PROJECT N: "Mediator In Chains" One-Shot Audiobook Collection (Fantasy/Action/Fiction)
SushiVibes for Mason "Son" Terrick
Technically classifying as an amateur mercenary, Son is allowed to hunt for bounties under the name of his guild. Regardless of their lack of preparation and ability to do so, Son insists that he and his younger sister Maira travel to the heart of Qorus to take down the Jackal, one of the world’s most wanted criminals with certainly the highest bounty. Never once experiencing the bustling neon-drenched streets of the world’s capital, they are taken aback and entranced by it all. Moments after their arrival, it is made abundantly clear that this years Qorus Battle Circuit is soon to commence with places to enter running scarce. As a last minute decision, Son is convinced that this would be a much better way for earning money. Locating the Jackal is no easy feat let alone taking them down, so they thought this was a much more realistic and efficient alternative. Just like that, their main mission was now an afterthought with the entirety of their focus shifting toward the Battle Circuit in order to earn as much money as they can while potentially finding the opportunity to unsheathe Son’s sword that has been chained shut. As they reach further into the tournament, the opponents get radically stronger. Most is not as it seems as fighters expose abilities that cannot be explained. Vi has now been made a reality to the siblings.
About the character's voice:
Son is hot-headed, brash and rarely plays by the rules. He has just turned 18 which means that he is now officially a (rookie) mercenary... which also means that he thinks his shit doesn't stink. Regardless, he cares deeply about his younger sister and has a softer spot which seldom surfaces. He has a heart of gold and a selfless instinct. He may push your buttons, but he's a friend you'd be grateful to have. We're looking for that bad boy mid to low-mid range.
(Cocky and confrontational) "Ya know, you talk an awful lot of smack for someone with no social skills... Fine, if you think you're hot shit, come at me!"
(Vexed and venting) "See? It says 'the small fishing village in the bay opposite the docks'. And waddya know? a small fishing village opposite the docks, and I don't see any 'champions' anywhere, just a bunch of sour-faced old crags with barnacles growing on their chins. AND it reeks of seaweed here! You know I can't stand that stuff."
(Heart-to-heart around a campfire) "... They're dead. I saw it happen. Besides, even if they did survive, they wouldn't have lasted too long. Maira doesn't know and she doesn't have to. It gives her a reason to keep moving forward. To keep fighting. Just like... what she gives me."

I can definitely bring the voice down! I look forward to working with you!
Man, questions for you: how do you get such a clear sound without static or buzzing in the background? For the life of me, I can't seem to get the same buzzing with my interface (used to have an old one which was better, but I want to see if I can use this one...)
Hey man, thanks for the compliment/question! So white noise/static/buzz usually comes from a couple of things so here's my two cents on it. Usually, the common issue is gain control and recording space. Fuzz could be the amalgamation of various background entities in your recording room such as a fan or a computer or even the outside. Best thing to do in this case is just sticking your mic in a closet that has a lot of clothes for the sound to be absorbed by the clothes; it will also make your recordings sound a lot better! The second culprit could be the gain in your interface. When you have your headphones plugged in and you are live monitoring your voice when you speak into the mic, you want to adjust your gain so you can't hear your background. If you turn your gain way up, you'll be able to hear that white noise and if you turn it down, you won't hear anything. You want to find that happy medium of being able to record without peaking and not being able to hear any white noise! Last thing I can recommend is using Audacity's noise reduction effect. Its super simple to learn and there are tons of youtube tutorials on it. Hope this helped!
Thanks, man! Definitely solid advice. Was immediately effective upon application. Unfortunately, the mixer I had still gave me a lot of static, so I ended up borrowing a friend's.
Dang sorry to hear that. Interfaces can definitely shit the bed after some use. My friend only had his focusrite for a year and it already started acting funky. Nice of your friend to let you snag his!
