From Post-Self

Point of view characters

Ioan Bălan

Nonbinary DMAB, Romanian, very thoughtful and calm, which is often a front for confusion or getting lost in eir thoughts or in autistic hyperfixation.

Codrin Bălan

Same as Ioan, but have leaned a bit more feminine.

Douglas Hadje

Cis man, Canadian (Saskatchewan), nerdy, competent, a little harried, emotional.

Yared Zerezghi

Cis man, Ethiopian, cares deeply about political issues and can get frustrated, anxious, always a little bit in over his head.

Michelle/Sasha

Cis woman, Colorado-ish, chronically exhausted, has suffered some neurological damage that leads to her having to enunciate more deliberately, covering it as best she can with a stage voice.

True Name

Cis woman, calm, confident, competent, professional, enunciates clearly and deliberately as she's based off Michelle/Sasha, but without the exhaustion.

Major characters

Dear

Nonbinary, it/its, American, is described as "speaking in italics" (which I have rendered before by pitching up the recording 4% and adding just a touch more reverb, but totally up to you). Snarky, quick-witted, posh. Enunciates clearly and deliberately, as it's based off Michelle/Sasha.

May Then My Name

Cis woman, personal, romantic, soft, maybe a little cute, everyone falls a little in love with her. Enunciates clearly and deliberately etc. etc.

Yosef Demma

Cis man, Ethiopian, a bit of a slimy politician.

Jonas Anderson/Jonas Prime/Ne Jonas

Cis man, British, definitely a slimy politician, if not a bit of a movie star, slick, confident.

Debarre

Cis man, East-coast, snarky/angsty

Other characters

Zeke/Ezekiel

Cis man???, raspy voice, constantly tired

user11824

Cis man, Maori, plain, boring, normal to the point that it's notable

Dear and Codrin's partner

Totally up to the VA. Technically, they are the reader, as their character is the player character in a bit of interactive fiction.

Demma's driver

Cis man, Ethiopian, friendly, professional

Martin Rankin

Cis man, smarmy git

Renee

Trans woman, forgetful, but laughs about it

Tycho Brahe

Cis man, Cascadian, tired, a bit beat down, but very nerdy

Sadiah

Cis woman, scattered, all over the place in her energy levels

End Waking

Cis man, calm, quiet, tired, but friendly

Why Ask Questions

Cis woman, perilously friendly, quick to laugh. Enunciates clearly/deliberately

No Jonas

Cis man, calm, bookish
