RWBY Volume 4 Abridged

RWBY Volume 4 Abridged

Project Overview


(If you're the kind of person skips over the description, PLEASE read the few dot points I've listed, it basically summarises everything.)


-MORE CHARACTERS ARE BEING ADDED.  Until the volume is over, I'll be adding more and more characters as new people appear in the show.


-The main characters will be casted on January 10.  This audition page will remain open till the end of the volume, incase new characters appear in the last few episodes.


-If you don't watch RWBY, please do not audition.


-Good mic quality is a must.


-All art in this (including the character photos, the project photo, and the profile picture) was done by Koyorin!


-Enjoy yourself!



Hey everyone! Since RWBY Volume 4 has begun, I'd like to be able to contribute to the fandom and make something for fans to enjoy.  I've decided to make a series :)  Lot's of voices are needed, and more will be added since the entire volume hasn't been posted yet.  Since this will be an abridged series, please, PLEASE keep in mind that there will be swearing and sexual jokes and so on.  Also, since there is many fight scenes in RWBY, you need to be able to do efforts (grunts, screams, and sounds of pain.)


Thank you!


Also, if you haven't seen RWBY volume 4, I'll make a little list of episodes here!

-Episode 1

-Episode 2

-Episode 3

-Episode 4

-Episode 5

-Episode 6

-Episode 7

Latest Updates

  • Casting has started!

    Howdy doo, I'd like to let everyone know that casting has started!

    I went ahead and choose voices for Ruby, Weiss and Blake (actually blake was self-casted, because i'm that type of person.) As well as Jaune, Nora, Ren, Salem, Emerald, Mercury, Watts, Tyrian and Hazel.  Like I said I would.

    However, I'm a bit unsure about who I'd like to cast for Yang.  So I'm leaving her role open for a few days incase anyone wants to leap in last minute and wow me.

    I also decided to cast Whitley and Raven because I was really happy with the auditions.


    While I spend the next few days trying to finish some scripts, and choose more people, feel free to reaudition! Although I do already have people in mind for most of the remaining roles!


    Thanks :)


  • One day to go!

    Hey everyone!

    I'm just making a short update to let everyone know that a new role has been added, and that there's one day left till the main roles are cast!

    I will begin casting at 12am, Eastern Standard Time on the 10th.  I will be casting: team RWBY, team JNR, Salem, Emerald & Mercury, Watts, Tyrian and Hazel.

    The rest will remain open, but I could cast at any time.  Although the new role will not be cast for several days, or until I recieve a suitable audition.


    Speaking about the new role, Oscar has been added.  I won't be able to tell until the end of the volume if he'll end up having a big role or not.. But currently, he just pops up every now and again.  So keep in mind he's a bit of a minor role at the moment.


    In case anyone is curious, the new character from episode 9 (SPOILERS INCOMING), Ilia, the chameleon girl, will most likely not be added to this page.  Since it seems she'll have a very small role, she'll be voiced by a member of the cast or myself.


    Thank you for supporting the project!

  • 7 NEW ROLES! (Also Qrow and Raven now have lines! Yay!)

    Howdy hey to everyone following the project!

    Since I'm currently on an overseas trip (holy shit london is cold), I haven't had much time to add characters or review auditions.  But I sat down today and finished up writing lines and descriptions, and added 9 new characters! Which are: Sun, Ozpin, QROW (Yes, about time, I know), Raven, Taiyang, Ironwood, Jacques, as well as two minor roles; Oobleck and Port.  

    Minor roles are the characters that appear only once, or barely at all (Such as the Higanbana waitness or the captain of the ship Blake was on.)

    Most of these will either be voiced by myself or a member of the cast, but some that have been bigger characters in previous volumes will have proper auditions.


    At the moment, RT has said we're about half way through the volume, so while the main cast will be chosen in January, I can't be sure if I'll actually be able to start producing videos until the volume ends.  So we'll just have to wait and see.


    Thanks everyone! 

  • Yang and Blake Lines Added!

    Hey everyone! Thank you for all the amazing auditions!

    Since Episode 3 was released, I've decided to add lines for Blake and Yang.

    Just thought I'd post that information in an update, since I know some people have been waiting to audition for them.

    Good luck to anyone who does!

At this point, Blake is trying to hard to be an edgy, mysterious, tsundere.  She's acting like she's cool and chill, but she jumps every time someone startles her even slightly.  Blake is a bit quiet, so she might no have many lines.


  • [ 1 ] Maybe it's just... better, for some people to be alone. 


    [ 2 ] You're not supposed to be here!

  • [ 3 ] You wouldn't understand.  I'm trying to be edgy and mysterious.  The tsundere, lone wolf type, you know?


    [ 4 ] Stop calling him a rapscallion! Stop calling him a degenerate! He's a person!

Miniature rich white fuck boy.  He looks and acts like Draco malfoy, and is probably the kind of kid you'd see in a 'rich kids throwing tantrums compliation'.  He's an annoying prepubecent lemur.


  • [ 1 ] I'll have you know, I didn't stop growing while you were away at beacon.

  • [ 3 ] That's true, but you can't deny her resolve.

Jaune is going to be pretty similar to his original character.  He's going to be a bit oblivious and stupid, but otherwise the same.  I'm probably going to stick a bit to past the few volumes and make him a bit of dweeb, who tries but just isn't as strong or smart as his teammates.


  • [ 1 ] I'm tired of being the lovable idiot, stuck in the tree while his friends fight for their lives! Don't you understand? If I can't do this on my own... then what good am I?


    [ 2 ] Oh yeah! I've been camping.  Actually, I was a camp counsellor.  (haha, i'm so funny ;)

  • [ 3 ] It doesn't care about it's body... But it's protecting it's face... Guys! I have a plan! We hit it... harder!


    [ 4 ] It's not like he's only a jerk to me, he's a jerk to everyone.

James Ironwood is the head of Atlas's military, he's a tough guy with good intentions.  I'd like him to have a low and gruff voice, preferably close to the original.


  • [ 1 ] The people of Vale needed someone to protect them, someone who would act. When they look to the sky and see my fleet, they feel safe, and our enemies will feel our strength.

  • [ 2 ] Fuck you! She’s my daughter now!

If anyone's seen that popular Dangan Ronpa abridged series, just think of celeste.  Generally very calm and casual, and then suddenly starts saying horrifying and violent things.  Also, heelys.


  • [ 1 ] For as long as humanity can recall walking on the surface of Remnant, so do they remember this wicked force.


    [ 2 ] Watts, leave dear Cinder alone.  She's worked hard and is now our fall maiden.  And if you cannot shut your mouth I will have to tear off your testicles with my bare hands and choke you with them.

  • [ 3 ] Yes, Watts, I do need to wear my heelys.  They give me a mysterious and threatening aura.


    [ 4 ] How does it feel? Knowing that all of your time and effort has been for nothing? That your guardians have failed you? That everything you've built will be torn down before your very eyes?

Since she's the main character, Ruby will be mostly the same as she is in the original series.  She'll have the same bright and high pitched voice.  Also, she's probably going to have the most lines, so please be prepared to receive some long scripts.


  • [ 1 ] Justice will be swift! Justice will be painful! It will be... delicious!


    [ 2 ] GUYS WOULD YOU FUCKING HELP ME OUT HERE!

  • [ 3 ] Don't you see Yang? Of course I want to be normal, a normal girl with normal knees.  But I'm the main character, I'm going to outshine every other character, I'm destined to stand out,  and I'm going to turn out to be the special chosen one godess warrior or something like that.


    [ 4 ] Sorry it took so long. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the elevator on the way up here...It wasn't me.

Weiss is going to be the same stuck-up whining rich kid, also, the bitchy ice queen, just to a higher degree.  I'd like her to sound kind of grand, maybe British.  Just make her sound like she regards herself as some sort of royalty, basically.

  • [ 1 ] She... She says... 'Watts shut the fuck up before I reach over the table and set your dick on fire.'


    [ 2 ] Mercury, I will seriously pay you to shut up.

Asshole, everyone hates him.  He thinks he's a lot more suave than he actually is.  He speaks in a very formal and refined way and is arrogant and cruel even to his allies.

    [ 2 ] Well Cinder, that's not our fucking problem, is it?

Ah yes! The character everyone has been waiting for! I can't even count the amount of times I've been asked about when Qrow would be added.  So, here ya go.  He's basically going to be the same in this series, although a whole lot drunker.


  • [ 1 ] You know what you really are? A bunch of sellouts, just like your boss.


    [ 2 ] Communication is a two way street pal! You see this...that's the 'SEND' button!

  • [ 3 ] I'm inventing a new drinking game.  Everytime I'm sad, I take a shot.

So, as far as Jacques Schnee goes, I've got two ideas, and anyone who wants to audition can go with either.  I'd either like him to sound like the Lorax (here's a reference), or just a snobbish guy that's somewhat like the original voice actor.  Honestly, just have fun with this one.


(Or.. *cough* you could uh.. do a donald trump impersonation.  *cough*)


  • [ 1 ] I’m not talking about the good of my company; I’m talking about the future of Atlas, our entire Kingdom!

Oscar is just a young farm boy who somehow ended up with Professor Ozpin in his head.  We don't know much about him, or how big of a role he'll play, but I'm looking for a voice somewhat similar to the original.

This is Remnant's Worst Mom Of The Year award winner and the edgelord everyone aspires to be.  Raven is supposably a badass, and has a very scewed concept of family.  Do your best to sound like the original, or just use a low, edgy voice.


  • [ 1 ] I told you Beacon would fall and it did. I told you Ozpin would fail and he has.

    [ 2 ] Finally, she speaks! Nearly two days and you gave me nothing but small talk and weird looks! Yeah, like that.

Since Ozpin has only had one line in the volume so far, I can't be sure how big of role he's going to have.  But if he does show up, we're going to need a voice actor for him.  I'd like him to be an awful, irresponsible teacher, something like Dumbledore in floccinaucinihilip's Harry Potter comics (http://floccinaucinihilipilificationa.tumblr.com/)

For his voice, I'd like him to sound either like the original, or just throw any random voice at me (surprise me!)


  • [ 1 ] But perhaps victory is in the simpler things that you've long forgotten, things that require a smaller, more honest soul.

  • [ 2 ] I may be your headmaster, but I am also a Huntsman; and it is my sworn duty to protect this world from the forces that conspire against it.

  • [ 3 ] I am now responsible for all of these children.  *pause* Time to launch them into the monster infested forest.

    [ 2 ] Ren senpai, will you ever notice me?
