Repose | Destiny 2 Machinima |

Repose | Destiny 2 Machinima |

Project Overview

From the Holy Shores of Miagesh, and the tunnels of Mars Site IV, to the violent forests of Keva. The story in Repose spans many worlds, characters, and events. Battles with light and dark. Familial trials. Relationships. Sibling control. Religion and Spirituality. Many themes and ideas will be explored. Some serious, others joyful and pure. Like the name suggests peace and tranquility are at the center of some of these characters. Some motives will be understandable. Others, a bit harder to sympathize with. I hope you grow to be invested in this story, as I have worked on it.

The project is a completely original concept. It will use Destiny 2 as its form for its story, however, it IS NOT set in the Destiny universe. No previous canonical knowledge is necessary from the actors. Worlds, beliefs, and characters were formed for this story. Repose is being established as something I can continually come back to and delve into further.

Roles labeled **Apocalypse appearance** (Drafting / Soon to begin filming)

- Apocalypse will serve as a prologue of the events that occur in Flight 2. The flight mainly focuses on a different slew of characters with ulterior motives. The basic plot is The Myriad now holds full control of the city of Keva. Keva's Fallen, a band of citizens are being hunted by The Myriad and there psychotic leader, Loomis Conway. Apocalypse tells the story of the massacre that caused the overthrowing of the city and the many lives that were displaced because of it.

The project will contain violence and language. 


Roles labeled **Chapter 3 appearance** (In production)

- Logline - "Paths cross. Strangers take precedence. Tensions rise. The exile has begun. Will of the Gods or the Humans?"

Roles labeled "Chapter 4 appearance" (Drafting / Soon to begin filming)

LOGISTICS


    • The project (s) are UNPAID. I do this out of a love for filmmaking and storytelling. Your hard work and dedication are greatly appreciated.


    • The world is always evolving. Story's will be told in the past and present, often building on pre-established notions/ideas. The character's project will be listed in the description of their role. I am casting in advance on many of the small "tales", which take place in the universe. There may be a gap between now and when your respective project releases. There is a roadmap for these stories, all will happen in due time. 


    • The preferred mode of communication will be Discord. Please have an account set up, as this is where the script, character designs, music playlists, and cast read-throughs will occur. My email will be provided to those cast. Other arrangements can be made, though Discord will be prioritized. A server is already set up.


    • Emails will need to be used to access the Google doc's housing the scripts.


    • I am understanding and a bit lax on deadlines. The production process is long as I write, record, edit, mix everything between class and work. However, communication is huge for me. Upon casting, if communication is not made within two days, the role will be recast. I just ask for excellent communication.


    • There are many worlds and characters with funky names. The pronunciation will be provided here and in the script(s).


    • Many of these characters (unless otherwise stated) are not animated and whimsical. Please read the descriptions carefully. Don't hesitate to reach out to me with questions or concerns. However, you can be expressive and inventive in your approach to a character, while playing off their descriptions. 


    • All characters will have a line to "Introduce yourself" at the top. This is solely meant for me to hear your normal voice. Say a few things before diving in!


    • Any of the "extras" will likely be utilized throughout other projects. There is a possibility of picking up as a returning character.


    • You are welcome to audition for any character(s) you would like. I will try and be as descriptive as possible on their bios.


    • I will be speaking with all who are cast over Discord about your character and their place in the world. As the story is evolving, certain ideas, themes, and characters will change.


    • The main arc of the project is split into 3 "Flights." Each flight is set up, though not limited to, 4 chapters. Other projects such as; Demur, Sublime, etc, take place in separate parts of the overall timeline.

Role assigned to: Ratsby

(pronounced YARL -TRO)

Jarl is the husband of Vita. The two are recent citizens of Keva and like many of the Keva's Fallen, have been displaced by The Myriad's attack. Jarl and Vita quickly escape the plaza's chaos, swimming across the lake and into the woods. Though they were the first to flee, they are also the first found by The Myriad's search parties. Jarl's death is cold and remorseless, as it happens right in front of Vita. This is one of the events that kick off Flight 2.

Jarl's main joy in life is the fact that he and Vita are soon to be parents. Finding a home and community for their family is of the utmost importance. Jarl is always seeking to make Vita and their baby, Yula, comfortable.

Maria is much like her older brother, Morgan. Aggressive, but a bit more sly and smart than he. She would rather watch and analyze before she acts. She often ribs on Morgan. Though the two are related, one wouldn't tell by how they interact.

**Apocalypse/Flight 2 appearance**

  • Introduce yourself!

    Morgan, over here! There's some trying to run. Grab your gun!

  • (whispered) He really believes what he's saying. Look at him. I don't like that rat Clay and the Church...but Loomis feels some type of way about this.

  • Don't touch her, Morgan! Who knows how long she's been there!

Terrthrillen

Unpaid
Role assigned to: ShipRecks

Terrthrillen is an old Geshian oracle/healer. He frequently communes with what's left of the physical bodies of the Gods. Mainly spending time with Siciel and learning from her. He is constantly seeing visions of events to come and memories of the past. He is working with Siciel to bring balance back to Miagesh and to find the whereabouts of Nifa's Epparia.

Akin to Gandalf or a respectable, noble oracle/prophet in fantasy.

He often speaks fast and quick, but also holds this fragility to him.

**Chapter 3 appearance**

  • Introduce yourself!

    (pronounced SIS - E - L) Siciel, I saw him. He is rich with vigor.

  • There are things even the Gods do not understand. Of Miagesh. Of Serilda.

    I do not fear Kyen. He holds no power over me. His lie will cease. Soon, the Geshians will meet their true creator.

    (pronounced ME - UH - GESH), (pronounced KEY - YEN)

  • (Spoken over a funeral for a friend.) We gather here, for those who have passed, and to the light extinguished here today. The Tranquil Vale welcomes you. The ancestors of the past prepare for your arrival; Child of Carmith, Child of the Blessed Mother.

    (Muttering) She has come. She will come. She is there. The Blessed Mother will soon be near.

Vita Trogh

(pronounced VEE - TUH, TRO)

Vita, like many of the people in Keva's Fallen, is looking for a sense of community. She is good friends with Joanna. She welcomes Gwinnett warmly into their group. She is reserved -  often a bit shy, though her greatest joy in life is her pregnancy with her soon to be daughter, Yula. 

One project opens with a tense, heavy scene where she and her husband Jarl are cornered by The Myriad. Violence ensues, Vita is left to pick up the pieces. The scene requires a guttural, almost animalistic stricken cry.

Warning - This character's demise is set. Her end will mean something, but the way it is presented involves suicide. Please be aware of this when auditioning.

**Apocalypse/Flight 2 appearance**

  • Introduce yourself!

    (Scattered)Joanna really has been sweet to me. Everyone here has! But, I don't want to y--you know...be any dead weight.

    (Someone has asked about her child. She hasn't gotten to talk much about her. She is happy.) Yula, was the name Jarl and I agreed on. It was an easy choice...Yula was Jarl's grandmother's name. He loved her.

  • Are the stories of Miagesh really true? 

    (beat)

    Oh please tell me! I loved hearing about them from my mom.

  • [Evoke an immense amount of anguish. **Story context her husband, Jarl, has just been murdered in front of her.** Her crying out is almost animalistic.]
