medieval battle story maybe?
Colm Ryan for Gamaliel
Gamaliel is an eccentric, enigmatic, and valiant old man. Gamaliel does not fight savagely and without a plan--the complete opposite, actually. He conquers and defeats his enemies through intuitive and creative ways. The skinny, yet powerful gaffer can achieve much in the blink of an eye, so one must be alert when facing him.
He wears a hippie headband, dark emerald-green velvet robes, his waist tightened by a beige rope. He sometimes wears ties to hold up his beard and hair. Underneath his robe, he wears a long brown tunic. His hair and beard are light-grey, a bit long, and quite wavy. I'm still in between making him elven or human, but that won't affect his voice, so don't worry about it.
As for his powers, he can do a lot-- but if you want or need sound effects for your audition, you can use any on YouTube.

For his voice, you can decide to either give him a Scottish, Irish, or English accent. Try to sound like John Butler, Author of 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment' and 'Mystic Approaches.' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZXhPmHPoNo (skip to 5:02))
1. (concerned) "No, no, no--this isn't right. Byulmiir (be-yool-meer-) had not obtained thy crystal of Caelum before he met Sisera; he would find it after he'd defeated Gargotross. And thus-
(cut off by the sound of scratches )
what was that?"
2. "Who am I? I am the 48th descendant of the Ceasarius bloodline, wielder of the Luce Stellarum, guardian of the eldest woods, Sorcerer from the dark ages, etcetera etcetera--in short, I've been awake for seven nights in a row and hiked 50 mountains to get here, would you PLEASE get me a pint of ale?"
3. (anger) "Mali Mortui. You shall torture the innocent Kingdom of Ekedal no more. Your treason ends here. Bestiae aestibus devotionem ventis vidunt, intexunt, ET FINIS HAEC CALAMITAS!"

4. (Any improv, pretend that he's currently in the middle ages, so no pop culture references/anything out of that era.)
Hello! Thank you so much for your audition. I loved your impersonation of Gamaliel, especially when you voiced him doing the magic. However, I think that you were a bit too aggressive at certain parts. While Gamaliel is valiant and prosperous, he has quite a delicate voice. I don't know if you saw, but I posted a link to a video of John Butler, who I'm basing Gamaliel's voice off. This audition is a great start, but I would love it if you attempted a more delicate tone for this voice. Try a more intense tone instead of growing louder when it comes to the part where he has to chant the spell. I hope that's okay, and thank you again for auditioning!
Understood, thank you for the response, I will take another attempt at the voice tomorrow attempting a softer tone.
Wonderful! Thanks for responding, and have a nice evening :)
Hey, so not gonna lie, re-hearing this-- the part where you go "SORCERER" is perfect. I kind of like this voice better.
