The New Adventures of The Silver Shroud
Project Overview
The New Adventures of the Silver Shroud is a mod for Fallout 4 that has the player return to the role of the Silver Shroud in order to help inspire a struggling comic book merchant. The mission you're sent on seems to be a simple missing persons case but quickly turns into a surreal mind bending adventure set between two conflicting psychic brothers.
It's a project that's been years in the making and now one of the last loose ends to completing it is providing voice work for the mod's supporting cast. We can either do directed sessions where I will personally help you in recording your character or I can provide you a script with their motivations that you can study for yourself. If you have any questions feel free to DM me. These roles are volunteer for now but some may change if I'm not able to find others.
Note: I will be busy editing and implementing alot of these lines so it may take some time for me to get to you even if you're picked. Thank you for your time.
This mod was made over the course of a few years and I made the rookie mistake of doing early voice acting instead of waiting to finish. I've since lost touch with most of the orignal voice actors but heres an example of what they sounded like and what I'm looking for.

The ghoul version of the mods main antagonist. A once deep sounding voice that's been strained and gravely. This will be the last appearance of the character, so emotion will need to be dripping from them in a way that's believable. This will be a live directed session.
Here's a clip of his non ghoul voice actor.
Heres a clip of that actor doing a ghoul version of their voice

(You are finally confronting the hero, you have been defeated but you still have an ace up your sleeve) Well Shroud, we meet at last. Face to face. I everything you imagined?
(Your brother has betrayed you..and despite it all you do still feel some love for him) Lingering feels aren't enough. Why should I give him another chance?
(Offering a ultimatum to the hero mockingly) So what's it going to be? You gonna be the hero who saves everyone, or is this going to end on a sour note?
A failed businessman who's a cross between the personality of the creator of this mod with the voice akin to Woody Allen and/or Bostonian Jewish. Dexter is the mods quest giver and will be a recurring character in future projects. Insecure but determined, nervous but honest (perhaps overtly) Dexter is a man with big dreams and not alot of luck. (Note, for cultural sensitivities sake this role would PREFERABLY be given to someone of actual Jewish ancestry.)
(Trying to sound professional but failing) Um, hi there! My name's Dexter, um if we got the pipboy signal right this should be contacting The Silver Shroud? The one who took down Sinjin? (Sin-Gin)
(Pleading, you don't wanna go back to melon farming) Look..I'm on my knees here. Please..please I need this!
(Excited that your luck is good for once) Yes, yes I knew you were the real deal! Oh this is going to be awesome!
Miss Oliva, a raider who has been brainwashed into believing she is a suburban cougar, when she's not brainwashed she reverts to her aggressive vulgar self.

(Flirtatious) Well it isn't everyday we get a good looking stranger in our neighborhood. My name is Miss Olivia, what can I do for you darling?
(You want the stupid neighbor next door to hear you so emphaisis) I'm glad SOMEBODY has GOOD taste.
(You were just told you've been brainwashed, you find the idea to be nonsense) Psychic ghouls, what kinda of bullshit is this?
A professional to the T, Miss Zhao represents the caravans interested in distributing the comic books. Think of her like Edna Mode but with less Darlings and more seriousness.
(Polite at first but somewhat dismissive at the idea of "comic books") A pleasure to meet you dear, I represent the caravans interested in distributing these comic books.
(A hint of genuine human compassion, trying to be gentle) If I'm being honest with you in turn Mister Feldman, I truly don't know. This isn't the new wasteland survival guide.
(You believe the superhero before you is just an act) What a interesting marketing strategy.
A brainwashed drug dealer who now talks like a 50s "smart" guy who loves his car (in reality it is a barebones rusted wreck). When not brainwashed they become calmer but no nonsense.

(You find the person in front of you to be some kid weirdo) Who's you's? A runaway from Parson's up north? I ain't giving you a ride back so buzz off.
(You got the coolest ride around and you want everyone to know) A highwayman ma man. Good mileage and good space in the back if you know what I mean. Hahe!
(Justifying your drug dealing to a person who is being hostile about your career choice) If people are willing to pay to escape a few hours from the realties of the wastes..Well who am I not to take their caps?

(You can't stand the youth of today) Beh, damn kids these days, whatever happened to respecting your elders? You and that little shitbird in the letterman are both assholes.
(Progressivly threatening, you think your the big shit, the boss of the coul a sac) I'm the thing that sleeps under your bed, watching you at all hours of the night. I'm the the feeling you get as you walk on a busy street as if your gonna be jumped by some maniac. I'm Clark Robinson and I'm the leader of the goddamn Homeowner Association!
(Begging for your life, trying to justify why you deserve to live) I know what I did was wrong, but I've changed, I'm no longer a slaver. I..I still see the people I sold when I sleep, if I could take it back I would but I can't. Please..please just don't kill me.
A local leader for a cult by the name of The Children of Atom, he is a zealot for what he claims is his messiah. Very passionate and very protective of his "savior".

(You find yourself to be insignigant to your messiah, he is truly glorious!) I am the one many call Father Chris. But my name does not matter only He matters.
(You have had your god mocked, a pagan stands before you!) Blasphemer! I should strike you down where you stand for uttering such heresy. He was going to bring about a second great division!
