Transformers T.C.W.R.P. is a RP group several friends of mine have had fun in for the past couple of years, to the point where we've created story lines and events to become more professional. In the spirit of making these scenes come to life I was hoping to have talented voice actors play these characters. These will be random scenes plucked from the Story arcs and not a full blown series. Yes, we've stretched the lore and bilogy of the Transformers to fit our own needs(Offspring, siblings,relationships) but most have been grounded into the canon of the universe we've modified, the IDW Comics universe. The rolls available are Original Characters.
Plot synopsis:
The Plot(s) will revolve around a team of young Outlier Autobots who have formed a team to defend whoever they can on their reborn home planet of Cybertron from the always present Decepticons, the devilish Unicronians, and even their fellow Cybertronians. The TNT are that team, and happen to get into a lot of trouble along the way.
Rules:
1. You can audition for as many of these rolls as possible, the more the merrier honestly.
2. Google Docs will be a must, its free to get from what I understand as long as you have a gmail account.
3. You have to have a decent microphone
4. I'd like you to get the lines to me as soon as you can, I will understand if there are troubles going on in your personal life, just PLEASE let me know.
5. If you would like to do them all the lines in one file or one file per line, it's up to you. I'll be happy to accept both. If you voice mulitple characters, just make sure you remember to label them accordingly. Thanks!

With the casted actor for the young TNT leader seemingly not returning any of my messages to him, I can only assume he is too busy. And that's fine! He's a very busy VA anyway, wish he had told me himself or gotten back to me. So for the time being, I am offering the role of Thunder, the young and noble TNT leader for audition. The due date is honestly just when I cast everyone.
He wasn't always a Transformer. He was once a human teenager, one who had a sister, a mother, and a promising future ahead of him. A future snuffed out by the flames that covered the city of Shinjuku when a "Peace Envoy" of the Cybertron Peace Force attacked and killed everyone. A year later he awoke in a Cybertronian body. Having the name and a similar face of a well known traitor, along with combat skills and abilities he never knew he had.
Eventually he not only mastered his sword wielding skills and newfound powers, but became a hero. He's leader of the second TNT, an iteration made almost entirely of younger Autobot outliers.
Thunder is a brave, morally just young warrior. He will do what he thinks is right and whatever will keep those who he cares for safe. Even if it means he and his team, the TNT, are seen as criminals. He's usually upbeat and cheerful, always motivating his friends and trying to lighten up the mood when it gets a little too dark. He tries a little too hard to please everyone sometimes, especially Lightning Storm who despises him with a burning passion. However when he tries to be a good leader, he's damn good at it. Or at least that's what his teammates tell him. He is one of the more emotional and will let emotions like rage, sadness, guilt and many others take over when something strikes too close to home. He not only sees the TNT as his team, but as his family. Especially after what he's been through, he will never lose another family again.
For his voice I was wanting one of the two, or maybe a fusion of both if you can pull it off:
Bryce Papenbrook's Kirito from Sword Art Online
Josh Keaton's Spider-Man from Spectacular Spider-Man
"We're not kids, Onslaught. We didn't come for a play date, we came to kick your can!...Yeah that sounded a lot cooler in my head. TNT, go!"
"Leonidas...I'm no hero. It doesn't matter what you say, you know full well what I am. A human who got caught up in something he can't control who's staving off a huge mental breakdown. Well I mean another one. I'm not some 'brave shining beacon' for the people, no matter how hard you try to spin it. Wanna make someone your shining idol, try Eliten. I mean we look exactly the same! Minus the mask and the intense Tarn-caused mental scarring. Haven't gotten there yet."
"It doesn't matter what the news says about us. It shouldn't matter. Why? Because those people we saved from those 'Cons? That's what matters. We're already societies outcasts. Some of us are speedsters, some of us are insections, blind pervs with echolocation, even elemental users. Heck, some of us are gun toting super thinkers and some of us are cloud loving super bots. The point is it's not our looks or abilities that matter, it's what we do that matters. Together."
Cocky, brave, energetic, and very fast. Surge is a speedster who can run across the planet's surface witout breaking a sweat. He's a skilled fast-footed fighter with a loud mouth, taking his father Sparkblast's electricity, bravery, and some of his narcissism. He loves himself and his speed, but not as much as he loves his friends in the TNT. He may act calm and cool but he does have a darkness within him that he's tried his hardest to supress since he was a young bot. All originating with his mother, a Decepticon warrior named Serenity
For voice think of Kid Flash from Young Justice
"Come on, Crasher! I know you're just a clone but you're a clone of ME! That means you should be keeping up, not being left in the dust!"
"Sonar, look at me...oh wait. Yeah yeah, I know how dumb it sounded as soon as I said it. But let's be real here, if anyone's going to win a race between me and Blurr, it's obviously me."
"Damn it! Oh come on! I'm supposed to be the fastest there is, there's no way some wannabe drone can beat me because of some BS powers!"
She's sassy personified. You annoy her, she'll let you know by tearing you apart using her words. A thick shell but caring, hiding trauma from her past as a young femme. Sharing the same mother as Lightning Storm and Tayla, Midnight, she felt no barrier in being attacted to Surge. Since they weren't related. She's one of the two medics in the tower, being a mentor and big sister to Tayla, calming her when she stresses out.
For her voice think of Jamie Marchi's more sassy roles like Panty Anarchy
"Tayla, take it from someone who's had to live with mom longer than you. She may have said some horrible scrap, but that's just her getting stressed out. This is Tarn after all. The bastard who tortured her fro more than a year, who supposedly took your dad from you two."
"Surge! Wake the hell up, will you? Yeesh, and here I thought Axel was the dumbest here. The bomb was obviously a trap to capture you guys, Thunder didn't try to steal your...thunder. He was keeping you from making a bigger ass of yourself."
"Why the hell are we taking care of a super villain again? No please, Thunder, explain! Because if you don't I'm stopping the procedure right now! I'm done being used without someone giving me some fragging answers.
Sparkblast!! One of the greatest heroes to ever grace the planet of Cyberton with his prescence! That's what he would put on every option of display if he could. An egomaniac, cockier than anyone could imagine, and loving the sound of his own voice and the shine of his visor. He may be narcissistic like no other, but he is one of the strongest Autobots around. He is a hero who has saved countless lives in the past, so it baffles him why many try to point him out to be the villain or a fanger. He's VERY anti-Unicronian to the point of being racist. He's sparkmated to Midnight, former Decepticon and mother of Lightning Storm, Swift, Tayla, an Velocity...most likely more if she had her way nor he had a way to escape her line of sight. He's a "well respected" Autobot commander with a strong sense of what is right and just...most of the time. He keeps his darkness bottled up and gets angry when he isn't enough to stop a threat.
For his voice, Steve Blum's Spike Spiegel.
"Have you not heard of me? I'm Sparkblast! You know, blue bolt of badass? Yeah no, I told Steel Core that was lame. Look, what you need to know is I'm one of the sexiest, most powerful Autobots ever to touch the planet. So don't screw with me? Kay? Kay."
"Thunder I was leader of the TNT before you ever...showed up. Since your clones were still here...I don't know, I just ignore that your clones exist for the most part. Whatever, the point is don't go around saying you came up with this team on your own. Starshadow and I claimed that right a long time ago, kid."
"Leonidas, look into my optics and tell me what you see?" What many see are optics that have seen more than enough death by the hands of those who abuse their power for their own selfish gain. They can also see the sparkle in my optic when I tell them what I did to those certain tyrants."
The brother of Surge, son of Sparkblast, getting the short end of the stick. Lightning Storm or "LS" is an angry, full of himself, highly skilled teenage Autobot. He has serious issues he keeps repressed, but lets him influence who he would save and who he would kill. He has limited to no electrical abilities compared to Surge. He hates everyonr who isn't related to him by energon, or he milfly tolerates them for the most part. The teen is skilled in combat when it comes to CQC and one of the best snipers on Cybertron has ever seen. Now only if he didn't regularly think about "Accidentally" killing the members of his team that he never liked.
For voice think of Arsenal from Young Justice
"Thunder. Stop, just...stop. You're irritatingly nice to me when you know that you screwed me over. Before two months ago, even though you passed me every damn day, even though you asked me for things, you never knew I was there."
"I wonder what if would be like, Tarn? To hear the tragic sound of your beloved Transformation Cog cease functioning...unable to feed that undying addiction of yours, watching you go mad like a starved Sparkeater as you try and try...but with no success."
"Sp-Sparkshot! What are you doing here? I-I thought Leonidas had you on patrol duty for today...no it's not like I was waiting here for you! It was completely random that we met up. Or it's fate, that's what my idiotic team leader would say."
Her origin is a mystery, her mission is not. Scorpia is the queen of the new Insecticon hive on the reborn Cybertron, and off and on member of the TNT. She is loyal to her friends and to her people, which one she favors more is yet to be seen. She will do what she believes is right, even if others don't see it that way. She admires Sparkblast, having met him years ago, and she also admires the TNT's leader Thunder. Bots like LS may dislike him, but she will stand up for him, having a strong sense of duty. She may be small, but she has incredible strength and a deadly Scorpion alt mode.
For the voice, think of a teen Scarlet Johansson.
"Don't worry about it, Thunder. You're our leader, and a leader should be respected more often. More often than you have that is. Hold your helm up high, even if others want to bring it to the ground."
"Why yes, Sonar...why don't you try to grab my aft? I mean, nothing's stopping you now. Don't run, we can have so much fun together!"
"I am Scorpia, queen of the Insecticon Hive! And if you dare to harm my friends any further, then you will feel my wrath, bastard!!"
The innocent mmedic of the team, also the only mother on the team. She cares for her very young offspring, Dubstep more than she cares for the team. She will happilu abandon the team as long as it means her son is safe. She is the most innocent on the team, being shy, caring, and loyal to them. Even when her life is put on the line, she is loyal. Half sister of Surge and Lightning, she feels like an outsider. Luckily her sister Swift makes her feel at home in the TNT tower medbay.
For her voice, try a young, innocent, shy teenage girl who only wants to do good.
"I don't remember my father, my real one that is. My mother always said he died when I asked, but then as soon as we met Sparkblast she said he was my father. I know he wasn't, even after the years that we spent together, I never believed it for a second."
"I-I can fix you! I know I can, Thunder! Just hold on, let me grab the Cybermatter injector! Then I'll need to stabilize your spark chamber using EM-5 pulses...I c-can do this! I know it!"
"My son will grow up knowing his father, I won't let him be like me in that rgard...as long as his father shows up. He's quite illusive as you all may know. Using that..."White Noise" to travel from universe to Universe.
Leonidas Crimson is the son of Megatron from an alternate universe simply known as "Cyberverse", a world destroyed. So thoroughly that he came to this universe for a fresh start, to redeem himself and makes this Cybertron a better Cybertron than his. He has seen this Cybertron's Golden Age, its war, its fall, and its rebirth. He also witnessed its heroes born, such as Thunder, leader of the TNT and who he would consider as his heir. He is the elected President of the Neutral Government, and will protect the ways of people. Leonidas is strong in his beliefs, being the polar opposite to Sparkblast in the case of Freedom vs. Security, believing Security to keep society at peace. He was a former Unicronian king before purging himself of every last remnant of Unicronian CNA, despising them as much as Sparkblast. He has fought without believing in any God, any system, anything but himself. He wants Thunder to become what he never could, a hero. Though he is constantly at odds with Thunder over their individual beliefs, and will do anything he must to secure order. Even if it means going to war with Sparkblast
For his voice, think Benedict Cumberbatch, primarily his Smaug or Khan.
"I look in the mirror and I see...HIS face staring back at me. I see all those he killed every last spark he snuffed out, every face begging for mercy as they see his VILE PEDE preparing to SMASH their pathetic helms in! I see the cities he razed just by lifting his arm...I see all of that every time I look at myself boy. I must live with that.
"I wanted you to become a HERO, boy! Become the thing I will never be for as long as my mutated spark pulses! You were given this chance, this body not by some, cruel, sickened madman trying to create a master race. No...you were given this chance because that's what you always will be. A Hero...in this world, in my world, in every world...you are a hero."
"How DARE you?! You pompous, brightly colored SWINE! I have done NOTHING this past year, but help the neutral people. What have you done, Sparkblast? Hmm? What have you done to better the people's loves? Nothing. You've flaunted your power like a God to his worshipers, your ego has nearly driven the scarlet brand of the Autobots into the GROUND because of you! So before you come to me, accusing me of being the villain...look at the bigger picture. Look at the world around you. THEN...tell me who is the real villain."
She's had a hard life. Her father hiding out on Earth, a planet filled with organics that want nothing but the annihlation of the Earthbound Transformers, to their arrival on Cybertron.To watching her father fight for her, fighting an ancient virus and giving up everything to save her. She refused to sit on the sidelines anymore. Sterling is a young femal Cybertronian given the powers and abilities of a Prime, healing and powerful hard light structure creation. She's sweet and caring, to the point of herself even getting injured severely as long as her friends are okay. However if tempted, she can go from an innocent healer to a full blooded warrior. With the ferocity similar to the warriors of the Amazon
For her voice give me something.
"Dad you need to stop! Please! Your body may be younger but your spark is still as unstable as before! I'll take over frm here. I'm a big girl, I've got this."
"She's my everything, Axel. My Ventus. And I'll be damned before I let those glitches she calls sister lay a hand on her!"
"What's wrong big boy? What was all that talk before of being a big badass? Seems like the badass here is me! Or do I need to do to you what I did to that platoon back there?
