Passage of the Wanderer: A Firnuvan Tale
Mairi Chanel for Kerian
A wild and ambitious engineer who constantly fantasizes about leaving her home of Quimaf and pursuing far greater things than their pointless tower to the sky. She and the other members of Quimaf are almost all part of the Jemku, {Tengu/Avian} bird-like humanoids who lost their ability to fly in a mythic legend passed on within their people. While many Jemku are very studious and patient, Kerian is often brash and quick to become bored, wanting to see more immediate results of her own work and in this effort, often rushes her own designs leading to mishaps and malfunctions; and above all, a nasty reputation among her fellows. She ignores and derides them however as foolish and jade. Possesses a wily Scottish-like accent.
“Eh… Eeeeeeehhh, you uh… can’t make an omelette without crackin’a couple a’ eggs! This is a natural part of the process, I wasn’t even close to done! Just wanted… ta see how the ignition shaft would pressurize, aye.”
“I am a doer! I want people ta know the name’a’Kerian Willow and think ‘that’s someone who changed Qumak permanently.’ So no! I’m not a team player. I admit that! I will make things happen on ma own, and none’a’you are holdin’ me back!”
“It is… a Jemku much like maself who cost our people their ability ta fly. Sometimes that keeps me up at night. Makes me question whether the others are right. But I can’t ‘elp who I am. I can’t sit back and wait fer others to bring about change. My mind tells me, I have ta be the one to do it.”
Accidentally uploaded the one I saved with a whole bunch of empty audio on the end - my bad! If it's a problem, I can resubmit it. (:
I love Scottish accents, this sounded fucking Sexellent, very well, Done, Take all my Money lol
Excellent! It would be my pleasure to extend you a Callback for the part of the Kerian. You can find a bit more info on this in the last couple updates. In preparing for the additional material, just really work that mad attitude of Kerian's and keep killing it.
Wow, thank you so much!! I will keep an eye out for your further direction on the next round of auditioning. I really enjoyed recording this audition, so I can't wait to see the material we get to work with for the callbacks!
I'm sorry but this is not a Scottish accent, it's quite similar to Irish though!
You're right! The audition description specified "Scottish-like", so with limited time to record, I made the choice to focus on what I thought was a good sound and characterization for Kerian, rather than a perfect accent. My intention is to do a more in-depth study of the dialect for further material for this character! c:
