OMORI: BLACK BOOTH - Reauditions
Jimmersive for 7 - HEADSPACE HERO
During his youth, HERO is the peacemaker of the group, who tries to restrain his friends whenever they get too worked up. He is described as having a mild personality and passionate in domestic work like baking, cooking and cleaning, making him an ideal employee. HERO also has a charismatic side that he uses to charm others. His charisma allows him to convince others to go along with his requests, get discounts from MAILBOX and befriend animals like EMS. However, he can sometimes be a pushover when confronted, and has difficulty refusing others. He also appears to have arachnophobia (an irrational fear of spiders) to the point of freezing up completely.
HEADSPACE HERO has a mild personality. Being the oldest, he is the role-model of the group and therefore has more of a mature tone compared to his friends.
HERO is around 15 years old. His voice can be anywhere from low to medium pitched, but he should not sound like an adult.
This is the voice of REAL WORLD HERO: https://www.castingcall.club/auditions/2431616
We are looking for a voice that sounds younger than this.
The HEADSPACE HERO we are looking for should not be nervous in the delivery of his lines. He is confident and more mature in his delivery compared to his friends. He wears his emotions on his sleeve, but he doesn't have much to hide either.
Additionally, HERO is meant to be a charmer so his voice should reflect that. However, this property shouldn't be overexaggerated(Except in line 1).
[Line 0]: HERO often asks OMORI questions that the player can respond to. As such, he should have a somewhat neutral delivery for this line.
[Line 1]: This is HERO trying to get someone to do something. He should be more charismatic than usual here, but not to the point where he's overcompensating. His charisma should be endearing.
[Line 2]: HERO does not want to hurt the feelings of others. Having to reject SWEETHEART, despite her rudeness, is something he would rather not do(He's a bit of a crowd pleaser). And so, HERO should sound somewhat reluctant.
"MARI and BASIL invited us for a picnic at the playground! Did you want to go see them?" (Neutral, friendly tone)
"Ahem... Greetings, Sir CONVEYOR-BOT. My companions and I require your assistance in changing the directions of your conveyors. Will you and your friends please help us?" (Charismatic)
"Sigh... Why do I have to do this?" (Whispering to self)
"Ahem...I'm sorry, SWEETHEART, but... I'm... not... interested..."
