Role assigned to: Douglas Grosser

He can't die. He is telling the story so does not exist in this world. However, he becomes a main acting role in season 5. There is more to him than what I yet realize.


Needs to be read exactly as a narrator would say it. Can be any age and male or female. At the moment he/she only speaks in the first couple of episodes however if I find the perfect voice for this role I will consider writing many more lines for the part. A much bigger part in season 5.


Must speak clear English

  • Christmas, a time of happiness, a joyous occasion. Children opening their gifts, parents observing their smiles. The snow covers the ground, snowmen standing newly created. Each and every home spending its final week of the year covered with decorations. As night falls people ready themselves for the yearly traditional Christmas night Mass, both the religious and atheists join together, one giving thanks to God, the other to the leaders of this good city. Time never stands still, always flowing, moving constantly from one second to the next... That is until this one night, time would stop for these people forever. Midnight strikes, the bells ring and the reverend ends his sermon.

  • The story begins before the hero travels to our land, an ordinary man who likes video games, having a drink with his friends, living a life he thought he wanted. A man who almost was involved in a fatal event, it was that event that sowed the seeds of legend and as they grew, his fate came ever closer.

  • As Jamie tried to sleep, all the thoughts of the conversation he had just had preventing him from doing so. How could he be a hero, how could he stop all that is wrong. He just wants to go home, back to his life, back to normality. It seemed as though this was becoming less of a dream and more of a nightmare, his hope of leaving this place becoming ever more loose in his grasp. Things were about to get worse for him for in the overseers mansion...

A good audition but slow it down. It sounds like you're trying to rush through the show. Please look at the following link, the narrator speaks before the church and afterwards. It is edited so you don't need super long pauses but take a look at how the narrator speaks their lines. https://youtu.be/t9SV7K05nek

I can't hear an echo anymore, just a slight background noise. A fan? PC? The sound is not as noticeable in this take though.

Has Jamie tried to sleep...? I don't know where you were going with that before you cut yourself off lol.

I think you have a great voice for the narrator and, even though the microphone you use seems to add more bass to your voice, it could work for this role. The only problem I see is season 5 when the narrator takes a much larger role and is not all that they initially seem to begin with.

It's not a large role up until then but the narrator will also be paid for the interview questions. A pre season recap and other things. Up until season 5 they have a lot more to do with the extras for the show. They will also be offered payment for cast commentary for the shows too.

    I just read the comment in your audition piece above. Sorry, I have to get into the habit of reading those before listening and offering feedback.

    Do not worry about mistakes, it is an audition, I expect them. If you make a mistake, just go back to the beginning of the sentence and try again.

    I will not turn you down for making mistakes in an audition as these are just lines with no context to you, and I honestly do understand that.

      I have just listened to some of your submissions and you don't have the bass tone there or background noise. I am really confused!

        Yes! Sorry, I've just moved setups and it seems some of my mic's settings have been reset. Should be all fixed for the next submission! It's been fully re-recorded now, would you like me to just add another audition to this role?I really appreciate the feedback here! I totally agree with all the changes you suggest, and have done my best to incorporate them into this new submission.

          I welcome all resubmissions that come in, especially if I see potential.

          I also advise you to try out many different roles to increase your chances of getting a role.
