Seclusion Audio Novel [Main Antagonist]
Vaporvision for Warren Windchester - Mantis (The Main AI)
*WARNING THIS IS A COMPLICATED CHARACTER*
Before the apocalypse, Warren had a very close relationship with the main character. (Who has hallucinations.) And he was also the first person to test the prototype AI. Which means that to play the role of Warren essentially gives you three different characters to portray. Each with the same voice.
Past Warren was a loving father to his daughter, and an ingenious scientist. He cared for everyone's opinions and was never on anyone's bad side, or at least tried not to be.
Hallucination Warren is all of our main characters negative emotions talking back to him. Most any thought or idea is deliberated between hallucination Warren and our protagonist. He is most similar to an american version of Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter series.
And lastly, in the present time Warren is being controlled by our protagonists creation, Mantis. An AI who taps into human emotions and analyses all negative emotions to rid humanity of its flaws. This version of the character isn't human itself but uses Warren as a vessel in which to speak and survive. He should be near emotionless and have only negative ones if any at all.
*The Voice* Warren is in his early 50’s so he should sound matured. Something on the medium to lower end of pitch would work best
PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY FORM OF A BRITISH ACCENT
[Hallucination Warren] (Disgusted/insulted) Oh please… look at yourself. You spent the night on the floor, with nothing but a rag to keep you warm.
[Hallucination Warren] (Approving at first/then put them down) Using them for information, not an awful move... for you. Should be rather easy, that Cara gal is most likely willing to feed you any amount of knowledge you seek. Just like a mother... to a pathetic... child.
[AI Warren] (Villain monologue) Your species believes in assuming that the oppressed society of the world deserves their fate. You have such a limited outlook and are so cruel to your fellow homosapiens. The more prolific beings would rather destroy the perception of the more visionary individuals than spend time constructing a more productive frame of society.
