"Wherever You Are" is an animated series about four troubled children, Felix, Alana, Evan, and Asher, escaping from home because of their abusive parents. They start living on the streets and actually really enjoy it because they meet their closest friends and form a friend group: Felix, Alana, Evan, Asher, Ava, Max, Jenna, and Jack. Together, they commit crimes and have fun. Until they commit a crime and run into the forest to save themselves from the police. The only problem? Asher runs the opposite direction from the rest of his group and now he can't find them. This show is incredibly emotional, has a bit of undercover romance in it, and is full of drama. This is a long form project!

Alyia is a 16-year-old female. She is an additional character, but very important to the plot. She has a rather deep voice, the kind where you don't know if she's teasing you or not. She is a serious character who swears she doesn't find Felix’s jokes funny, but secretly, she giggles. She meets the friend group in the first episode when they are running away from the police. She helps them run away, which the friend group appreciates and gives her protection from other dangerous groups. She doesn’t want to get involved with them but does give her phone number to them and tells them to call her anytime they're in trouble.
“Hey! Watch it! You almost stepped on me, you jerk!”
“Where are we even going? Why’d you even pull me into this, hello!?”
“I really need to go but call me anytime you guys get in trouble. This was fun.”
This is a lead role.
Felix is a 14 year old with a fairly deep voice. He is naughty, bratty and he has a very big ego. He will do anything for his siblings, and he is the first born. He is a main character and will appear in many episodes (maybe all of them). He is by far the most street-smart from his siblings which helps get them live in the streets until they found their friend group. He is part of the friend group.
“Oh wow Alana you cooked? (Teases) Looks very appetizing.”
"Why do you keep remembering?"
“Can’t you see I'm trying? (Sobs) I'm actually trying and you're just standing around doing nothing. Nothing! I thought you were supposed to be the responsible one Alana. (Voice breaks) Don’t you feel a bit of empathy? Did you forget what we are here for? Don’t you know I’ve almost gone to jail for this group? (Yells) None of you appreciate it and I'm sick of it! Either do something or get out of my face.”
This is a lead role.
Asher is 12 years old. He is twins with Evan but they are polar opposites. Asher (known as Ash) is very athletic and is very strong (he usually shows his strength to his older sister, Alana). Asher loves hanging out with Felix, and takes after Felix, except Asher is nice to people he meets. He’s the kid other parents compare their kids to. He is full of spirit, and genuinely the sweetest most confident kid out of the siblings. He has a medium ranged voice (maybe just a bit higher). He is a part of the friend group.
“(Laughing) You lost! Good game though! (grunts while getting up from the floor) Hey Felix wait up! (whispers) Wanna play a prank on Alana and get Evan in on it?
“Evan! Come with me! Wanna explore the forest? (Giggles) Don't be a scaredy-cat come on! Race you there! (Sighs) Three… two… one! ”
"(Crying) Where even am I? (Screams) Felix! Alana! Who are you? (Terrified, shaking voice) What are you doing? No! No! Step back I'm dangerous!
This is a important side character.
Jenna is one of the most important side characters. She is 14 years old and best friends with Alana (👀) She has a fairly normal-ranged voice, and rarely ever screams. Her older sibling is Max. She also protects Alana from Felixs’ rough love. She is part of the friend group.
“Felix! Stop! (sighs) You really don’t know when to stop, do you? Look at what you did! Now Alana’s crying! Look,(whispers) I know you love her but you have got to stop being so rough with her. “
“Alana i-it wasn’t like that (stutters) I-I swear she came out of nowhere. Wait! Wait please! (screams)”
"(Laughing then sighs) You're really funny Alana. Hey let me help you get up, it's a long journey."
This role is a important side character.
Max supports the role of his younger sister Jenna. He is 15 but turns 16 years old in the show. He has a deep voice, and rarely ever screams but when he does his screams are dangerous. He also curses under his breath a lot. He is part of the friendgroup.
“Jenna. I need to ask. Why are you so close with Alana? It's like you're dating her at this point. (annoyed) Wait. Are you? (sarcastic realization) Oh god are you?! No wonder! (Giggles) Wait, why'd you panic so much?”
“Relax, I was just joking. Go play with Alana its fucking obvious you want to. Yo Felix and Jack let's steal this motherfucker's car.”
“Jenna you need to shut the fuck up! We're all trying to find him and I can’t focus because you're crying. (breaks down) Just please.”
This role is a important side character.
Ava loves drama and she is jealous of Alana’s relationship/friendship with Jenna because she thinks she deserves to be in Alana’s place. Ava is 14 years old, and has a medium pitched voice and she can sing. She is very talkative but since Alana and Jenna have been getting closer it seems like Ava is getting silent to observe and see if she can take Alana’s place. She isn’t bad all of the time, only a little bit where jealousy takes over between Jenna and Alana’s friends. She is part of the friend group.
“Hey Alana! (Fake concern) Heard you guys from the bushes, are you doing okay? No worries you always have me! Here's my advice, you should leave her, she clearly had a plan and went with it! (fake pity) I'm terribly sorry. Here, have some water.”
"Felix you're so stupid how can you not read a map? (giggling) Give me that!"
"Hey! Hey! It's okay I promise we'll find him! (sobs) We'll find him!"
This role is a important side character.
Jack has been living in the streets more than any person in the friend group. He is 14 and has a bit of a deep voice. Felix and Jack are best buds. Jack trusts Felix with his life. Jack is generally a nice guy when he needs to be but if someone that isn’t part of his friend group messes with anyone that is, he will beat them up or possibly do worse.
“(Screaming) Hey hey! We’ll find him, we'll find him! (sobbing) We will, we will! Call the cops anyone! (voice breaks) Please… anyone… I don’t care if it gets me put in jail! Just ask them for help. They're our last hope.”
“Asher! Felix and I are handling grown-up stuff so can you please go bother Alana or Evan? Actually, bother both! It’s double the fun (snickering).”
“Hey Felix. (teases) You see that guy flexing his chain? He’s gonna get it stolen from him in like 5 minutes.”
These are important side characters.
Jane and Steven are abusive parents who mistreat their children Asher, Felix, Alana and Evan for fun. They blame their children for ruining their lives. They usually go to parties together and come back home drunk with no clue on how to feed themselves let alone their children. Jane’s voice is very strict-like, like she demands power in every room she’s in. She is 43. Steven has a very deep voice, and he is 45. They are both unemployed but get money from doing illegal things at parties like selling drugs.
STEVEN’S SCRIPT: “(screaming at Felix while being drunk) Get the fuck out of my house now! God dammit I don't even know why I had useless fucking kids man. Ey dont give me that fucking attitude ill beat the shit out of you! (light headed still drunk) Damn.”
JANE'S SCRIPT: “(Drunk) Where are those fuckers? I told them the dishes needed to be washed as soon as I came back.”
BOTH: 'Why do you keep remembering?"
