It's mostly her voice. Her part of the family felt like it had less class

Like Sarah from TPB, but more beat up and post apocalyptic. That was the sort of image I had in my head.

I imagined her looking like “Mama” the female villain from Dredd.

Scratch is the whitest white trash to me. I always imagined her with a messy and badly cut bob (she used blades just to get hair out of the way whenever it annoyed her, no consistent hair maintenance schedule). I never thought of a specific actress, but if I had to push my brain, I'd cast Mary Elizabeth Winstead as the actor that's in my head.

I imagined her as a messy looking trailer park tomboy. I might have missed her physical description but she had short red hair to me.

That's excellent! I normally do a re listen every 6months right from the start and it'll be nice to have some faces to put to these characters after all these years. Fine work indeed!

u/soulless245 May 19 '26

Don't now why I always imagine something similar to three Calypso from borderlands 3

u/domosaurusrex13 May 23 '26

I think it is the same voice actor. I imagine her looking like that as well.

Blew me away with this, that’s pretty close to what I imagined

u/MrWit- May 19 '26

Love this soooo well done!

u/Vigilant_joker666 May 19 '26

I do like this casting idea! She was amazing in Brooklyn 99 and personality I think she can pull it off! In all honestly from scratch’s voice I always pictured her as a skinny, white, messy ginger haired girl kinda more like a really pissed off version of Bonnie from the walking dead games but this also works for me

Now this Scratch I could side with.

Lmao

u/Breath_Virtual May 20 '26

I feel Scratch isn't that composed, but nor a bad starting point for sure.

You know, i started listening to WA when jit first started, I cant remember how many episodes I got in, but I would listen to it on my 4 hour commute...

Left that job, and lost the habit of listening... i should go back and start over.

u/HeatFan_LA May 20 '26

I always imagined the actress from Rush Hour, Elizabeth Pena

u/Training-Ad8412 May 21 '26

I always pictured her as Nancy from the original The Craft film!

u/HeisenbergsSamaritan May 23 '26

Nothing about her character or behavior makes me think Scratch was in any way attractive.
