Casting Call! Outlaw Odyssey — Indie JRPG | 3 Featured Roles + NPC Roster
Outlaw Odyssey is a story-driven, turn-based indie JRPG built in Godot, set in a fantasy world modeled on the Iberian Peninsula. The teaser follows four outcasts racing to save a sick child whose illness is the first ripple of something much larger. Tonal inspirations: Persona 5, Metaphor: ReFantazio, Delicious in Dungeon.
Now Casting - Featured Roles
- Jacinto - Adoptive grandfather, town physician, the party's steady hand. Middle-aged man with old-soul energy. Warm, low, measured voice. Comfortable code-switching English/Spanish; bonus points for a Cuban accent.
- Laura - Cici's mother, exhausted, crying for days. Middle-aged woman with serious emotional range: grief, fury, gratitude, near-broken whispers, sometimes in the same scene.
- Cici - A small girl in a sickbed. Voice age 6–8. Few lines, all of them carrying the emotional stakes of the teaser.
Plus the townsfolk of Bienviogar
A full roster of NPCs - gossipy elders, fishing-obsessed young men, a devout priest, kids arguing over flowers, town guards, and more. Versatile actors welcome on as many roles as feel right. Latin American and North American accents are preferred for most NPCs.
