Skyrim-Skaven Companion Mod
Project Overview
Hey there high rollers! My name is Luke, and I'm currently in search of somebody to play the lead role in my upcoming Skyrim mod; Trek the Daedrat. If you're interested, feel free to stick around and read awhile.
Trek is an ongoing project to add a unique, fully voiced Skaven-inspired companion into the world of Skyrim. The groundwork for the companion is already done, and is already fully functional. All that's needed now is a voice capable of bringing this strange lil' critter character to life!
Requirements: A good quality mic! Obviously the recordings don't need to be perfect, but as a standard things such as static and background noise should be kept to a minimum.
How many lines?- As of now Trek is currently sitting at just a little over 200 lines of dialogue. Given the limits of the engine I'm working with however, no line exceeds any more than 140 characters, so make of that what you will in regards to workload.
Pay- The role of Trek has a flat payment of $40, but upon the project's completion you will given a large bonus with a minimum payout of $30. The role of Tarious pays a flat $10 (I tried to change payment for roles but for the life of me I couldn't figure out how.)
Format- I'd prefer .WAV formats, but anything I can load into audacity will do.
Deadlines- None! Record at your own pace!
That's about all the essential information about the project. If you're even mildly interested feel free to send in an audition!
Cheers!

To say that listening to all your audtions was a joy would be a gross understatement! I made it a point to listen to each and every submission, and each audition I had the distinct pleasure of listening to was oozing with passion and charm! Picking one out of many VA's was far from an easy choice, if possible, I would have loved to give everyone their own Skaven or Vigilant to give a voice too, but sadly I can only make so many rats.
Seeing all these auditions however, made me realize that my love of the Skaven is shared by many, and so I have decided to make a Discord dedicated to Skaven appreciation and voice acting! If you like Skaven and wanna do Skaven voices, come drop by! https://discord.gg/cZqtCcd7sr
Thank you all for auditing! Stay excellent!

Bio- Trek is a Daedrat hailing from the fetid Pits of the daedric realm of Peyrite. Like all Daedrats, Trek is wholly loyal to his master, worshiping the plague-father's very presence with borderline mad reverence. Trek is, as far as descriptions go, a lil' fella with a unquenchable bloodlust that far surpasses his size, much like the noble chihuahua. Unlike the shitstain that is the chihuahua however, Trek can actually back up his bloodlust with incredible ferocity and precision with his axe, and is more than happy to cleave through anyone in the name of his lord.
Personality- Trek is heavily inspired by the Skaven "Queek Headtaker" from the Warhammer universe, and acts in a very similar manner, with a few unique exceptions. Trek enjoys plagues, sitting by a warm hearth, fine dirt-wine, and violently feasting upon the flesh of his fallen enemies. Despite these eccentricities, Trek is a wonderful alley to have, for he is loyal to a fault to those whom he has named friend.
Voice- Imagine if the rats nesting inside the Burger King could speak and you'll have a solid baseline for how Trek could sound. Each Skaven voice is uniquely horrific in its own way, so I'm very open to your own interpretations of how this character should sound. For those unfamiliar with how Skaven typically sound however, I will list a few refences that should provide insight to how the little critters speak.

(Very excited) Yes yes! This work, you strong strong! I fight with you, we fight-kill Forsworn, kill false packmaster, bring glory to lord Peyrite!
(Malicious) Mmmmm, darkness. Good for sneaking-stabbing.
(Fighting) Grahh! Lizard thing look like snake-snake! Trek hate snakes, Trek hates you!
Tarious is a minor character, and as such has a much smaller role, but still has a vital role to play in the story of Trek.
Tarious is a devout Vigilant of Stendarr, an order of daedra hunters that blur the line between solders and zealots. He is no exception, possessing a burning hatred for anything daedric, including our Daedrat Trek. Tarious has Trek imprisoned, and is pressing him for information, after which he fully plans to execute the little rat. Though that plan will not come to pass, for he is killed in an ambush before he can finish his interrogation.
I'm open to any type of voice for this character, gruff, snively, even heroic. If you can do a voice like this however, that wound be a sure-fire way to win my everlasting love.

A contingent of the Reachman, particularly devoted to the daedric lord Peyrite, are tailoring a magical plague to unleash upon the more civilized peoples of the Reach.
My brothers and sisters stand against them, outnumbered as we may be, and come the fires of Dagon Stendar's fury will stay the wrath of the Forsworn.
(Dying) Once you arrive at the temple, kill. Kill in the name of Stendarr, and leave no survivors to bask in his mercy.
