The Otherlands [CASTING WAVE TWO]
Alex Rajagopal for Robin Blair
Robin Blair
Robin (she/they) is Lauren's 16 year old adoptive child. She's nervous and skittish, listening to whatever the people around her ask of her. She's very sweet if you get to know her, and a good friend, but the adults in her life don't exactly give her the opportunity to show that.
Robin is transfeminine and closeted. Please keep this in mind while auditioning. I imagine her voice to be soft and feminine, though not trained to sound perfectly like a girl's voice.
This is a recurring role, though she only has a small moment in season one, and a few recurring scenes in season two. She becomes extremely important as of season three.
NOTE: This character is related to some of the heavy topics seen in the show, such as manipulation and suicidal ideation. Please be warned before you audition!

(Reluctantly trying to sway someone's ideas) "You know, the... book isn't completely wrong. How much do you know about the Guard?"... "They used to help... and then the captain put the curse up, and all the Guard members just... disappeared."
"I'm... sorry. You don't deserve this, okay? Please understand that." (Do two takes of this line - one as if she's helping someone she found injured, one as if she was the one to cause the injury.)
(Breaking down) "I-I can't do this anymore, Kit! I can't- I can't do what she wants, I can't be who she wants- I can't be her puppet anymore!"
