Harbingers Of Chaos - Wave 2 - Dark Fantasy, D&D Inspired Animated Series
Tiffany Ward for Saphra The Bear
Appearances:
Main Character: Volume 0, Books 1-5
Major Guest Character: Book 6
Role Description: Sadie is a young shapeshifting druid whose primary combat form is a massive bear. On the surface she clings to a bright, storybook optimism — she grew up in a small village, always seeing the world through a fairytale lens — but that cheerful exterior hides a deep well of grief and survivor’s guilt after her home was destroyed. Her journey is about balancing the warmth and whimsy she clings to with the raw, wild power inside her. She’s the party’s heart in many ways, but her emotions sometimes destabilize her magic, making her both powerful and vulnerable.
Personality Traits: • Gentle, hopeful, child-at-heart even in the darkest moments. • Empathic and protective — especially of the vulnerable or wounded. • Reluctantly fierce in battle; becomes almost feral when pushed too far. • Struggles with self-confidence and focus, especially as her grief grows. • Has a quiet sense of humor, sometimes a little awkward, but genuinely endearing.
Voice Notes:
Vocal Range: Mid to mid-high female; bright and expressive, with the ability to swell into a much bigger, louder presence despite her small frame.
Tone / Style: Cheerful, upbeat, and storybook-like — almost as if she’s always trying to keep the mood light. Slight southern twang in her accent, warm and endearing. In lighter moments she should sound like a Disney fairytale heroine; in darker moments her voice can break into raw ferocity or grief, showing the depth underneath.
Extras: Quick to laugh, quick to cry. Her humor should sound genuine — even when a joke doesn’t land, it should feel like she means it. Needs flexibility to swing from whimsical warmth to feral, grief-driven intensity when in bear form or crisis.

(Upbeat / Storybook optimism, joking tone, slight southern twang) “Well, isn’t that just the way? First we fight goblins, then wolves, and now… a dragon? Guess we’re just collectin’ the whole set!”
(Empathetic / Supportive, gentle warmth) “Hey, it’s alright. You don’t have to be strong all the time. If you need to cry, then cry. I’ll sit with you ‘til the sun comes back up.”
(Feral / Raw grief, voice cracking into anger, almost a roar at the end) “You took everything from me! My home, my family, my world! I won’t let you hurt anyone else—NOT EVER AGAIN!”
