Keeper of Pepo - CASTING CALL WEEK FOUR (Ben, Tyrant, Xethereal, and Extras)
Witchy Washy for Principal Benjamin
Principal Benjamin is an oddity to both science and psychology. Once a normal household ferret, various experiments left him with the intelligence comparable to the scientists who studied him. He went on to become a legal citizen and earn his Masters degree. Today, he is the Principal at the Galaxus Academy of Defenders.
Benjamin has the wants and desires that come with any ferret, and consistently talks about things that normal ferrets would talk about if they were as intelligent as he. He also loves to provide help to his students in any way he can, but cannot focus for very long on small talk. He's fidgety and will always have at least twenty things to talk about at any given period of time. His voice claim, fittingly, is Sean McLoughlin, aka Jacksepticeye https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMtQG8AkbDY .
Things to know when auditioning for this character:
- This character is frequently used to add comedic value, so a sense of humor is definitely required for this.
- Be expressive, because this character is essentially an embodiment of ADHD.
- The Irish accent doesn't have to be very thick, but please try your hardest to mimic Jacksepticeye's speech patterns or the tone of his voice.
[Over loudspeaker] Good evening students! This is your Principal with a small announcement! Reminder that although this year's Graduation Ceremony is quickly approaching, that is no excuse to start doing involuntary pullups on my travel tubes. You may instead use the designated training areas located throughout the school in order to train for this event. Thank you, and have a safe evening!
[Speaking to Tyrant] Tyrant, please add a reminder to my notebook to ask the janitor for his lemon cake recipe! Those little cakes he leaves in the staff urinals are absolutely intoxicating! [Tyrant says to Ben that they are, in fact, urinal cakes, and that eating them is poisonous. Ben responds back, realizing his mistake.] Oh... They aren't actual cakes? In that case, please change that reminder. Change it to "get stomach pumped at the veterinary clinic."
[Ad-lib something here!]
