~Rise From The Ashes ~: Artists and Supporting VAs (ADDITIONAL ARTISTS STILL OPEN - More roles TBA)
dvu0125 for Fetch
Summary: Fetch is...well, let’s say you don’t wanna piss him off or get on his bad side. Real name Chase Fetcher, mid forties, mercenary and kidnapper for hire - pay the right price and he’ll get the job done. No messing and no pleasantries. He isn’t above murder, but he doesn’t particularly like getting his hands dirty too often (although he has worked in the organ trade before so...yeah…). He’s fast, swift, practical and smart, taking time to assess, observe and plan out the mission before going after the target. He knows every trick up a captive’s sleeve and he knows how to 'settle them down', be it a sharp punch to the gut, a cold glare or a chilling threat that quickly calms a rebellious hostage right down. Respect is important to him and sass will be rewarded by either a slap or an especially uncomfortable gag. If the captive plays nice though, then he can be...nice enough, with little privileges gained for good behaviour. He does things for his own gain and never ‘stuff for free’, so it’s very conditional on his side. That being said, he has a slight secret softer spot for younger captives and even he has opinions of where the line shouldn't really be crossed - even experimenting on teenagers goes past his morals. He travels around with his accomplice, Erick. He may treat the boy like an annoyance and his personal punching bag at times, but he does listen to his advice on the odd occasion and deep down does...care for the boy in his own twisted way. But in short, he'll do pretty much anything for the right price - including going after the escaped 'patients' from the institute...
Note: Whilst Fetch can make some pretty dark and violent threats, they will NOT be carried through on screen (off-screen if at all)
Appearance: Arc I (Ch 9 onwards), Arc II (occasional appearances~)
Personality: Cold, Snarky, Sarcastic, Serious, Focused, Sadistic, Impatient, Cruel, Conditional, Manipulative, Selfish, Easily Angered and pretty Callous
Voice: Gruff and snappy with a low pitch. He often raises his voice and frequently uses quite derogatory language towards his captives or Erick, if the kid gets on his last nerve. He should sound gleefully sadistic when threatening or really getting into his 'work' and be able to growl, yell and bark out orders that will be obeyed no matter what. At other times he can sound pretty casual and almost eerily calm sometimes too.
Disclaimer: Fetch belongs to the super brilliant Maxy, co-director of the project. As such, they will be deciding who the final role goes to, so good luck~ Placeholder artwork also belongs to the amazingly talented scarletfish8eta on Deviantart!
[Yelling] Erick! Get your ass here right now! [Somewhat impatient] Finally. Now...what did I say right before sending you to check on the hostages? [Darker]...Exactly. Give them some water. Don't interact with them. [Raising voice again] So why did I just hear you casually chatting with them? [Exasperated and furious, tugging at Erick’s ears painfully]...For the last goddamn time, what is the point in you having these things if you aren’t ever gonna use them for listening?! Maybe I should just do you a favour and cut them off.
[Annoyed, muttering] Jesus, this is exactly why I hate teenagers. Think they know everything, always talking back. Stupid lil...[Exaggerated sigh before raising voice] Listen up, brats! You’re lucky I’ve been ordered not to harm a hair on either of your pretty lil heads. But if you ever get bored enough to try a stunt like that again, then I’ll gladly find a way for us to pass the time. [Sinisterly yet casually] We’ll play my favourite game. All you need is a scalpel [slow emphasis to drag out the threat] or a nice sharp shiny knife. I call it ‘Where Does It Hurt Most'?
[Explaining] Look, Shortie, I don’t do things for free. That’s not how the world works. [Seriously, a little taunting] You want my help? Then you’ve gotta earn it by doing something for me - and then I might consider lending you a hand. [A bit dismissive] See, I don’t know much about these ‘supers’ or whatever you’re referred as nowadays. Those weird powers of yours may be freaky…[Slow and emphasis] but they are also very useful. [Reverting to casual tone] So, what do ya say, Kid? Wanna hear me out [Threatening] or would you prefer to be back in those ropes whilst I call that doc back?
[Sarcastically, mimicking the guard] Apologies, but I really don’t care. [Hushed and threatening, dark and sadistic] Now, unless you wanna find out exactly what it feels like to undergo a disembowelment without any form of anaesthesia, you’re gonna tell us the code to access the security system in the next five seconds, aren’t you?
[A little panicked, showing care and concern for Erick] Hey, look at me, kiddo! Are you hurt anywhere? Did they do anything to you? ...No? [Relieved sigh] ...Good. That’s good. Now…[Seriously and somewhat threatening] if you ever make me have to risk my ass like that to save yours again, I swear I’ll kill you. Got that? ...Good. Don’t forget it. Now come on. We gotta get the heck outta here. I’ll check you up once we’re away from this goddamn place.
Hi David! :D Thank you so much for auditioning for our project - and our lovable totally not ominous kidnapper himself! I really enjoyed your audition! Your voice pitch and tone is really neat and characteristic of Fetch and you had some pretty good intonation and pacing. I really loved the deliberate dragged out-ness of the 'sharp...shiny...knife' and you got him done really well! Nice job! Maxy should have a listen later to throw some feedback you guys' way too, but some personal feedback to improve...I'd say don't be afraid to let rip XD The yelling and angered lines with a raised voice could be more emphasised (when he shouts, he SHOUTS), the 'where does it hurt most' part could be spoken a little slower with more ominous like the knife part you nailed and the sarcastic line could do with being a little more sneery like 'Apologiiies, but...I don't. really. care." Sort of thing :) That's all I can think of right now, but yeah, that was a great audition! Thank you so much again and take care for now David :D
Hii! First of all, great audition! I'm a little late with my feedback, so it's hard to add anything since Abbie's pretty much said it all. I really, really loved how you did the last line. It was so on point! I'd love to hear if you would like to redo the audition with the commentary in mind. Like Abbie said; don't be afraid to let it rip! Let us know if you would like to try again! - Maxy
