The Circus of Chaos (TADC AU)

Project Overview

Hello Hello!

This is a casting call for The Prelude of "The Circus of Chaos: a TADC x Purge AU". This project is part animatic/visual novel and part audio drama.

Medium

The Circus of Chaos is an alternate universe/human AU to the popular animated series "The Amazing Digital Circus." This story aims to be told as an audio drama with the exception of The Prelude, which will be done as an animatic/visual novel style.

The series will mainly rely on voice acting to tell the story. We are only doing the Prelude for now, and maybe the rest of the story down the road.

Story

Set during the eleventh year of The Purge, The Ring Master is contacted by a potential new ally to seek revenge on those who killed the Queen. However, in searching for one answer, he encounters some that connect to questions that had once lay forgotten. Are those answers worth the headache, heartbreak, and bloodshed?

  • The characters personalities tend to differ in and out of the Purge Masks. Within each description, you'll see a IN (how they act in mask) and an OUT (how they act as people). These are added to give a better look at each of the characters.

Caine/The Ring Master
open
Unpaid

Caine is a man in his late twenties or early thirties. As a public figure, he has an image to uphold for his sake and the sake of his family. As The Ring Master, his voice has a certain edge to it - almost like he enjoys toying with his victims.
  • IN THE MASK - As the leader of The Circus, he holds himself with an air of showmanship and coldness. This persona is only seen by those he captures and torments. He uses this mask as an escape, as way to fulfill his dreams of protecting those who are taken advantage of.
  • OUT OF THE MASK - As himself, Caine is an anxious ball of nerves. Raised as a people pleaser and "the fun guy," he is haunted by these titles. As the eldest son of the First Family, he constantly has eyes on him - whether it be the paparazzi or his father's own PI.

  • (upset) Out of all the things I've done for you, you repay me like this. I've given you every single opportunity to play god, to play judge jury and executioner, and *now* is the moment you choose to jump ship?

  • (angry) No! No you don't understand! Do you know how hard it has been to be accepted into a family that's never wanted me? To be seen as a pity case by the entire nation? I never asked for this!

  • (normal but awkward) So...what do you do for fun? I mean, outside of the twelve hours of legalized crime. (pause) I like beekeeping. A weird hobby I know, but it's soothing.

Role assigned to: Basalt

  • IN THE MASK - As he no longer participates, only rumors are left about his time on the streets. Many say that he is a merciless man, slaughtering those who either wronged him or those under his wing. They say that he was one of the top players in the manipulation game.
  • OUT OF THE MASK - As himself, Reggie is a sweet gentleman. He may not make the most sense when he speaks but it is still advice taken to the heart. Acting as the voice of reason for many of his protegees, Reggie is credited for turning the lives of so many people into something worth living
