Vera the Barbarian: Pixelated Prince Rescuer [18+]

Vera the Barbarian: Pixelated Prince Rescuer [18+]

Project Overview

NOTE: This project is 18+ for foul language and crass humor (curse words and fart jokes, basically), not for sexual themes or nudity. Because of the nature of the project, we would only like to work with adults.

Vera the Barbarian is a pixel art adventure platformer about Vera, a loudmouthed and overzealous gal who likes three things: drinking, eating, and fighting. Vera's sister Stella is about as socially impaired as she is in the opposite way--she's withdrawn and gloomy--and has a different set of three things she likes: magic, pretty boys, and hoarding things. Stella has stolen all but one of the thirty princes in the land and taken them to Mount Dreadful, her fort built in the middle of a volcano. The royal families of the land have promised Vera a hefty reward if she can get the princes back from her sister...and while it cuts into her free time, Vera can't help but think how much ale and chicken she could buy with all that money.

Please note that if you are cast, you will need to sign an NDA. 


The proposed pay for these is listed in each character's descriptions; you'll mostly be saying short phrases like "Yeah!" and "Help!" and action sounds, with the exception of Vera, who will be narrating a trailer. Payment will be AFTER lines are delivered; we plan on trying to secure funding later on to make this a bigger project than it is right now, and if that's successful, we will be back with more lines and more money. Many of the lines for auditions here are not lines that will actually be spoken, they're just to give a better feel for the character.


If you have auditioned for this on another site, there is no need to resubmit! Thank you!

Latest Updates

  • Main Characters: Cast! On to secondaries!

    Hi there, everyone! Just a quick update to say that while we have cast all of the main characters in this project, don't be discouraged by that! We have a lot of characters we didn't include in this casting call, including level bosses and recurring background characters! We're in the process of picking through auditions a third time to cast for these, and we will be in touch with quite a few of you over the coming month. Thank you for your interest, and stay updated with the project by following us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ParaOrbisStudio

  • Fun fact+please be patient!

    Hi there, back again just to say that WOW, we had 657 people audition for Vera the Barbarian! That being said, while we review the auditions we got from here, Reddit, Voice Acting Club, Voice Acting Space, and even a few Twitter ones, it will take a while for us to do callbacks and get everything cast! But since we had so many auditions, we'll also be casting for the roles that were not in this listing (there's close to about thirty roles all together, most of them extras). To keep up with development, consider following us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ParaOrbisStudio

  • Auditions Closed!

    Auditions are now closed and we are beginning the casting process! Thank you all so much! To stay up to date on development, consider following our new Twitter: https://twitter.com/ParaOrbisStudio

  • New Deadline!

    Allllll righty guys, I have both good news and possibly bad news! The good news is--over three hundred people have auditioned from here, Voice Acting Club, Voice Acting Space, and Reddit! Wow! We were definitely not expecting that, haha. The possibly bad news is...since auditions so far have exceeded our expectations so greatly, we're going to bring the deadline closer in. The new deadline is: June 12th! Two more weeks guys, thanks for all your interest and support so far!

Name: Vera
Age: 25
Personality: Obnoxious, violent, rambunctious
Voice: Tomboyish, medium-low to low pitched
Bio: Vera has no interest in anything that doesn't involve copious amounts of alcohol, food, or violence. She isn't well-liked as a person, but as a fighter, she's considered one of the best in the land. She's a fearless gal who lives a vagabond lifestyle in search of bars and monsters. In spite of her violent ways, she also has a code of honor she upholds: no fighting children, no fighting those who can't fight back, and no fighting puppies.
Pay: $250; approximately 1000 words 

  • "Some people say I came outta the womb with this sword in my hand, but that's just a rumor. I actually found the sword a few minutes later, and we've been best friends ever since."

Stella

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Melody Muze

Name: Stella
Age: 25
Personality: Quiet, awkward, needy
Voice: Quiet, medium-high to high pitched (a good reference would actually be a slightly higher pitched Raven from Teen Titans)
Bio: Stella is Vera's twin sister; the two of them actually get along pretty well in spite of their differences, but Stella was always a little more unhinged. She has a hard time grasping the phrase "socially acceptable", and while she looks very lady-like, beneath her reserved exterior is a girl who wants to keep everything she likes for herself. She's kidnapped the princes in the land for a collection of sorts, and hopes to marry them someday, but doesn't understand why in spite of taking care of their basic needs and keeping them imprisoned, they won't love her... Her fashion sense is "medieval goth".
Pay: $50, approximately 50 words

  • (muttering to herself at first, quickly turns into shouting as she gets more upset) "I don't get it...I feed them, I water them, I give them a pillow for their cages...but why won't these princes love me?!"

  • "People always ask me 'Doesn't your volcano castle get hot?', and you know what? Uh, no, it doesn't. Why? MAGIC. Duh."

  • (menacing) "Let's see how well you do against my zombie hoard..."

Role assigned to: lizzyhofe

Name: Ragladin, AKA Raggy
Age: ???, appears 18
Personality: Mischevious, chipper, bubbly
Voice: Cutesy, high pitched
Bio: An elf princess who prides herself on her appearance and her talent in druidic magic. She's actually the elf QUEEN, but likes to be referred to as a princess because it's more hip. Raggy is very used to getting her way, and doesn't worry about social intricacies, for better or worse. She also has a tendency to play practical jokes on people or trick people into saying dumb things (like the old ICUP trick). Tends to stretch her words in a sing-song fashion.
Pay: $50, approximately 50 words

  • "Weeeeell, let's not worry about how old I am for right now. Just know that I'm young and hip and ready to be worshipped!"

  • "Oh, please. They'll be fiiiiine without me. I have a tree clone taking care of things for me, and all I do most of the time is smile and wave."

  • "Careful now! You wouldn't want to hurt royalty, would you?"

Unpaid

Name: Danillianus, AKA Dani
Age: 22
Personality: Cheerful, optimistic, always ready to help
Voice: High pitched, cutesy
Bio: Danillianus is a pixie who has been assisting Vera for years; he's actually in love with her and praises her constantly, but she thinks that's just how all pixies are since they're so small, assuming they need to grovel for protection. He acts as her guide, her inventory manager, and her messenger, as he is gifted with the ability to make things bigger and smaller, teleport, and just has innate knowledge of where things are and how many things work. Vera was under the impression that Dani was a woman because he had long hair that covered up all of his face and body.
Pay: $75, approximately 100 words

  • "Great thinking, Vera! You're so smart! And strong! And also beautiful!"

  • "You mean...after all these years of friendship...you never realized I was a man...? Did you just think all pixies were women?!"

  • "Wow, look at all those zombies! They look so...generic."

Pay: $50, approximately 50 words

  •  "She's crazy! She has them all locked up in these weird cages and she keeps reading these awful romance novels out loud to them..."

  • "Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees the giant lava monster."

  • (relieved, a little out of breath) "Oh jeez...thank you so much. I would've been a goner without you."
