The Best Year

The Best Year

Project Overview

What if there was a pill that could make you have the best year of your life? No shots, no very bad symptoms, and no side effects besides the occasional headache, abdominal pain, unnatural abilities, and death. Wait, death?! Well, the pill doesn't cause death so the doctors say, someTHING does. The thing finds you in exactly a year from when you take the first pill.

Follow along with Charlie and the rest of the gang to see what the best year of their lives looks like, who knows, they may even become heroes. 

Unfortunately ages 14+


Discord is not needed but a form of communication besides here would be very nice!

This will probably be posted on youtube, apple music, Spotify, and anywhere else a podcast can be posted! There will not be any payment unless we achieve money from these websites. Who knows, we may even open a Patreon :D

Latest Updates

  • Update #2

    Hello all!! THANK YOU for taking the time to audition for my project. Seriously thank you. It was so so so SO hard to pick who should be which character. If you did not get a character, NOT TO WORRY! There are going to be a few smaller but still as important characters for you to voice. I know quite a few directors say this but since I have heard your voice you are automatically put to the top of the list for these smaller characters. I will be reaching out to a few of you who have been dismissed for a specific character very soon with very good news! I can NOT wait to work with you all!

  • New Characters!

    Hello all! I have added a few new characters, the three creature brothers. They are all in one voice acting thing so submit as many auditions as you like! These again are creatures so have fun with the voices.

The Doctor

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: TimHarrod

The Doctor, a very androgynous character as well much like Charlie. The Doctor is the reason that anyone would get into this mess. They are very nice and calm but will not hesitate to sacrifice a patient to get the groundbreaking discovery. 

Even though the Doctor is an unnamed character as of now, they still have an extremely important part in this story and will occur multiple times.

Language:
  • english
  • You will find yourself having animal-like instincts as a withdrawal effect within 48 hours. You would not stop at anything to get one of those pills. But, that will not happen since this pill will grant you the best days of your life.

  • That is incredibly reasonable, everyone who comes to this place is as weary as you so you are not alone. You're wondering about the science behind our company, huh? Well, our scientists have spent years coming up with the perfect little pill for your dreams to come true. And no, it is not a hallucination, it even tastes pleasant! Give it a try!

  • Well, the side effects are as follows. Shortness of breath, the gain of unnatural abilities, headaches, abdomen pain, and death.

Role assigned to: Jimmy May

Charlie is the amazing gender-neutral main character! They are down on their life and use this pill as a gateway to hopefully make things better. Charlie is just so fucking tired. 

(Gender-neutral as in anyone can voice them, not an androgynous voice!)

Language:
  • english
  • I saw on TV something about selling a good life and I came to check it out. Is this the place?

  • Oh. Well, this place seems, in the most non-discriminatory, nicest way, pretty sketchy... I mean I had to walk a quarter of a mile to get here! That is pretty insane. I guess I am just wondering what the science behind this whole "Best year of my life" thing is.

  • DO NOT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN! I JUST SWALLOWED A BLUEBERRY PIE PILL THAT TASTES TOO DAMN GOOD TO BE TRUE. Doc, give it to me straight. What's gonna happen to me?

The Salesperson

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: Aki

The Salesperson is very energetic and bubbly if not quite blind to social cues. They are the apprentice to the Doctor and lure people into the clinic to let them take the pill.

Despite them being unnamed they are also very important to the story! Their voice can also be any gender and cadence.

Language:
  • english
  • Every person who has done it has had the time of their life!

  • Ohhhhh as in THE Smoplaffes? What's a millionaires child doing in a place like this?

  • So if you'd sit down in this chair. Awesome, now I am going to place these things on your forehead, they are going to be cold but not uncomfortable.

Role assigned to: mazikeen

This here is Parker Maycel the (eventual) best friend of Charlie. Coming from a large family, Parker goes to the clinic to get the "Best Year of their Live" to hopefully help their family survive. Luckily Charlie and Parker just so happen to go to the clinic on the same day which makes their paths cross. 

Just like my other characters, Parker can be voiced by anyone and is a primary character. All of my characters are gender-neutral. 

Language:
  • english
  • Uh... No... I got recommended by a friend. Some fucking friend eh?

  • Did you just-? Fucking hell these people are oblivious as fuck huh?

  • UH TOVIA! THERE IS LIGHT COMING YOUR HANDSSS

Echo

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: JMBCHIEF

Due to the usage of the pills, some people gain unnatural abilities. Echo is one of those people. Not a lot is known about Echo besides that they were born blind but after swallowing the pills had cat-like reflexes and a keen eye without being able to see. Echo is the villain of this story.

Echo can be voiced by anyone of any gender. 

Language:
  • english
  • Your mind is no longer your own, any fool can see this!

  • Do you think that this is right? That this is correct? This fucking city built up around me while I was on the ground dying. That is the truth. People die.

  • Hello Charlie~ How have you been doing on this extravagant evening?

Role assigned to: Beth Lindly

Marlow has taken the pill for around three months now so they have knowledge and information about what happens. They are cocky and independent but very cheerful and bold. Since Marlow is three months in, they have developed unnatural abilities already, turning their eyes a dusty red which allows them to alter and view different timelines.


Role status: Important side character

  • english
  • I have a moral code, but I haven't figured out how to read it yet

  • You're paying a small price compared with what she's going through

Tovia Brepon

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: Madi

This here is Tovia Brepon, they are very calm and monotone. They are also very blunt but try to buffer their bluntness (It doesn't work often). They can be voiced by people of all genders.


Brepon has been with the clinic for four months and has attained the ability to manipulate light. 


This is a secondary character that will still be very relevant to the plot!

Language:
  • english
  • You are so stupid..... uh ly smart

  • Yes, you dumbass. I can control light. See that puppy over there? Uh yeah well now you don't because I made it invisible.

Icus, Micus, and Licus

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: Mihai Matei Nitro77 hasselhurf

Echo is really not good at names, hence why all of his minions have rhyming names. He found these talking creatures as he was figuring out his newfound powers Icus is the main henchman while his two younger brothers are under him. The personality of these creatures will be chosen by those who are cast. 

Make sure to have tons of fun with these voices because these creatures are not human!! Characters of these three have already been produced but I could not fit all three of them here, so here is a little dude. If you want to see them individually, message me!

These are secondary characters and will have a lot of quips and funny jokes!

  • We thought we knew exactly what would happen!!! It just so happened to not go that way...

  • "I was on a date with this dude and something in his beard moved!" "YOURE NOT SUPPOSED TO GO ON DATES DUMBASS"

  • "It will happen in three... two... one... one and a half... two... three... four.."

Tal Giao

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: Avi Williams

Tal Giao, the smartest (but most stupid) and most charming in the class... as long as they keep their animal features at bay. After around 3 and a half months Tal was rudely informed about a tail that appeared out of seemingly nowhere (they put it together after the freaking out stopped)

Tal can be voiced by anyone and is a secondary character!

Language:
  • english
  • AHHH DO I HAVE CLAWS NOW OMG OMG- Heh I'm just messing with you bro.

  • Uhhh maybe its towards the high school? Oh, its the opposite direction.... I knew that

  • We should clone Hitler, make him good, and make him join bts!

Deka Palione

Deferred: Profit Share
Role assigned to: Cee VA

Deka is a regular person who just so happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Echo abducted them but after a long chat they found out that they are similar (NOT STOCKHOLM SYNDROME) and so Deka becomes their civilian lookout and personal assistant.

If you sense a trend here that is correct! Deka can be voiced by anyone and is in between a secondary and tertiary character. 

Language:
  • english
  • You and I aren't so different... What if we team up? Supervillain and... regular... villain.

  • Roads are clear Echo, all we need now is bait.

  • Oh! Uhm, nothing to see here! I am just a regular student going to regular school, heh...
