  • Thank you for auditioning!

    We have come to a conclusion and we are happy to announce that we have chosen an actor for the role of Halwyn. We try to not cast before the deadline but we are quite sure in what we are looking for and would like to avoid stalling.

    For the actors that have put their time and effort into this audition: thank you so much for the interest and auditioning. We will close the call but beware, that we are always on the lookout for talent to join us. Even if this round it did not work out, there could be future opportunities.

    Have a wonderful day!

  • Another role for 1F has been added!

    We have been shifting our current cast which resulted in some space for one more female actress!

Role assigned to: Richard Gibson

Halwyn is an intense character with a negative character arc (he started from a good place and twisted due to cirumstances). 


More info will be given to successfully cast voice actors (NDA & Spoilers available).


The talent should be able to portray a twilit personality that is calm and brooding but intense and with depth, authorative, strict and serious, but also sensual and emotional when it is called for. Due to the nature of his relationship/dynamic with another character, the talent should be comfortable performing flirty/sensual and suggestive lines (there is implied explicit material but it is not described). The dynamic of the relationship is a power play, similar to rivals to lovers, and quite intense.

  • "I bloody well can. I could have had your head for what you did–insulting an Arbiter and assaulting him. I could consider it battery, I could charge you with a felony…" (he is mocking him with this part) "But today I am feeling quite generous. Look how good the king is to ungrateful folk like you."

  • (to romance interest) "Nor does it break any rules. It has simply not been defined. A delicate edge to tread on, I admit. This may be your city, but it does not protect you from my judgement should you decide to go against law or our king."

  • (breathing sounds from wrestling the man to the ground and restraining him, physical activity) "Consider yourself arrested. Do you think that just because you are not from here you are immune to Strigan law, huh? Next time you try something like this, I won’t be so gentle. No, in fact, there won’t be a “next time.” I am hereby disqualifying you from entering the city until the season is over."

  • (chiming into the conversation) "That reminds me of the time she cast runes and pretended to be able to read them… quite the efficient business model."

Eivor is the High Druid of Helvägen, a small settlement in the eastern parts of Striga. She is the friend of two other characters within the story.

More info will be given to successfully cast voice actors (NDA & Spoilers available).


For authentic portrayal, the talent should be PoC (ideally from the black community). The talent should be able to assume the role of a mature character who is wise and balanced but at the same time strict and authorative, and doesn't show emotions easily--especially not in public matters.

  • Gender: Female (she/her)

  • Lines/Appearance: Active in ACT II, potential spotlight in future adaptations.

  • (stern, subtle disappointment, bitter) "The king was unwilling to honour our agreement of independence that his father established and so I am, too, unwilling to cooperate further with a king that allows his men to enter our settlement freely just to exploit us and take advantage of our generosity."

  • (mild curiousity, direct) "We are all in union about the established rules, and thus I am wondering why it is impossible for you to follow them?"

  • (unmoved, cold) "You have betrayed my trust."
