Cindy is an ambiguous and mysterious character. For the most part, she seems very child-like and bratty. She's eager to follow through with "the plan", and won't fall off track. She easily follows orders and although she is very child-like, she isn't someone to mess with. Her range is similar to Aquamarine from Steven Universe, and she has a ghastly stutter and hesitation to her words. (( Note: Accent NOT necessary, but a nice additive. ))
(mesmerized) "gosh....she's a pretty one....like a porcelain doll...can't wait to play with you."
(mildly annoyed) "This wasn't a part of the plan...."
(Sincere, aggressively blunt) "You are our asset. Our future. Whether you like it or not, they've abandoned you but we've got open arms."
Ms. Duran is a minor character to be seen once at a pivotal moment in the pilot. She is an over-protective and over-bearing mother figure who easily worries and stresses out. It is important she expresses a lot of emotion! She has a somewhat nasally mom voice, however, this role is *very* open to interpretation.
(Exaggerated, worried) " *Whaaat??* Henry, get down from there this instant! Lord knows who's rotten fingers have touched that. It could be... (hushed)-infected..."
(Silly, giggly) "Henry you're a pain...You know what I'll do with you? I'll preheat you in the oven like a small snack for the turkey, and...oh wait...oh crap...I left the oven on! Oh lord, this house is a rental!"
(Awkward, pleading) " *awkward laugh...* W-Well, maybe we can...work out an arrangement, and nobody has to...be overdramatic about it...Right, right, Henry...?"
Chief is a very blocky and slightly aggressive character. He is a literal block-head who always seems to have an ulterior motive. Working under his division can prove to be somewhat impossible most days. He speaks gruffy and mumbly, similar to Coach from 6teen. His anger has is subtly cartoony.
(agitated, blunt, unintentionally loud) "Get *OVER* it! <incoherent mumbling> There will be more opportunities down the road!"
(reading to himself, from slow/quiet realization to loud anxiety) "<incoherent mumbling> to be paid January eighteenth....eighteenth...eighteenth....what day is it? You're lying. You're lying, I don't believe you. *THE 23RD???*"
(Hushed, slightly guilty) "Stop. Keep this on the low...nobody needs to know about this. It'll only cause more damage. This place? It has a reputation to uphold..."
Junior, more known as Ossy by the others, is a lost spirit stuck to the same realm as Cindy. They both share the desired plan and will do anything to fulfill it. Junior is a small cutesy teddy-bear toy who cares more about helping Cindy than anything. His voice type is similar to Amumu from LoL with a bit of a higher pitch.
(Kind of annoyed, sighing) " <sigh...> Seems like we lost the objective again...we should get back to big-bear, or we'll really be in trouble..."
(sincere, goofy) "Friends forever...Even if we don't...achieve the 'objective'...we can still be here, together...big-bear can't hold us back for an eternity."
(pre-recorded line, like a toy with a string that's pulled) "I'm Ossy Osirus! I'll be your sidekick 'till the end of times."
Big-Bear is a very eery and seemingly dangerous character. His appearance and voice contradict each other creating a very alarming and off-putting character. Similar to Junior, Big-Bear is a teddy-bear toy that follows the duo (Junior and Cindy), making sure they stick to the plan. He's a rather large bear with a very menacing yet slightly charming appearance. His voice sounds like a distorted Mickey Mouse, charming and child-like, luring those weak enough into his trap. He talks like an enthusiastic mentor/teacher, although his roots of deceit and darkness shine through. NOTE: GENDER *NOT* IMPORTANT!
(strangely chuckle-y) " <insert-bizzare-somewhat-menacing-laugh>, don'tcha wanna know...? There are many pieces here that you couldn't understand yet...good thing I'm here to help you. Would you like me to help you, <insert-random-name>...?"
(Sad, disappointed, happy-facade cracking) "Hm...that's not what I remember telling you to do...did you fail the objective on purpose...? Don't you remember our talk about...punishment? I don't want to have to punish you, <insert-random-name>..."
(Pleased, deceitful) "<insert-bizzare-somewhat-menaching-laugh>...thank you, <insert-random-name>. This is *exactly* what I asked for. You are such a good partner...Partners in crime, right?"
Freda Jones is a confident and capable African American woman, supervisor of Dyson Fletcher at his job. It doesn't take much for her fun and quirky personality to shine, causing anyone in the area to want to be her friend. She's a natural-born leader. She's pretty chill and lenient, and the two are basically best friends. Freda has a very controlled yet open, friendly, and charming voice.
(Giggly, excited) "Haha, yeah! Promotion, promotion! Looks like I beat you to it, Fletcher..."
(Astonished) "She's...that girl is your friend? You really do have some weird people around you..."
(Caring, somewhat scholarly) "Definitely, you got it...I normally don't do this, but...come around here whenever and I'll give you some free tutoring."
Angelique is a ukranian doctor who holds health and justice above all else. She's gentle and sweet-hearted, despite her sometimes seemingly cold exterior saying otherwise. When she grows determined, there is no stopping her. Things around her job are shrouded in a mystery she's determined to solve. Angelique's voice is very soft and soothing. She's got a range similar to Gwen from TDI, Bee from Bee and PuppyCat. (( Note: The voices referenced are used only as examples of what I perceive her voice to be. Interpretations are welcome. The accent is NOT necessary, but a nice additive if one could. ))
(Determined, yet somewhat hushed.) "This is not the way to go, chief. This will only serve to prove those rumours!"
(Questioning, somewhat hopeless.) "These files...all of our work was a lie. A cover-up."
(Soothing, light and assuring.) "This will only hurt for a second....ok? Why don't you count to ten for me?"
Dyson is a skilled social butterfly who can come off as spontaneous and even a bit flirty to others. He's pretty laid back and composed and generally, nothing really over-excites him. Dyson's voice is similar to Fuyuhiko from Danganronpa and Jonesy from 6teen. He's got confidence and a sliver of flamboyance that he isn't afraid to show. Sometimes, he sings his words (without noticing). (( Note: Accent NOT necessary, but a nice additive. ))
(Sing-Songy) "Welcome to Astro's! We've got a menu that's outta this world..."
(Chill) "So that's....you've got a medium fry and a large soda. You've got it down, dude."
(In awe) "Woahh...this is somethin' else."
Chia is an eccentric character who uses her innate storytelling abilities to trick people into believing the many creatures of her imagination. She gets bored easily and due to her lack of friends, she takes to fantasizing and exaggerating mundane things. Although she is very eccentric in her storytelling, her voice is usually quite docile. She has a nasally voice type similar to Velma from Mystery Inc, and a lisp similar to Beth from TDI. (( Note: The characters referenced are simply examples of how I envision her voice to sound, but interpretations are always welcome. ))
(Exaggerated) " *gasp!* You probably ran into a Wendicorn...."
(Defensive, somewhat aggressive and emotional.) "An active imagination isn't a bad thing at my age."
(Sincere, somewhat detached.) "Wait...please...lets be friends. I don't have many of those."
The shadow monster is a cryptic seemingly demonic figure that plagues the spirit realm with his terrifying darkness and darklings. Given his menacing appearance and abilities, most if not all cower at the mention of his name, the sound of his soft whisper. His voice is subtle, yet encaptures pure dark power. He is charming and manipulative.
(Sarcastically sympathetic, creeping closer) "You're running away from me...Is that your natural instinct? Were you born to waste away like the dozens of corpses decorating this darkened oasis? No...you're special. I remember you."
(Manipulating, condescending) "Don't you...trust me? I haven't told you a single lie since we've met...although you've whispered to me plenty."
*Improvize a scary one-liner!*
Darklings are captured and corrupted souls inhibiting and feeding the darkness the shadow monster channels. They are all wicked, greedy, and terrifying creatures. They speak in whispered hushes, slightly shakey and devious as if each and everything they say is a secret meant to be kept. No preferred voice type! Multiple VA's will be selected! Get creative :D
"Come play with us...come play in the darkness...we've missed you since you left us..."
"Another, and another, and another, and another! They never stop coming...more to the tea party..."
"There's always a faint buzzing sound here...it grows louder, and louder, until it- POPS! Pop, pop, pop....*wicked laughter!*"
