So, my name is Anikan, though my formal user is AnikanDarkness, and I am a teen writer. I'm only sixteen at the moment, but for the past eight years I've wanted to become an author. To be able to convey my imagination, ideas and stories through words, visuals, and to share it all with the world. I want to make my stories come to life and eventually publish them in the future. My dream is to become an author, and publish at least one of my books. So for now, I am here.
Currently I am writing two different series. The Omega Event, a post apocalyptic book series following a group of survivors traversing across the wasteland trying to survive a mutant plague, and then another series called DragonLight Online, a more anime styled series that follows Aldren and his group of friends in an online MMORPG, where they go on a quest to become the sole Champion of the Game, fighting the five bosses hidden across the map and conquering Dominus Tower. This casting call is for the former, and will follow that group of survivors as they adventure across the country, fighting off the infected creatures lurking within and battling with groups of Insane Medical Patients, Terrorist Cells hidden within the Capital, and a race of Superhumans lead by a deadly sniper with a vendetta against said group of survivors. This series consists of eight books, with 4.5 completed at this time, and several currently in the post editing process.
The first book in the series follows eight high school seniors, Anikan, their socially awkward leader, Andrew, the silent emo, Coty, the redneck troubled kid, Maddison "Space" Allen, the advanced student, Spencer, the gamer, Maddeline, the mother of the group, and Isrreal "Hamster" Torres, a drug dealer. The eight of them discover a warning on Spencer's dark web forum he frequents, a warning that tells of the upcoming WW3, and the nuclear fallout that will follow soon after. They have a week to escape the country, or else certain doom will befall them along with the millions of people in their country. The eight originally ignore the warning, but after more warnings and clues arrive, they set off across the country to escape on a transport in Florida. On their way, they meet up with several other lucky survivors, along with an array of police officers that want to arrest them, and a mutant virus plaguing the country and driving it into the ground. The first book consists of 40 chapters, and along the first books and the rest that follow, some characters will die.
Each book is from 3rd person, meaning it will switch POV's from person to person depending on who the story needs to follow, and each chapter can range from 3k words to 7k words, sometimes more and sometimes less. This is a long term project, and auditioning to voice a main character means you have to be committed to the project. Do not audition if you can't stick around. If you are casted for a role, you will receive a message and be given a link to the discord where the project is being developed. This project shares the same discord server as the DragonLight Online project.
Requirements
--------------------------------
1. Have a discord account, or be willing to make one.
2. Have decent mic quality. You will probably not be accepted if you have background noise or static, or the quality is just overall bad.
3. Be able to cooperate and turn in voice lines within a two week period. I generally give two weeks for people to turn in their lines unless it is a special case, and may extend said period because of so.
4. Most importantly, be able to make a comittment. In my DragonLight project, I have had several people either drop off the end of the earth with no warning, and I do not want to have to deal with that here. So only if you are in a position to be apart of the project for a long time, then audition.
