Doomsday Paradise: The Witch and the Spider Queen
kstegercello for Gretchen the Witch
Bio: Gretchen is a powerful witch who spends most of her time knitting, reading fanfiction, and petting her two skeleton cats.
Character: Gretchen might be two hundred and something but she never stopped being anxious and awkward and geeky. She likes cocoa and scarves and geeking out with her friends online. She has a lack of confidence that often manifests in a bit of a stutter, a slightly awkward laugh, and gets easily flustered. But she's kind, easily excitable, and actually competent (very much a rarity in this game).
Tips: These are lines that will be repeated a fair bit! Don't draw them out, focus on the character above all things, and try to communicate emotion. I have a document full of feedback from my last casting call you may find helpful.
[Nervous, anxious, saying hi to a new group on the first day of school but you don't feel great about yourself and they're all so cool] U-um hi
[Being a bit of a know it all, you knew all that time reading wiki articles was good for something, excited to share some stuff you've nerded out over, how could they not know Banjo frog has 8 platinum albums???] Well, actually...
[Showing off, you're the best, hyped about general witchery] Witchcraft!
