The Vanishing - A Minecraft Roleplay [Closed/Discontinued]

Project Overview

What channel will this be going on?

This series will be posted on my YouTube channel, Here

About how long will this series be?

I believe that this series will last at least one season. Episode length will vary from 5-20 minutes, depending on the episode.

What is the series about?

In 1980, a small town called Northwich, it wasn't uncommon for people to vanish, in fact, it became a normality. But hidden within the shadows was a group of abnormal teens who come together, and know the vanishings were not at all normal. They end up working their hardest to figure out why this is happening, and who’s behind it all. Will they find the culprit? Or would they forever live in suspense, and fear, of who’s next?

What genre is this series?

The genre of this series is mostly horror, with a bit of romance, fantasy, and much more. This series is also PG-13, because of minor cursing, and horror themes.

What are the requirements?


  1. 1. You must have discord.

  2. 2. If you're a Voice Actor, you must have a good microphone, with little to no background noise.

  3. 3. Make sure you speak your lines, loudly, and clearly.

  4. 4. Please try to stay professional.

  5. 5. The age requirement is 13+. (This is because of the contents in the series)

Samuel Rodriguez [RECAST]
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: RichyVO

Ever since Samuel was young, he has always been fun-loving, high-spirited, and humorous. But after his parents and sister disappeared due to the Vanishings, it left him internally broken. He doesn’t ever show to other people that he is hurting. If a topic turns into something sad, he’ll immediately try to change the subject and uses humor to lighten any mood. Samuel is mentally unstable, which is something only he understands. He’s pretty good at hiding it, but the few people that he is very close to, like Luke, are able to see the instability seep through the mask he made to hide it. And this instability leaves him vulnerable to dark magic and manipulation. He is so emotionally unstable, that it gave the Shadow an easy target, a target that he could manipulate, and control. While Sam was in a terrible state of mind, the Shadow had easily slid into his life. His sadness over his losses had overcome all of his emotions, which gave the Shadow an opening to enter. Later on in his life, The Shadow even tells Sam that if he 'behaves', and cooperates he could get his mom and his sister back. With Samuel being possessed, he has no control over his actions or words. He is almost two-sided in this sense. Other people who don’t understand what Samuel is going through, will often think he is being rude on purpose. Other than his possession, he is very sarcastic, and he tends to use a lot of “80’s common phrases”. He tends to only make fun of Luke, other than that, he is a genuinely nice person to everyone else. 


He has a medium-high pitched voice.

  • (Nervous) “W-Who even is Molly? I don’t know a ‘Molly’. Luke, do you know a Molly? <Awkward Laugh>”

  • “Can someone explain to me what’s going on? <Pause> Anyone?”

  • “No duh, Everyone’s been asking the same question for, like, a kajillion years. <Pause> The council’s taking care of it anyways..”

Alana is definitely one of the more shy characters. She is extremely kind, but tends to doubt herself a lot. She has lots of potential, but her lack of self-confidence tends to be her biggest downfall. While she is very sensitive, she likes to put others before herself a lot of the time.

Her voice is soft and medium pitched.

Molly is very sassy character, and a definite diva. She gets what she wants, when she wants. She has a bad temper, but at the same time can be very compassionate. Her actions are a result of her past, which many people don’t take into account when having to deal with her. 


Her voice is higher pitched.

  • *Whining* "Come on... please? Just this one time- I won't ask you again. I promise."

  • *Complaining* "How much longer is this going to take? We've been walking around here for hours, and we haven't found a single clue."

Role assigned to: pastydrake

Alexander, or Alex, is your typical dark, or edgy character. He likes to keep to himself, but when bothered, he tends to lose his temper at anyone. He can get hot-headed at times, but on the inside he is very protective, and a real softie.

His voice is low-medium pitched.

  • "Look, I know I don't come off as the most approachable person. But seriously, there's something wrong with this town. And- if you see, or hear anything, come to me."

  • *Frustrated/Angry* "Would you just stop asking me already? I've already said too much to you. So, for the last time, I'm not answering anymore questions about it!"

  • *Annoyed* "Why don't you just step off and leave her alone already? She told you 'no'. Ever put that together in your tiny brain of yours?"

Luke Moore

Role assigned to: Andrew58627

Luke is a very secretive character. He lies about a lot of the things he does, even to his friends and family. He doesn’t like to open up about much that goes on. He only opens up to people he knows he can trust, and even though he lies, he hates it when other people lie to him, because he is actually very compassionate, and good with advice.

His voice is low-medium pitched.

  • *Calm* "I would never lie to you guys, okay?"

  • *Compassionate* "What's going on? You aren't usually like this- and don't lie to me, because I know something's bothering you."

  • *Annoyed* "Dude- just piss off already. Your apology doesn't mean jack to me. It's too late, dude."

Role assigned to: AWSMAndrew303

Mr. Barnes is very strict. He likes to have full control of what goes on in his children's lives. He likes to know where, and what they are doing at all times. He- most of the time doesn't notice that what he does, is harming his children, so he continues to be strict, and even sometimes go overboard and be abusive towards others.


Mr. Barnes has a deep, and strong voice

  • (Strictly) “Don’t raise your voice with me young lady.”

  • "I do not appreciate the attitude you are giving me right now. After everything I do for you, and this is the thanks I get?"

  • "That's it, Molly. This ends now. You're not allowed out with those scum friends of yours. They are toxic, and you are better than that. When you leave the house- you leave with an escort. And I want you back before 5'clock in the afternoon every day you go out. This is not negotiable."

Role assigned to: Kitkatgalaxy

She has a soft, medium toned voice

  • "Molly dear, will you please listen to your father."

  • "Do you need anything else dear? Something to eat? A drink?"

  • "Honey, you're father is only doing what's best for you. I think you need to control your temper around us."
