The Eldritch Interval: A Q&A for the Elder Gods (VAs and Artists wanted)

Project Overview

Synopsis:

The 'Eldritch Interval' is a personal project made for the purpose of providing a entertaining take on the Elder God made by H.P Lovecraft and others. It takes place in modern day but not within in the real world. This mainly takes place in varying locations from the Cthulhu mythos, with certain locations becoming more dominant in certain arcs.

More roles will be added soon.

(Also Accents are not required. Just do what you think fits.)

Requirements:

  2. 2: Have decent-ish mic quality. (E.G. little background noise, little popping, ect.)

  3. 3: Be able to hand in work on deadlines. The deadlines will be lose to begin with but once I have a upload plan then deadlines will be more reinforced.

  4. 4: Don't be afraid to have fun and mess around. Though at times things may get a little bit serious don't be afraid to enjoy yourselves and just have a good time.

  5. *: Having a discord account or making one would make communication better but is not needed.

Yog-Sothoth
closed
Unpaid
cast offsite

Yog-Sothoth is the current overseer of the eternal library. He has a little problem with alcohol, mainly liquor, and can often be bribed to do small tasks for said beverages, though it takes a lot for him to become drunk.

He has a deep voice and often is well spoken.

  • (Warmly) Good tidings! I am Yog-sothoth, the Elder God of knowledge. It is a pleasure to meat your quittance.

  • (Drunk) Look it's, hic, it's angel. How are you my dear.

Azathoth
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: Rookie actor

Azathoth is the creator of all and for a long time has been said to have been resting. This is a lie. He has just been on a very large hiatus. But, he’s back now and can’t really find anything to do anymore so just spends most of his time floating around and spending time with Pandora, his heir. 

His voice should mainly be fairly dulled with the capability to become really energetic if provided something interesting.

  • (Grandly) I am Azathoth, Creator of all, destroyer of most, and absolutely bored to tears in current times. I Great you with open arms.

  • (Bored) Well Have you been on hiatus for over a millennia? Well shut up then.

Cthulu
closed
Unpaid
cast offsite

Cthulhu is one of the more lazy and recognisable of the Elder Gods. Despite this though, in recent times his power has been on the decline, forcing him to try and obtain more followers and cultists. This often ends up in lucrative schemes to try and avoid large scale work, most of which however, only resolving in a small hand full of people actually feeding into his power.

His voice is deep and booming, demanding attention, with a sense of being a bigger deal than he actually is.

  • (Grandly) I am the great all mighty Cthulhu! The leveller of planets, destroyer of worlds and master over R'lyeh. Hear my name and bow before me.

  • (Defeated / a bit timidly) Well you don't have to rub it in. I'm getting better.

Shub-Niggurath,
closed

Role assigned to: Etain Sievers

Shub-Niggurath is the elder god of beauty and life. She is one of the most laid back and, in the eyes of the others, one of the most annoying. She has one of the more vast cults, often allowing anyone to join no matter what.

Her voice should emphasise her position over most of the other Gods. It should show higher class and be middle range.

  • (Composed) I am Shub-Niggurath, the Goddess of life and beauty.  You may know of my cult and your more than welcome to join.

  • (annoyed) I do wish you would let off about that. It was ONE time.

Nyarlathotep

Role assigned to: adamsaccount

Nyarlathotep is the Elder God of trade and business. She is one of the few Gods that can interact fully with the mortal realm, however not with her full powers. Her cult mainly consists of salesmen, most consisting of door to door salesmen. She is a slight Tom boy.

Her voice should be fairly mid range and be similar to that of a door to door salesmen.

  • (Joyfully) I'm Nyarlathotep and it's a pleasure to meat your acquaintance. Now, can I interest you this box?

  • (Smugly) Well I did specify no refunds. It's your fault for buying a obviously curse object.

The Broken God

Role assigned to: Svist

The Broken God is an enigma to most of the others fading away into obscurity many a millennia ago. They is only remembered well by Azathoth and Yog-sothoth and has little to no power at current time. They are known for being the God without a soul.

There voice should be soft but dulled from ages alone.

  • (Amused) I have no name to introduce myself by. I am just known as the Broken God and that I shall remain as.

  • (Reluctant) Well if you must know then I will tell you my tale of woe.

Yig

Unpaid
cast offsite

Yig is pretty much the Elder God of discovery. He is the embodiment of expeditions and is still discovering new items predating the Elder Gods themselves! He is often adventuring in ancient and extravagant locations, but in his down time he often spends it in his study perusing his collection and planning his next move. Unlike the others, he doesn’t have to worry too much about a cult as his power main is drawn from the spirit of adventure.

His voice should be similar to that of a cliche Victorian expoditionist, the ones with the grey beards and the tendency to say ‘pip, pip’ after every single sentence, and have a slightly nasally voice and slightly hold on to the hard Ss in his word.

He won’t be appearing early on in the series but will have a major role to play in the future of our cast.

  • (Energetically) Pip, pip my fine fellows! I am Yig the serpentine God and I will be accompanying you on this expedition of mine. Join me in my tent after this so that we can chart our course!

  • (Shocked) My word, that's... that's impossible! Yet, it is here all the same.

Palid

Role assigned to: Gentleman Fencer

Palid is Hastur’s left hand man. He does odd jobs for him and acts as the mayor of the capital of Carcosa. He often exaggerates in his lines and encompasses the drama of the yellow court.

He often demands attention, his voice often booming and roaring. A good reference would be the actors from the third season of black adder (see link).

https://youtu.be/h--HR7PWfp0?t=59

  • (Overly exaggerated) Woooeee, for I am Palid. The left hand of the almighty king in yellow and ruler of the yellow keep. Hear my name and bask in my eternal glory.

  • (Humbly) Yes, your majesty. I your humble servant, who is not fit to bask in your radiance, will do this most important task of opening the window.

Grimace

Grimace is Azathoth’s right hand man. He is fanatical to his God and nothing can change this. He has a serious personality but is often shows a more softer side when dealing with the cults. When he is with some of the other highers main cultists of this series he often can be found arguing with them about who is better.

His voice should be deep with a slight amount of grandness in his voice. He often speaks in a monotone voice, taking a softer tone when speaking to other members of the cult of Azathoth.

  • (Coldly) Indeed, I am Grimace, now what do you want?

  • (Calmly / softly) See to it that she is taken care of. She is new here so make sure that she knows where we stand.

Angel

Angel is the personal secretary to Yog-Sothoth and as such is held in high regard in his cult. She is one of the more calmer of the high cultists. She often spends most of her time making sure Yog does not A) Become drunk, or B) Disappear. She often treats Yog as a type of brother and tries to keep him out of harm's way, even though he is plenty times more powerful than her.

She should sound fairly calm and speaks with a mid range soft voice.

  • (Calmly) I am Angel and I'm the personal secretary to Yog. It is a pleasure to meet you.

  • (Frustrated) We are not in a relationship! How many times do I have to tell you Hail?

Haily

Role assigned to: Tsopaira

Haily (or just Hail for short) is the heir to the yellow courts on the off chance that Hastur somehow winds up dead or senile. She is kind hearted and energetic but can turn a bit sinister if the scenario calls for it.

She should have a high pitch energetic voice. See Elise from fire emblem fates as a reference (See link).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-pBfWCe0KU

  • (Energetically) Hello! I'm Haily, the heir to the yellow throne, but you can just call me Hail if you want. I look forward to our time together.

  • (Threateningly) I will not let you get away with this. I may still be a novice in comparison to others but I still have the kings blood in my veins.

Victor

Role assigned to: ShiftySarama

Victor is Yog-sothoth’s heir. Victor is generally quiet and often has his head in a book. He tends to only speak when spoken to and is fairly timid. Unlike most of the other heirs, he has access to high end arcane magic, resulting in to if he where to get into a fight he would win nine times out of ten.

His voice should be moderately high range, timid, and have a slight stutters, though not having it too prominent.

  • (timidly) H, Hello. I'm Victor, the Heir to Yog-Sothoth. Can I, Can I be of any assistance?

  • (Confidently) Well you asked fr I fight, and I don't plan on losing. Engarde!

Pandora

Role assigned to: Vada

Pandora is the Heir to Azathoth’s legacy. She really is only the heir out of courtesy though as Azz is the least likely to actually fall under any of the pretences of needing to pass on his lineage. Nevertheless, she has grown into a good father daughter relationship over the past couple of years.

Her voice should be mid range and speak with enthusiasm in her voice.

  • (Happily) Hello, I am Pandora, the heir to the Azathothian legacy. It is going to be a blast!

  • (Surprised) That just isn't possible... I thought that they didn't exist.

Barion

Barion is the heir to Nyarlathotep’s empire. He has excelled in Nyar’s art of persuasion but prefers trickery and sly deals to get through his trades. He more often deals in curses and soul contracts in order to grow in his own strength and just to cause general anarchy. He is one of the more chaotic of the Heirs. Him and Ruby are often found scheming with each other as to what to do next. He actually has a crush on her but hell will freeze over before he actually confesses (He can hide it really well though).

  • (Cunningly) Well hello there pal, I'm Barion, the heir to Nyarlathotep’s empire. Now then, should we get down to business?

  • (Friendly) Well, it's not all that bad, at least you still have your friend there! Aaaaannndddd there gone, wonderful.

Daliard

Unpaid
Role assigned to: DCInferno

Daliard is the heir to R’lyeh and the Heir to Cthulhu. He is often calm, in comparison to his comparison to Cuth’s more erratic nature, and often finds a more simpler solution to most problems. Whereas Cthulhu often comes up with weird and bizarre ideas he often takes a more straightforward, simpler, approach to most of, if not all, the problems he’s faced with.

His voice should be mid range and emphasise his calm and collective nature.

  • (Calmly) Well then, this is to be expected. Greetings, I am Daliard, the  heir of R'lyeh. Welcome!

  • (Humoured) Well that would be an interesting idea. A lot of theory behind it. But we could just open the door.

Ruby

Role assigned to: akp

Ruby is the heir to Shub-Niggurath. She is one of the more hands on in gathering of cults out of the heirs and as such, has a bit of divine eldritch power of her own, though not so much that she is actually a threat to the other Gods. She one of the more cunning of the heirs and as off such is one of the more tricky to deal with. She spends most of her time conspiring with Barion and also has a crush on him, but she will be damned before she tells anyone.

Her voice should be mid range with an air of confidence and welcoming cunning to it.

  • (Warmly) I am Ruby, the heir to Shub-Niggurath, and it is a pleasure to meet you.  Now then, can I care to welcome you to the fold?

  • (Playfully) Well we could do that, but it would cause absolute anarchy, so why don't we hold out on it till there is more of a crowd.

Your general cannon fodder of the Elder Gods. A dozen a dime of these make up the bulk of well… the cults.

There will be a lot of these throughout the series so there will never really be one true cultist. Who ever I cast it to will not be the only one.

  • Just say something you think will fit.

Role assigned to: KBarrCapybara

The main character art work. I should be bust images, using the technical term, or that similar to a VN. They should be expressive and semi dynamic in posing, dependant on character. You must be ok with drawing human, animal, humanoid, and creatures that are (Ironical) eldritch (E.G. A glob of spheres, a shapeless mound, a thing with lots of tentacles , ECT.)

The main video editor. They will be responsible in handling the creation and fine tuning of the video after I finish with the audio and story boarding. The main style of the videos will be similar to that of a VN with out the text box.
