Rook & Crow: A Fantasy Mystery Podcast (Additional Roles)
TheAtomicRaven for The Magister of Information
The Magister of Information
*Character's name will be different in the script, and will remain undisclosed for the purposes of the casting call.
The Magister of information is a man who knows. It's his job to know things - a job he enjoys far too much. But how he obtains the information, and who he chooses to share it with is his business.
We're looking for someone who can capture the vocal mannerisms of James Spader (Raymond Reddington from "The Blacklist" and Ultron from "The Avengers: Age of Ultron" for reference) and combine it with a posh British accent. We need a deeper voice that's casually informative and charismatic - one that forces you hang onto their every word - but not too overbearing.

To Faefolk, your name is your property. It is the deed to an individual’s very soul, and grants indisputable authority to act on one’s own behalf - or rather, your body is the property of your soul, and your name is the legal document that acts as your proof of ownership. In essence, your name is the law by which your soul is granted permission to operate the fleshy mechsuit you obtained at your birth. Truly a fascinating concept!
Now, surely you must be asking yourself, “If my name is my property, then wouldn’t that also imply that it can be stolen?” And to that I say, “keen observation!” Anytime ownership is assumed, there is always the possibility that ownership can be taken or bestowed upon another. A terrifying thought to consider, when one’s name can be seen as the deed to an individual's autonomy!
Ha! Stories and legends… Well, as Magister of information, part of my responsibility is to collect stories and legends that might hold the potential for truth - you never know when a seemingly innocuous rumor might bear fruit after all…
