[CLOSED] When Tower Angels Fall | Dystopian Podcast Series
katabelle for Siobhan
40s – 50s. Warm. Patient. Hopeful.
Seen only in flashbacks, Siobhan is Oscar and Ophelia’s single mother; a woman miraculously capable of maintaining hope in a time when it is all but burnt out. She stands to be a beacon of strength to her two children, showing them equal but distinct expressions of love and devotion. She is poisoned against her ex-husband for reasons the twins were too young to know, and is fierce as a lion to protect them by any means necessary.
Voice type: any pitch, any accent. Capable of moments of both absolute tenderness and the harshness of a mother warning her children against things they cannot hope to understand.
This role is open exclusively to non-White VAs.
[with an air of magic, warm and reassuring a child who is upset]
This is one of the seeds from the family roses. They don’t put them out very often, but I’ve been collecting them years and years, ever since you were born. And this one you get to take care of, all of your own. Would you like that?[gentle but firm, trying to explain something very painful]
It’s because… the person you love is supposed to be your other half. They’re meant to make you better, see? But I never – never had room for him, not for a long time. Because there are two of you, aren’t there? You and Fee. You’re two halves, and you took both of mine.[firm, snapping, losing her cool]
You shouldn’t ever think about him again, you understand me? Ever. He lied, sweetness. Even if he didn’t, I would never let him do that - that much is for certain!
