Cast Selected!
Hello, everyone! The cast for Ratchet and Clank: Galactic Peril has been selected. Thank you so much to everyone who auditioned. So many of them sounded great. Wishing you all well!
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Greetings, Cadet! My name is Corpernius Qwark. Leader- uh, former leader of the Galactic Rangers. What you see here is a Casting Call for a Ratchet and Clank Audio Drama! A fan-made sequel to the 2016 Holo-Film based on my life. Your help is needed and below are more details as to what this project holds.
AUDITIONING INFO:
Below are a wide range of characters just waiting for a talented VA, (that's you), to bring them to life! There are no strict requirements for auditioning. So long as your microphone is decent and there's little background noise, then feel free to give it a shot! Included in each character bio is a voice reference, but it's important to emphasize that I am not looking for 1:1 accurate performances. The references are just there to provide general direction. Feel free to make the character your own!
EXTRA DETAILS:
This Audio Drama will be divided into an episodic series resulting in a total of eight episodes that will be uploaded on YouTube. Deadlines will be weekly and prominent characters will have a good amount of lines, so make sure that before auditioning, you'll have the time to healthily take part in production. Of course, everyone participating will receive full credit in both the video and the description, and a link to the handle of your choice will be provided.
HAVE FUN!:
Now that we got all the boring talk out of the way, remember to have fun! I can't wait to work with you all, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! I will filter them all through my agent. Good luck out there, Rangers!
...
Okay, I'm done. Geez, couldn't Wyman have condensed it a little? That was WAY too wordy. Yeah, I used speech-to-text, no way I was typing all of that. Hahahaha, of course I remembered to turn it off! Wait, did I turn it off? Uh oh. JEFF, HOW DO I- GREAT, IT'S IN ALL CAPS NOW! THERE'S TOO MANY BUTTONS! UGH, THIS IS COMING OUT OF MY PAYCHECK...

Don't let his appearance fool you. This Lombax is trouble! Sure, he may have saved the galaxy, or whatever, but this unlikely hero is reckless. I know, an irresponsible hero? Just imagine...

Oh, come on! Switch off your nerd circuits and have some fun! Look, we'll go just long enough to pick up the O2 mask.
Do you notice anything unusual about Captain Qwark?
A hero doesn't have to do big things. Only the right ones.
This story features both Ratchet and Clank! Ooooooooh, so that explains the title. Anyway, what shorty here lacks in size he makes up for in spirit! That and he's a massive nerd.

Blaming yourself and taking responsibility are two separate things.
Excuse me captain, but we have more pressing issues. We urgently need your assistance.
Ratchet? Are you...all right?
Oh no, there's two of them now?! Uh, I mean... Rivet here is a Lombax on a mission. Nothing will get in the way of this unstoppable heroine.

Your Nefarious— he looks a lot like mine. Evil like him, too. And that lombax... I know it might sound crazy, but... he might be my dimensional counterpart...
Ready To kick some robobutt!
Get to safety, Kit! I'll cover you!
Beware of Kit, the Killer Warbot!! Wait, did I read that properly? Killer Warbo- her? Seriously? If you say so...

I'm not going to let you hurt anyone else.
You do not understand. You are not safe around me. I was built to be a weapon. To keep the Emperor's galaxy "secure".
You're not alone, Rivet.
To those auditioning, brace yourself. Taking on the role of the galaxy's greatest hero is a task not to be taken lightly. But so long as you're strong, brave, and good-looking, then you may very well have what it takes!

With great power comes great responsibility...
You are a wizard, Harry.
What do you mean these aren't my lines?!
King of the nerd herd turned mad scientist. Keep your eye out for Nefarious! His evil knows no bounds. (Quick tip - maybe... don't audition if you're not comfortable with being loud)

Where was I? Ah yes... ANNIHILATING YOU!!!
Look at you. Free for the first time in years - INCHES FROM YOUR DESTINY and what do you do? Run right back to playing BACKPACK to a squishy. You're nothing but a PATHETIC SIDEKICK.
LAAAAAAWWWWWWRRRRRREEEEENNNNCCCCCEEEEE!
The awesome Uncle Ratchet never knew he needed - which is saying something. Uncles are usually awful! Also, side note, his OmniWrech is so much cooler! I'd totally voice him but my agent advised against doing so. (Something something about lack of range).

You hear that? In a few moments, we will be able to prevent the greatest injustice in Lombax history!
You're a Lombax, Ratchet. You have a destiny, a legacy to uphold.
Take care of yourself, Ratchet.
Brave leader of the Lombaxes and Ratchet's long lost father. Fans everywhere have been anticipating this moment for years! Surely some random fan-made Audio Drama will quell their thirst.
Major Character
My son... so we finally meet.
Sacrifices had to be made.
What do you want to be? A savior? Or a monster? Only you can decide your destiny.
The 'shoot first and ask questions later when she's good and ready' type. Cora knows her way around a gun. Now let's see if she knows her way around being a leader. Also, did I mention she likes to shoot? She likes to shoot.
Major Character

I like to shoot.
Got a long line of citations here. Possession of an illegal gravity repulsor? Seriously?
Whatever the case, we can't give up. A whole galaxy is depending on us!
The brutiest brute out there. Brax is the muscle of the Rangers and is well-equipped in handling combat! Not much else though...
Minor Character
Voice Reference: https://youtu.be/yd7NGSyNntA?si=gM_5Dow3tRpWTZFB
Uuuuugh... does anyone else feel like we should've shot something by now?
BRAX TO THE MAX!
Less talking, more smashing!
The nerdiest nerd out there. Elaris provides tactical support to the Rangers and nerds out with some nerdy schematics dipped in nerd sauce. NERD. We'd laugh about how much of a nerd she was for hours! Well, I was laughing, she would just kinda stand there... with an annoyed look on her face. I'm sure she was laughing on the inside.

How does it feel to lose? (laughs) Going to cry to your Mommy? *Wait, are you actually crying...?*
Before we go barging in, can we take five seconds to come up with a plan?
All these budget cuts drove the last guy nuts... but don't worry, that won't happen to me! (Unconvincing laugh)
A surrogate father figure to our main protagonist. Basically Ratchet's Yondu, but instead of a cool telekinetic arrow, he fixes things... and yells a lot. Yeah, the flying arrow is definitely cooler.

No leaving the garage until you help fix Mr. Micron's ship. Now, get on that bolt crank!
Hey, sometimes I have my moments.
I'm proud of you, Ratchet.
A corporate sleezbag running a death tournament in the Shadow Sector! The living embodiment of greed! Think Elon Musk but less evil.

You are now far out of the reach of hope. There will be no rescues, no pardons, and no possibility of escape.
Would you like to buy an Ace Hardlight video game? How about an Ace Hardlight lunch box, action figure, movie rights, collectible trading cards? Ace Hardlight is the perfectly manufactured celebrity straight from the presses of the Gleeman Vox media empire.
Time for the games to begin!
Ace used to be a beloved hero. That was before he sold out to a corporate entity with the goal of increasing his popularity! What kind of monster could ever do such a thing? Oh...uh...I mean...what kind of unattractive monster could ever do such a thing?

This is as far as you go, Lombax. I am the star around here.
This is it rodent. I just wish it wasn't over so fast. Well, just try and make it interesting while it lasts, will you?
Don't let Vox do to you what he did to me... you are the hero now.
Doctor Nefarious' reluctant assistant. Emphasis on reluctant. Seriously, how does he put up with that guy?

You put the wit in twit, sir.
Even drooling imbeciles can achieve success in certain fields, sir. Mad science, for example.
Oh, goody. I get to reanimate something.
A despicable space pirate who has given the Rangers and me some trouble. But did you know I stopped him from rendering the Adria population color-blind twice?

Just try and stop me, Galactic Losers!
The universe looks at you and sees a hero. But do you know what I see? A coward. Someone who lost the guts to find his race.
I've never lost a fight.
