The Strange Brigade (FIRST CASTING CALL)
Project Overview
The Strange Brigade is an upcoming audio drama based on one of my old Dungeons and Dragon campaigns. it follows a rag tag group of adventurers as they get up to all kinds of high fantasy shenanigans.
PLEASE NOTE: This is an ongoing project and there will be multiple casting calls for more episodes. If you audition for a LEAD, please be sure you are willing to commit to the role for an extended period. This project is unpaid and I know that such a commitment for no money is a burden.
Speaking of unpaid, our roles are CURRENTLY unpaid, but should this project do well upon release, we may be able to renegotiate for recurring roles. Voice actors deserve to be paid after all. I'm just broke.
PLEASE only audition if you have a proper mic set up. crackly mics and too much background noise will not be considered.
Please read your audition lines in ABC format, with 2-3 unique takes.
In your audition description, please provide your email and Discord username, so that I may contact you.
I look forward to any and all submissions :)

Lorelei is a young woman, half-elven, in her early twenties; longe blonde hair, green eyes. She's brash and impetuous, but loves her companions fiercely. She also has a secret that very few know of.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a long term commitment. With a lot of lines. The role is currently unpaid, but should the project take off, we can discuss payment for future episodes. For now, you will receive credit, and full promotion on social media.

Well you are particularly crotchety, even for a human.
[petulantly] That guard started it!
Heinrich, think of how much gold must be involved. This is a contract of some sort from the king of Krakenstaad.
LEAD: PLEASE BE READY TO COMMIT FOR THE LENGTH OF THE SERIES
Strennan Lightstring is an Elven Bard with a bombastic demeanour to say the least! a masterful musician, his personality around others is baudy and bold, but in reality, it is a mask to hide his constant anxiety and insecurity. He hides this beneath a cocky attitude and a love of monologues. I hear his voice as being mid-range, but very smooth and chocolate-y
THIS CHARACTER HAS LOTS OF DIALOGUE THAT ARE PARAGRAPHS AT A TIME. PLEASE BE ABLE TO MONOLOGUE IN CHARACTER.

Hail to all patrons of this fine establishment! It is this morning that I bid you all a warm greeting and announce that Strennan Lightstring has arrived to amuse and delight you!
Pardon me good merchant. It would seem that I am horribly lost in the beautiful streets of your fair city. I come to you now in dire need -nay- borderline peril! I am set to perform at a recently opened drinking establishment; the Final Yak! But I have no idea even where I currently stand in relation to this place. Prithee sir, please point me in the direction of said tavern, for not only do I stand to lose precious, precious coin, I also find myself terribly terribly parched, so much that I may very well perish!
[Ragged breathing] ONE ROOM PLEASE!

Oy, alright alright, let’s not get too crazy now, I’ll let her go, you just stay back….
Alright mate, let’s have that pouch o coins on yer hip. Don’t make any sudden movements.
The Abbot is the leader of the Church of Leoun, the goddess of knowledge, in the great city of Krakenstaad. An older man, he leads the church and is also involved in other, shady dealings in the city.
Being an older gentleman, he will need a voice to reflect that. He is gentle and warm-voiced. He does his best to be kind to all, even if he has ties to darker elements in the city.

It seems as though this may take some time. Let us adjourn to my office.
I’m supposing that you’re here to ask about the New God?
[after being asked what he knows about this new god] [Sipping tea] Precious little, I’m afraid. Not even enough to know that claims are genuine. I have our order seeking information throughout the city. There are whispers that the new god is already gaining followers.
Sven is a guard in the Great City of Krakenstaad. He also has decided to moonlight as a city guide while not on duty

Alright Mr. Mackelroy, the temple of Leoun is not far now. It’s in the Worship District, naturally. Just mind the crowds now.
Right you are, Mr. Mackelroy.
Of course sir, apologies. I’ve never been a city guide before, you simply handed me a lot of gold to show you to the temple.
MINOR ROLE: Mother Agnes is the oldest and most senior of the nuns at the Temple of Leoun in Krakenstaad. She is a polite but stern woman. She answers only to the Abbott.

The Abbott mentioned you would be coming.
He’s a tad indisposed at the moment, but if you’re willing to wait, I’m sure he’d be happy to see you.
[chuckles] Our goddess is one of knowledge. Our library is the grandest in the city.
