profile: aged 20/21; nominated Fourth Spade by Pierce after Rai had helped her out of homelessness; indifferent to most things, even things that concern her so is confused why the protagonist plays hero; an insomniac that's either working or gaming but always tired

  • [monologue] You can call me KC, Kadence, Kay. I don't really mind. Correction; I don't really care. Yeah, Fourth Spade, but I don't know what that means. I guess Raijun trusts me? I do my best to help out where I can. He won't admit it, but you can tell he has a lot on his hands and he's trying not to let it drown him. Observant? I guess I am, I don't have anything better to do with my time so I—oh. If you'll excuse me, I've got a job to do.

Character Profile: aged 27/28; his recent promotion to Detective can be accredited to his obsession with his work; used to know and respect the previous King of Spades when he was a constable but he does not agree with breaking the law; his jokes are terrifying

  • [monologue] I'm Detective Finnian, you wanted to see me? A lead on the vigilante? My men and I have been looking for months and you mean to tell me you came across this only yesterday? If you're pulling my leg, you had better think twice, I'm currently not in the mood. I see. In that case I will look into it, thank you for your time. [sighs] Sorry, I've no time for an interview, I don't sleep as it is, the last thing I need is the media on my back too.

Vocal profile: tenor to bass range; variable tone including casual, intimidating, maniacal and playful, unrefined and rough with some profanities in his speech; light British accent is preferred but not mandatory (I'd be interested in hearing a variety of accents for this role so do experiment!)


Character Profile: the nefarious villain of the plot and the second biggest cliche; has a twisted sense of humour and dutifulness; not much is known about him, other than the fact that he seems to be able to control people somehow

All you need is to do what I say, and your place in paradise is certainly guaranteed. Wouldn't you like that? Yes, of course you would. Then what are you waiting for? Go, simpleton, wreak havoc, and let the little protagonist know I sent you.
