Name: Hal Ruskin

Age: 21

Species: Brown Hooded Kingfisher/Human

Role: Ex Pop Idol, Inmate

Hal is a pop-idol who has been dealt a difficult card - being sentenced to jail time for a crime he did not commit. Or maybe he did? People are torn. To some, he is just another desperate idol fallen from grace, and to others, he is the tragic story of wrong place, wrong time. 

Hal is a kind-hearted individual, and is an introverted extrovert. His goal has always been to make those around him feel cared for and happy. However, this also means he can feel high amounts of pressure, which manifest in a snappy or stressed attitude. However, he assures people that this shouldn't be taken personally, and is just his own feelings in the moment.

He can be somewhat unaware of situations, partially out of a lack of knowledge and also as self defence. Hal does not like to give himself more things to be concerned with.

Hal can be prone to self-destructive thoughts in light of failure, a trait he has learned from his idol activities. He is an extreme perfectionist when it comes to himself, and holds himself in high regard. This is manifested in his storyline, where he struggles to see his "idol self" and real self as the same person, believing that his idol self is a separate, "pure" version of himself that is superior in every way. This is only amplified when fans find out the address of the Facility he has been placed in, and start sending him mail with pictures and posters of nothing but his idol-self within.

----

Hal is the one of the many protagonists in the story, but he is the first to be introduced. He also acts as an "in" to the rest of the world and the characters. 

• Hal has a mid-high range voice. His accent is unspecified, I'm open to various interpretartions!


• His voice is friendly, with a touch of warmth.


• Being able to sing is a preferable skill


• POC Voice actors are encouraged to apply for Hal's role

Hal is startled awake by the officer shouting in his face. He looks at the officer, wide-eyed. The closeup of his face focuses on his eyes as he catches his breath.

HAL

Oh my go- I am so, so sorry. 

He quickly scrambles up.

LINE 2:

He paces down the stairs, where his mother is already awake.

HAL

Morning, mum!

ALOUETTA 

Morning, dove. Breakfasts almost ready,

Hal approaches her and looks into the pan. Shakshuka eggs. He admires them briefly, before shaking his head.

HAL

Can't today, sorry ma! I need to be in central in the next hour. I have radio this morning, fitting at noon and practice till late after!

LINE 3:

INMATE

Fight! There's a fight in the yard!

Andrew, Dion and Hal exchange glances. Hal looks more worried than the other two.

HAL

Is this... Normal?

DION

(He shrugs)

More than you think. Welcome to prison. Do you wanna go watch?

HAL

(He looks at the window, then back to Dion)

Hmm, ok. Is it gonna get ugly?

IMPORTANT NOTE: Crevan's storyline features topics such as Sex Work, Past abuse/trauma and recovery from trauma. If these are topics that you feel may impact you negatively, I urge that you do not audition for this role. Your mental health is more important than a casting.

Name: Crevan Foxglove

Age: 24

Species: Red Fox/Human

Role: Officer, Eventual inmate

Crevan Foxglove is a primary protagonist of the Jailbird series. He appears in Jailbird all the way from the beginning of the Prologue, to the end of the Epilogue. He starts the story as a correctional officer at Triation facility, but is arrested at the end of series one charged with Prostitution, Profiting from Prostitution, Driving without insurance and Driving without a license.

He is a passionate aspiring fashion designer stuck in a difficult spot. He works as a correctional officer out of necessity, not because he wants to. However, this is only a part time position and is not enough for him to live on. To make up for it, he frequently partakes in Sex work to make up the extra money. Despite this, he still cannot afford an apartment of his own near to where he works. Therefore, he has been living in house shares on and off, and in his car any other time.

He's soft-spoken, often sounding awkward or seeming as if he is at a "lower percentage" compared to his co-workers at the facility. He seems disinterested in most small talk, unless it's about something he likes. He also tends to be on the shy side. However, he could talk for hours about fashion, fashion history and his own designs. He also finds a lot of joy in making/upcycling his own clothes - he is extremely creative.

Crevan is autistic, a diagnosis he doesn't recieve until series 4 when he is pushed to investigate further by Oliver after Oliver does a mock evaluation on him for his study. Crevan has grown up masking due to being unaware of his condition and not having the facilities to entertain the idea.

----

Crevan is the one of the many protagonists in the story. A large portion of series 1, in the event that the pilot is successful, will focus on Crevan alongside Hal as they adjust to big changes in their lives.

• Crevan has a mid-range voice


• He is largely monotone, not changing in pitch. He is also soft-spoken. Crevan has a Scottish accent, and I am open to hearing all dialects!

Hal looks Crevan up and down nervously, taking in his appearance. He doesn't look strong enough or stern enough to be an officer. He also looked to be around Hal's age.

CREVAN

You will be taken inside for processing. They will examine you for any contraband, as well as general health. Follow instructions, do not complain. Got it?

LINE 2:

Oliver is between two inmates who are at each others throats. Crevan comes rushing out, and holds onto one of them.

OLIVER

It's about fucking time??

CREVAN

It's been 33 seconds!

OLIVER

That is oddly specific, Crevan!

CREVAN

(Holding back inmate)

Can we discuss my attentiveness to time on another occasion? We have a fight to break up.

LINE 3:

LUPA

(curious and somewhat sarcastic)

Looking at him again, Lover boy?

CREVAN looks at her, slightly agitated.

CREVAN

I don't know why you keep saying that. This isn't what you think it is.

LUPA looks at CREVAN silently, expecting him to continue.

CREVAN

It's just a little odd, isn't it? The way he just threw away a good life like that... Why would someone do that?

Name: Oliver Kai

Age: 26

Species: Domestic Shorthair Cat/Human

Role: Inmate

Oliver Kai is one of the main protagonists of the Jailbird series. He appears in Jailbird from the beginning of chapter 1, to the end of the prologue. He is Triation's inmate advisor - a role tasked with bridging the gap between inmate and officer. He acts as a point of advice and support for inmates, and can act as an unbiased support if inmates have complaints. 

Oliver, outwardly, attempts to be a supportive and kind face to the other inmates. His goal is to make sure everyone is safe, satisfied and getting along. Which almost never happens. As a result, Oliver is constantly chasing up on inmates questions, breaking up fights and making sure everyone's behaving. Therefore, he is an overworked, exhausted mess. While he tries to hide this, it sometimes slips out as a crabby attitude, especially towards the officers, many of which he does not have respect for. Oliver doesn't mind acting like a bitch to those he doesn't respect.

Privately, Oliver can be sarcastic, but warm. He only feels comfortable to take off his "armour" around those he is close with, but especially Etan and Phil - who understand him on a deeper level than most other characters. He is a romantic partner, enjoying physical connection and contact which makes him feel safe and cared for. He has found himself in a romantic "throuple" with Etan and Phil - they have not officially established this, but find comfort in each others company.

Oliver is constantly plagued by reminders of his past as a troubled teenager, constantly getting into crime and hurting people as a result. Oliver firmly believes he is not a good person, and will never truly be good. 

----

Oliver is a primary supporting character in the pilot, acting as a guide around the prison. However, he takes on the role as a primary protagonist throughout series 1 onward.

• Oliver has a mid-range voice.


• His voice is tired and layered with a thin veil of judgement or sarcasm.


• I am open to interpretations on his voice! I haven't really considered what he'd sound like in terms of accent.

OLIVER

A few times. Keep in mind, I come from a much tougher place than you. I had years to sharpen my claws.

DION

I guess so, but is medium security REALLY that different?

Oliver scrunches up his nose.

OLIVER

(a slight hiss to his voice)

It was different *enough*. But I owned it, now I'm here. You're just a newbie, you'll learn in time.

LINE TWO:

The barbershop is extremely busy, but well-kept and organised. Pop diva hits play over the radio. In the corner, a young teenage-looking otter is sweeping the floor with a mopey expression. The head barber, Gabriel, is a tall man with an air of confidence. He's working on a client when he notices the group - he gives them a sassy smirk and a wave.

OLIVER

This is the barbershop - Gabriel is our main barber. Don't underestimate his flamboyant appearance, he knows his way around a pair of boxing gloves. He runs a tight ship, don't mess him around.

LINE THREE:

OLIVER

This is Phil. He makes good food, he is not your usual lazy chef.

(whisper)

by the way, you need to do the bidfood order so I can call them for yo-

PHIL

(sounding matter of fact, but not annoyed))

I know, I have it here for you. You know I can call bidfood myself right?

OLIVER

I know, but I don't want you having more stress than you already have.

PHIL

By offloading it onto yourself? You need to give yourself a break.

It's evident Oliver and Phil seem a little closer than other inmates. Hal and the other inmates stand awkwardly as Oliver and Phil bicker back and forth. Oliver and Phil seem to notice, and stop.

A redesign for Ethan is in progress.

Approx. Line Count = 16 Lines - £22 Flat rate pay

Name: Ethan Flores (Pronounced Eitan)

Age: 24

Species: Flame-Knee Tarantula

Role: Inmate

Ethan Flores is one of the main protagonists of Jailbird. He's extremely, maybe sometimes overly friendly, and works as transportation for inmates. Since driving is much rarer in the Jailbird universe, he is one of few inmates who can actually drive. He's also known for 'adopting' some new inmates and supporting them. He is a part-time tattoo artist, and enjoys taking care of insects.

Ethan has adjusted well to prison life, being seen as "high up in the ranks" due to his wealth and skills as a tattoo artist. He is also extremely charismatic, making him very convincing and easy to talk to. This is what has granted him many connections throughout the facility, and he is the beating heart of his friend group. He is rarely sad or angry, and is just riding out his time.

Ethan is transmasculine, a fact not known by many inmates, but known by people in his friend circle. Ethan is also romantically tied to both Oliver and Phil, as they all find comfort in each others company and treat each other like romantic partners. 

Prior to the events of the story, Ethan suffered a head injury in a prison fight, causing him to develop post-traumatic Epilepsy. This is something he doesn't become aware of until series 2, after a particularly bad seizure. Up to that point, he has infrequent absent seizures.

----

Etan is a primary character in Jailbird, acting as a way to connect characters together.

• Etan has a mid-range voice.


• His voice is warm and energetic, with a South American accent (unspecified - feel free to audition regardless of specifics!). He can also speak Spanish.

OLIVER

Huh. Dion, Hal - that's for you.

DION

(confused)

What's for us?

ETAN

He's saying the job board is up - your time as freeloaders is officially OVER! time to get a job and enter the working world. It only took them what, 2 months to get a new one up?

As he steps up, the shot focuses on the character in the drivers seat. He's a young man, half spider with a 2nd hair of arms and a 2nd pair of eyes. He's flicking through what looks like a playboy magazine hidden inside a newspaper. When he notices Hal, he swiftly closes the newspaper and stuffs it behind him.

ETAN

Heyy, the straggler! I have to say, you looked veeery comfortable in that other bus. I almost didn't wanna wake you.

Etan gives a thumbs up as the officer shuts the door. He turns the key and they begin to drive.

ETAN

Not a long one, fellas! About 10 minutes and we'll be at your destination. Don't ask me to change the music, because I won't!

Name: Dion Reid

Age: 18

Species: River Otter/Human

Role: Inmate

Dion is one of the main protagonists in the story. Before Hal, he was one of the newest inmates in the cast, only being in prison for 1 month as of when Hal is sentenced. 

He is a typical teenager who doesn't like authority, and prefers to dance to the beat of his own drum - or in this case, the rhythm of his guitar. He is a passionate guitar player and loves rock and metal music. He can be friendly, but often approaches everyone defensively at first. When he is angry, he is stand-offish and explosive, making sure his thoughts and anger is known to those around him. As a result of this attitude, he has gotten into a few petty fights.

He has latched onto Oliver a bit, seeing him as an older brother figure. Dion's real older brother has been missing since Dion was young. The large amount of pressure placed on him by his family in light of his brothers disappearance is why he eventually committed his crime. 

----

• Dion has a mid-range voice (I was previously open to higher ranges, but have now realised a mid-range voice is more ideal!)


• Feel free to audition with a variety of accents! [EDIT: this used to say Scottish, but I'm open to other accents now too!)


• He tends to mumble and grumble, but also has a high range. Some of his scripts in the future may include him shouting or raising his voice. While he doesn't sound like it, his delivery is similar to Jesse Pinkman from Breaking bad.

CREVAN

Oliver is asking me if you are happy with your jobs.

Hal and Dion look at each other, then shrug. 

HAL

I think mines ok,  I picked commissary.

DION

I picked- well, I was *forced* to pick barbering. 

Crevan raises an eyebrow at Dion when he mentions the job he picked.

CREVAN

(intrigued)

Barbering.

DION

Yeah, barbering. It's just cutting hair, not like it's hard.

GABRIEL

(he makes a "hm," sound)

There you have it. The kid doesn't want to be here, and I don't want him running a muck in my space. I think I know how this goes.

Dion perks up, looking offended

DION

What do you mean you don't want me here? What's your problem? I don't want to work for you anyway, you sound like you have a stick up your ass and your music su-

Dion continues yelling at Oliver as he watches him leave, letting out an annoyed groan when he sees the door shut. He turns around to look at Gabriel. Gabriel is much taller than him.

DION

I'm not scared of you.

GABRIEL

(he sighs)

I wish you were.

DION

You won't be able to boss me around like whoever came before me, got it?

GABRIEL

Just grab a belt.

Name: Gabriel Moreno

Age: 30

Species: Flamingo / Human

Role: Inmate

Gabriel Moreno is one of the oldest members of the cast, and one of the cast members with the most prison experience. He has spent the last 8 years of his life in prison, and is now spending his last 10 in minimum security after supposedly good behaviour in medium security.  As a result of his experience, he has gone into Triation as a "higher level" inmate. He runs the prison barbers, a hub of communications and exchanging information in quick succession. He enjoys leading a team and being in charge, and shares a lot of responsibility with Oliver - since they know each other from their time at Medium Security together. 

While he acts professional, polite and friendly outwardly, he is quite a dark person. From his life working in organised crime, he has a hardened personality and fierce temper he can't quite seem to shake for good. He's trying, though. Gabriel butts heads with Dion frequently throughout the series, as Dion becomes his new trainee under the barbering scheme.

----

Gabriel plays an important role later in the series as a tie to the backstory and prison life prior to Hal's introduction. He also has a lot of backstory with Oliver and Phil. 

• Hal has a mid-low range voice


• His voice when talking causally is friendly, even slightly sassy. However, he can turn dark and fierce fast. 


• Gabriel's accent is unspecified. Please feel free to audition regardless of accent!

Gabriel leans into Dion, grabs his jaw and turns Dion's head.

GABRIEL

But this boy has never touched a pair of hair scissors in his life. Does he even want to be here?

DION

I don't want to be here.

GABRIEL

(he makes a "hm," sound)

There you have it. The kid doesn't want to be here, and I don't want him running a muck in my space. I think I know how this goes.

Gabriel stands up at full height and nods, walking over to the corner with Oliver. Gabriel turns up the music on the radio beside them, causing Dion to cover his ears from the sudden noise.

OLIVER

Help me out here, please? I think he'd be good for you.

GABRIEL

Are you saying that because it'd be good for me, or it'd be good for you? I would love to help you Oliver, but I need someone qualified. I'm not running an apprentice program here.

He's working on a client when he notices the group - he gives them a sassy smirk and a wave.

OLIVER

This is the barbershop - Gabriel is our main barber. Don't underestimate his flamboyant appearance, he knows his way around a pair of boxing gloves. He runs a tight ship, don't mess him around.

GABRIEL

He's right, you know! If you need a trim or a shave, just give me a call. Respect my time, respect my space, and we'll get along just fine.

Name: Forrest Clark

Age: 26

Species: Australian Shepard/Human

Role: Inmate

Forrest is not a criminal in the traditional sense. His intentions mean well, he just doesn't go about things in the best way. He's sweet, friendly, but also not the brightest bulb in the room. He has spent time in and out of juvenile detention for piracy and selling counterfeit goods, but has no history of violence. If there is anyone who doesn't belong in the facility, it's probably Forrest.

He's found a great sense of accomplishment working alongside Phil as an assistant cook, and looks up to Phil as a point of inspiration. He also helps Omari run a dungeons and dragons club every week and runs a "music club" with Dion where they talk about their favourite music. Speaking of music, Forrest is a massive idol fan and loves Hal's idol group!

----

Forrest is a primary supporting character in the series, often tagging along with the main cast.

• Hal has a mid-low range voice. His accent is unspecified, I'm open to various interpretartions!


• His voice is friendly, excitable and sociable.

A cheerful young man with a big, beaming smile, is talking to another small group of inmates. He's wearing a t-shirt from a popular idol group.

FORREST

Can you believe the new album comes out next month? I can't believe Mr. Foxglove is gonna buy it for me!

Hal is back at his bed, looking around at the sparse area. Forrest, Omari and Bo walk up the gangway to their beds nearby. Forrest looks at Hal, then does a double take, and his eyes widen.

FORREST

It's you! You're Hal!

HAL

(He laughs)

Yes, it's me! Dion told me you know me.

FORREST

It is such an honour. I'm Forrest, I have listened to your groups music for years! Out of all the places I expected to meet you, it wasn't here!

HAL

I'm guessing... You know?

FORREST

Yeaaah... I know about the trial. But you seem to be handling it well!

Name:Andrew Hales

Age: 28

Species: Deer/Human

Role: Inmate

Andrew is a tragic story - arrested and charged for killing his own son (who, as of the pilot, is still missing and hasn't been recovered). He did not commit this crime, and was a victim of crooked detectives who wanted to close the case before it went cold. Andrew's case is largely debated in online communities, but Andrew has resorted to a life of quiet and keeping out of the spotlight. He struggled for years, spending a large portion of time in Triation's mental health unit. He is a special case - his sentence is far longer than the specified 10 year requirement, but Triation was one of the few facilities with an open mental health unit.

He is doing better now, getting support from his friends (primarily Oliver and Etan, and eventually Hal). 

----

Andrew is a main character, but his appearance in the pilot is brief.

• Hal has a mid-low range voice. His accent is unspecified, I'm open to various interpretartions!


• His voice is quiet, low and shy.

HAL

I was told by someone called Etan that I should find him...? I was, well, wondering where his sleeping quarters are.

ANDREW

Oh. Over there.

Approx. Line count = 3 Lines - £10 Flat rate pay

Name: Phil Ward 

Age: 30

Species:Harlequin Rabbit/Human

Role: Inmate, Prison Chef

Phil, like Gabriel, has the most prison experience. However unlike Gabriel, Phil has spent his entire time at Triation. He comes from a very wealthy family which has since exiled him due to his actions. However, this does not bother him. After his arrest, he found his passion for cooking, and worked up the ranks to become the prisons head chef. While he works hard, he does not mind it, as it keeps his mind occupied and ensures that people respect him.

Phil is traditional. He is polite, but he is not kind. He is very matter-of-fact. He is also very self-focused and focused on those around him. He would not save the world if given the chance, he would only save his friends and the ones he loved. He has found himself involved in a relationship with both Etan and Oliver, something he finds great comfort in, even if he is not a very overt or romantic lover. 

Phil's life isn't entirely stress-free, however. Some poor decisions when he first arrived have left him with an almost decade-long struggle with another inmate, who has promised him protection in return for utilising part of the prison kitchen freezer to store illegal items. 

----

Phil is somewhere between a main protagonist and supporting cast member. He has a lot of storyline but may not be as involved with the main group.

• Hal has a mid-low range voice. He speaks clearly with a clean, posh accent. However, this is more natural and less cartoony.


• His voice is matter-of-fact. He does not add more energy than he needs to.

It's evident Oliver and Phil seem a little closer than other inmates. Hal and the other inmates stand awkwardly as Oliver and Phil bicker back and forth. Oliver and Phil seem to notice, and stop.

PHIL

Welcome. I am Phil. Respect my kitchen staff, follow the rules of the food hall, and we'll get along. Don't insult my food.

OLIVER

This is Phil. He makes good food, he is not your usual lazy chef.

(whisper)

by the way, you need to do the bidfood order so I can call them for yo-

PHIL

(sounding matter of fact, but not annoyed))

I know, I have it here for you. You know I can call bidfood myself right?

OLIVER

I know, but I don't want you having more stress than you already have.

PHIL

By offloading it onto yourself? You need to give yourself a break.

PHIL

Ok chefs - Officer's lunches! Fish cake, mashed potatoes, beans! One short than normal. Heard?

KITCHEN STAFF

Yes Chef!

Phil continues observing. Forrest passes Phil a spoon with some soup on it. Phil takes it, blows on it gently and then sips it.

PHIL

Good, much better. Add some more salt and you'll be golden.

Name: Omari Furaha

Age: 22

Species: Sheep/Human

Role: Inmate

Omari Furaha is a mostly quiet character, choosing to invest his time into creative avenues. He runs the casts dungeons and dragons game, and spends time drawing artwork for other inmates in return for payment. He does not tend to get involved in the major plots or narratives. Instead, his sessions act as a respite and escape for the cast. He is generally well-mannered, but often sleepy due to spending late nights working on his campaigns.

----

Omari is a supporting member of the cast, and does not have a large speaking role in the pilot. However, in the event that the pilot is successful, he has more speaking lines

• Omari has a mid-low range voice, with a warm, sleepy tone to it.


• His accent is unspecified, so I am open to a variety of accents!  


• POC voice actors are encouraged to audition for Omari's role

FORREST

Can you believe the new album comes out next month? I can't believe Mr. Foxglove is gonna buy it for me!

Next to Forrest is Omari. He's resting his head on the picnic bench, clutching a bundle of books in his hands.

OMARI

Speaking of officer Foxglove... I wish he'd hurry up. I don't want this to go on too long. We're meant to be running a game out here soon...

HAL

I guess so...? It's the hand I've been dealt, have to go with it. Sitting in a holding cell for 2 weeks puts a lot of things into perspective.

OMARI

Wow... 2 weeks, that's quite a bit of time. Mhm, prisons are very busy right now... I am Omari, I run the d&d campaign. If you want me to get you set up, let me know...!

Role: Inmate

Bo, once a hardened criminal, is now trying to live the quiet life. A particularly fierce brawl has left him almost entirely deaf, and blind in one eye. It put things into reality for him, and since he has been focusing on keeping his head low. He works for Gabriel in the barbers, and has taken a liking to Gabriel. However, he is a man of few words and tends to avoid conversation.

----

Bo is a supporting cast member, but has ties to plotlines prior to when Hal is introduced.

• Bo has a low-range voice.


• His accent is unspecified, so I am open to a variety of accents!  

Hal turns to Bo.

BO

(Speaking gently while signing.)

Hello, stay out of trouble please.

Not far from Forrest and Omari, Bo, a more muscular man with visible scars, is watching the fight with a detached and neutral expression.

He sets his weight down, and begins to sign while talking.

BO

They never learn, do they?

The inmate shakes his head in return, continuing his set.
