Purple for Prio Altegrad
Priogolas Altegrad, or Prio, is Aary's partner in crime, mercenary and bard extraordinaire (or so he'd tell you).
He's in his early 30s or so, and though he's a charming and charismatic bloke, he can be fairly jokey & goofy in his ways. He's also flirtatious, though his bond with Aary has always been intense for him, and he's forever loyal to her. Despite his somewhat shallow appearances, deep down he's incredibly caring and sensitive, and will do what he can to help people out.
His voice would likely be mid-low range, with a British or US accent, but we're open to interpretations!
Singing ability a plus, feel free to link any if you have some! :)
This character will definitely have future appearances!
Lovely to meet you. My name is Priogolas Altegrad- hair model, mercenary extraordinaire and legendary bard, but you may call me Prio. And thiiiis is my partner in crime, with whom I have an ongoing 'will they, won't they' chemistry- Aaryanu.
You're surprised to find a leg. A rather detached, bloody human leg.
FUCK ME!
Aary goes silent.
That's NOT what I meant and you know it.
Aary stares at Prio, raising an eyebrow judgmentally.
Yes well "FUCK ME" seemed apt to the shock of our surroundings. Not all of us can pull off the vast plethora of visible reactions the way you do.
Prio is prancing around, recreating one of Aary's drunken moments & quoting her. He does so with some sadness, as she denies remembering her confession of love.
"And LOOOOOOoooooooooooo........ we did cry, as the dragon tore your clothes asunder…
The gods did witness a sight indeed, one that rendered us suddenly freed... I leapt upon you in kind embrace, for ‘twas a secret love I hadn't faced-"He stops prancing and kneels down
"And now that we’re free like a pair o' dove, I declare to you..."
He lifts her chin with his hand
"My undying love."
He looks at her, before resigning and sitting back down, avoiding eye contact.
Hey Purple, thanks so much for auditioning! You didn't sound nervous at all in the audition, so don't worry :) We've cast this role now, I think you may have seen the "Closed" next to the name disappear just as I was posting the official casting, so apologies on my part! For any of the roles you audition for on this project, please don't be afraid to do multiple takes/ accents, as we're generally fairly open and like to hear what people can bring to the table! :D First, it was clear you listened to the pronunciation video with your beautiful pronunciation of Aaryanu, which is hugely appreciated! Your delivery overall was strong, and you brought an energy and charisma to it well :) Your singing was strong as well; in future, if it helps to listen to the backing or use a backing track to help guide you, that could help boost the confidence a bit :) For any singing roles, we'd also love a really natural tone to it- your style is great for a classic like Fly me to the Moon, but could come off as a little too modern & stylised for what is essentially a ye olde (though somewhat theatrical) bard :D Hope that helps! Feel free to message me if you'd like any more clarification on anything, & we'd love to hear more auditions from you! :D
Oh lord sorry that was a long message and CCC ignored all the paragraphs I put in ':D My apologies!!
No problem, thanks a lot for the feedback. I'm even more grateful that there IS so much. I will confess I did take a different stylistic approach to the way I normally sing, as I was concerned it wouldn't fit the track, so I'm sorry if that happened to deter you. Although, Prio was the only role I was comfortable auditioning for. If you'd like to hear an audition for any of the other roles, I'd be happy to give it a shot. Again, no need to apologise for the long message, I really appreciate this.
