[18+ ONLY] Melody of Shadows: A Hazbin Hotel Fan Series - Valentino
Suchydamimus for Valentino
Valentino is a powerful and charismatic Overlord in Hell and a member of the Vees, deeply tied to the adult entertainment industry and built around image, influence, and control. Outwardly, he presents himself as confident, seductive, and larger-than-life, while also being a bit of a diva that thrives on attention, aesthetics, and being seen as untouchable.
Beneath the glamorous exterior, however, he is volatile, possessive, and highly manipulative. Valentino uses charm and performance as tools to control others, easily shifting from flirtatious allure to explosive anger when crossed. His tendency for flair isn't just for show—they reinforce his need to dominate a room emotionally and socially, demanding admiration while punishing disrespect.
He is as theatrical as he is dangerous: equal parts performer and predator, with a personality that can pivot instantly from dazzling confidence to ruthless intimidation.
While we're looking for someone who can match the general tone of Joel Perez's performance, we're not seeking a perfect impression. We're looking for someone who can embody Valentino's character. His charm is just as important as his intimidation, and the ability to transition between the two convincingly is essential.

“Yeah so like… We are kind of a huge deal. Like, you know how they always said that hell was supposed to be hot with all the fire and all that shit? Well baby, Hell ‘IS’ hot because the Vees ARE that fire~” Acting Notes: Confident / Alluring [ Standard Valentino Behavior ]
"Oh, wow. That's... What the fuck is that? You really woke up this morning and said, 'Yeah, that's the move'? The fact that this bullshit is in my proximity is insulting. I wanna die all over again. Eww-uh.” Acting Notes: Disgusted / Catty [ I want the ‘valley’ to come out here. ]
"Listen, precioso… I call you that because you are the crown jewel of my entire afterlife… My perfect little 'Angel'... My greatest treasure... I also call you that because IF YOU KEEP TRYING MY PATIENCE, I WILL FUCKING BURY YOU WHERE ALL TREASURES BELONG... IN THE FUCKING GROUND. ¿Claro?" Acting Notes: Manipulative / Fake Sweet > Angry / Possessive [ I want the shift in tone to be JARRING here. Go from calm/manipulative to ANGRY in an instant. Also do your best with the Spanish. ]
HOLY FUCK
This is stunning work, Suchy!
Would it be possible for you to submit takes of the lines provided in the audition as well? Feel free to ad-lib or rearrange the wording however you need to make the delivery flow naturally, as long as the core intent of each line remains intact.
I'd like to hear the full range of your interpretation of Val, so if you could resubmit with at least two takes for each audition line, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again—I’m really impressed with what you’ve submitted so far!
