Golden Heart Audio Book Part 3!
Project Overview
This is Part 3 of casting for the project! For the uninitiated, this is an adventure that takes place in the northern parts of Europe, in a medieval time. It covers the history of a prophet, healer, and queen of a rat kingdom called Rokfel, a mouse named Ruuna the Golden Heart. My aim with the project is to make an audio play, similar to the unabridged recordings of Brian Jacques' Redwall, one of my biggest influences for this book. There are still many characters who need voices in the book, so don't worry if you see a third posting for the audio book in the spring!

Ramel is Skoglar's first mate and the one usually at the helm. He has a lazy attitude that has very little regard for anyone who isn't himself. As a crude and careless sailor, he's seen a number of things that would send shiver's down any good warrior's spine. He has a deep, round voice that would befit his large and brutish stature that is tainted with a bit of a lazy alcoholic slur.

(with a note of curiosity) “So, we aren’t travellin’ to Dolphine’s cove but straight north? Aye Captain, you put too much trust in that ol’ trinket. But who am I to ask such daft questions?”
(said with a straight faced) “Flippers are no good for holding a hammer or nails, can’t make a straight cut through a board if I tried.”
(Yelling over the thrum of the seas) “Full sail ahead!”
Star is a little mole about 8 years old. He isn't very educated and thus speaks in a simplistic nature. His voice is also broken yet innocent. He is very loyal to his friends, and loves tall places. Here's an example of what star could sound like: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n_dvUovQF4Hhbmb4K6Juq_vYdhZ1115U/view?usp=sharing

(In a tired, groggy voice) “Oh… Five more moments mum… just five more.”
(Quiet at first) “(Sigh) Can’t a good rabbit have his voice heard without shouting?” (Shouting as if to be heard a distance off but with a bit of irritation) “By the tooth! I said yes, mum! Now leave me bally well alone!”
(in a nearly sarcastic way) “Well, I hope you have some bally good food in that old cart, else I’m afraid I can’t let you in, see?”

(Nearly shouting, with a paw cupped around, to great)“Aye, and a good morning to you, Ms Abbess Elliss!”
(Joking at first, then optimistic) “Oh, don’t ye tell that to them. It’ll go right to their heads! Ah, they’re good kids though. They’ve been traveling with I this journey throughout the lands, learning the trade and rout.”
(exerting energy, in a disciplinary yet tough love way)“(Grunt) Alright, enough with that now! Settle thyselves, else I’ll turn us round and you’ll not have any sort of celebration! Come now, good lads.”
King Starliff is a crow pretending to be a starling as their king. He is a selfish bird who wants the land and all it has (including those who live there) as his own. He hoards all the food so that one, he can appease the eagle who threatens his position, and two, so he can keep it for himself. He has a self-righteous attitude that is bolstered by his illusion of nobility. He has a very posh yet aggressive tone about him that booms forth.

(In an unhurried and mocking tone) “Mmm… And why, thy lowly peasant, have thy commanded such a thing? Come now! Speak up! Answer thou King thy worthless scum!”
(In a posh, kingly tone) "What art thy mission, trespassing through the land of the Starlings? And with young ones and babes no less? Surely, they aren’t your own!"
(In a self-righteous command) “You flightless things! I have thee and any thou are with surrounded! Give thyselves up to thou lord!”

(In a calm, delighted tone) “It is very good to see you again, Mr Curry. I hope your travels have met you well! I see your sons have grown bigger and stronger since last we’ve met.”
(Confident) “Oh, enough of this talk. You’ll be safe with us hear at Heartwood abbey. We have our grand wall to keep us well and protected. And with fine watchers too! Your sons could even get some training by our well-seasoned archers to ease your worries!”
(In a tone that is calling to someone a distance away, stern) “What’s that, Eh? I couldn’t hear you! Raise your voice loud and firm so I can understand your words!”
Stink-eye and his brother (Formally un-named as of right now) are two rats of Skoglar's crew. Stink-eye is a gun-rat, a master of the ships canons, whilst his brother has an understanding of reading and writing. These two pirates are sort of a comedy duo. Stink-eye is much skinnier than his brother and tends to be more active, with a more scratchy voice, whilst his brother has a more of a round voice.
