Black Market Brawl: Prelude - Tabula Rasa
John Paquin for Narrator
You are not quite a character, but you play an important role in this story nevertheless. You are the one establishing the tone, the one who informs others of the people involved and what makes them tick. Though the narrator's lines tend to be centered around describing characters, it is this way for good reason.
WARNING: You will have a LOT of lines, most of them coming in paragraphs' worth. This first episode especially has a narration section that spans across 2 pages.
True power is when one walks like a place has no effect on them. Their steps are not measured according to how safe the land around them seems, but by how quickly their thoughts come to them. Their glances are not prompted by the ostentation of architecture, but by wonder and curiosity in its history and functions. Their movements are not influenced by which people they are in the presence of, but by which situation they find people in. Their hesitations are not related to their urge to remind what they have brought to others, but to their impulse to discover what they CAN bring, for good or not.
One look at the walk of Chante Ferrandin, and all those observing can tell: here is a young man of true power.
The nature of Chante’s work means there is much he knows, even of things he dearly wishes he could unlearn. The Diabology under his arm is not something he can claim intimacy with, but it is familiar nonetheless… in a distinctly uncomfortable manner.
Thank you so much for trying out! Every audition is appreciated! Nice voice of gravitas you got going there!
