~Rise From The Ashes ~: Artists and Supporting VAs (ADDITIONAL ARTISTS STILL OPEN - More roles TBA)
Corbanator98 for Elliot
Summary: Elliot is a level headed, loyal and friendly teen. An eighteen year old young man who enjoys science and acting, he's very affectionate and a true gentleman to his girlfriend Siberia, not to mention a great friend and ally to have on your side. His abilities involve gravitational manipulation - essentially, he can make himself and other items in the vicinity weightless, including granting himself the power of flight, hence his alias of 'Wizard'. Lately he has also learned how to do the opposite and make items or himself heavier, but that's...still a work in progress. His abilities have attracted the attention of Everest, so having Voss on his back isn't anything too new for him. Elliot is very honest to his morals. It takes a lot for him to lose his temper, but when he does it can be...rather unsettling to bear witness to. He's a hero who will step in to help anyone in need and is naturally very protective of those he cares about. He tries to come across as tough and brave and whilst definitely one with determination to not give up a fight, he often finds himself having to rely on slight quips and 'pick up lines' to keep up that brave face. It can definitely be a handy tool for stalling the bad guys though. As such, he has a good sense of humour (even if they might fall flat on more than one occasion and the bad guys don't particularly appreciate it) and can act pretty cool and casual, but it's only because he bottles up his true worries and fears for the sake of others. After all, that's what a hero does. Sadly he's no stranger to being a lil 'tied up' with things, so that's probably why he now carries spare bobby pins and lock-picks in his socks wherever he goes. In short, Elliot is a very respectable and a considerable role-model, but Voss is one villain he will not hold back on.
Appearance: Arc I (Ch 7 - 9, 12, 13), Arc II (occasional appearances~)
Personality: Brave, Protective, Caring, Heroic, Caring, Well-mannered, Friendly, Moralistic, Determined, Good humoured and Selfless
Voice: Confident and casual, with a mid pitch. His voice should be friendly and caring but also sound more serious and focused when partaking in heroic duties. He will also respond with some sass and sarcasm if you anger him, whilst at other times having a lighter and slightly awkward tone when throwing out his occasional quips to stall for time.
Disclaimer: Elliot belongs to the super talented SilverDragon123 (one of our amazing staff~) and is her precious baby. She will be deciding who the final role goes to, so good luck~ Placeholder artwork also belongs to her too!
[At first nervous and strained, like he’s being lifted by the lapels] [Muttered] Ow. [Clears throat]. Of course I dumpster dive around here. Ow. A-All the time. [More confidently with some sass] It’s called a garbage can, not a garbage can’t.
[Gasping in relief after an adrenaline rush] Oh Glory! Th-that was way too close. ...Hey, you okay, Kiddo? Not hurt? [Relieved sigh]...Don’t worry.. We’re outta there now. Just hold on tight, I’ll get us somewhere safe. …[Slight laugh] Yeah, we’re really flying. Just a little longer and we’ll be at Sibee’s place [With some pride] - ah, she’s my girlfriend. She’s amazing. You’ll love her - and she’ll definitely love you.
[Trying to be confident and cool but actually pretty nervous, attempting to stall] Well, f-funny story...I was in the neighborhood doing...um [Long awkward pause] Fire...escape...inspection. Haaate to break it to ya, Doctor: Yours ain’t up to snuff. [Another awkward pause] Smooth, Wizard. Smooth.
[Through clenched teeth, almost in disbelief and clearly containing anger] Civilised? You call what you’re doing civilised? Kidnapping and holding innocent people against their will? [Progressively getting angrier] Experimenting on supers for the sake of your so-called ‘Greater Good’?! People like you are the worst. [Deep breath to calm down, speaking quieter but still just as furious]. I could probably respect Hitler more at this point. [Growling, threatening] And if you even think of laying a finger on Sibee, I think I can afford to shove morals aside for long enough to make you regret it, ‘Doctor’.
[With determination] I can’t just leave things to lie. I can’t! [Thump as he smacks his fist on something. He exhales] I can’t just sit back when...when I could do so much more. People [Emphasis] need me. There’s more to powers than cats in trees.
Hi again Corbanator, thanks so much for your audition for Elliot! :D From your work, we're 'super' impressed! You had a great tone, pacing, intonation and expressivity and from Elliot's creator herself you 'were amazing and definitely nailed Elliot. Might need to fight over him (you) for which role to play!' I gotta agree my dude, although this is probably your best audition so far. The relief the 'oh Glory' and the 'fire escape' lines were just *perfect* and the emphasis and determination in the last line hit home hard. Really great. Not much to improve on, maybe just a touch more warmth and compassion in line 2 and maybe just slow down the pacing a tad - I found it difficult to hear every word, especially in line 1 which could lead to the punchline being missed. These are just nitpicks though! Great job otherwise! Thanks so much again and take care! :D
