Arknights Side Story Dub (Darknights Memoir + More)

Project Overview

What is this?

This project is a fandub of the award-winning gacha game, Arknights. This game has some of the best storytelling in the entire genre, but the official anime is unlikely to cover all of the branching paths in the story. This dub is meant to serve as a way to increase accessibility for some of our fan-favorite side stories, starting with Darknights' Memoir!

The official deadline for submitting auditions is December 7th.

Please read all of the following before auditioning!
  • Absolutely NO AI. Thank you.

  • Submissions may be formatted in AAABBBCCC.

  • You must have a mic. USB/XLR doesn't really matter, but good audio quality will always make a better impression. Keep in mind some roles will require emotional/loud deliveries, and peaking will almost certainly disqualify your audition - but do not forgo emotional impact for the sake of slightly better audio quality.

  • No slating, outtakes, or shenanigans, but improvising for tone is encouraged.

  • A Discord account is required for contact and communication.

  • Many roles that are cast for these characters are likely to also be asked to voice side characters. Similarly, people cast as Extras for this chapter may be prioritized for future roles and characters.

  • In the same vein, please be aware that this may be a long-term project, depending on public interest. I will try to keep the project as condensed as possible, but dropping out may have significant impacts on the timeline of release. If you must, please try to do so when you're not working on a script.

  • Have fun! The primary aim of this project is to draw more attention to the immersive world of Arknights and bring some more fans into the project. This will eventually be uploaded to my YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/@notchocolatte

Role assigned to: shucaisan

About:

An Infected Sarkaz mercenary leader with a past muddied by war. She inherited the title "W" from the slaughtered companion of Ines and Hoederer. She has a disagreeable temperament, only joining Rhodes Island after defecting from Reunion, though her history with the pharmaceutical company is complicated and strained. W is an expert with originium-based explosive weapons, with cruelty and insanity etched in her bones. She's also deeply loyal to her King. In pursuit of her vengeance, W is willing to go to any lengths to free her people.

  • (Mocking) Can't you come up with something new, Doctor? Other than this useless little garbage? Why don't you, say— have Kal'tsit sing me a song? Or if that's not sincere enough, you could join in, gimme a duet?

  • (Skeptical, almost wondering) She looked so naive. It wasn't the look of a leader at the head of one of the armies in our cruel war... Is naive the word...? You don't have eyes like that when you're naive... Such... sad eyes.

  • (Crazed) You've got until 'three' to surrender. THREE!

Role assigned to: Milica Radovanović

About:

Former Sarkaz mercenary who worked with Hoederer and the former W during the Kazdel war, though her official race is undisclosed. She is a cold and enigmatic professional, a polar opposite to W, despite their extended companionship. Aside from those, her only relationship is with the shadows, her Arts allowing her to read a person's shadows to glimpse who they truly are.

  • (Imposing) A lesson for you: If you want to live a little longer, don't put all your eggs in one basket. Every Sarkaz mercenary carries a sword.

  • (Disgusted, then calling to someone far away) Tch... I forgot you were always a lunatic. Don't get the Sarkaz on your team killed with you!

  • (Defeated) ...Haha. It looks... just like that old place... with all the shadows weaving together...

Role assigned to: Ned

About:

An Infected Sarkaz mercenary who worked with Ines and the former W. He is tortured with the weight of all that he has seen and done, yet still clings onto his hopes for the future. Hoederer's somber, serious nature comes from a history of fighting for survival at any cost, but he still takes time to educate himself on the history of his people in the hopes of passing it down to the future generation upon achieving true liberation.

  • (After a promotion) I don't need these, Doctor. But if you insist on some sort of reward... you think I could teach a class to the children here in my free time? No, not to teach military history. I just want to share with them... some Sarkaz folk songs.

  • (Wearily) I want to get away from this war. I'm sick of fighting our own people... and we've already suffered enough.

  • (Imposing) You give off the stench of conspiracy and war. A stench that is all too familiar– If Ines was here, that's definitely what she'd say.

Role assigned to: Erin Kress

About:

One of the high-ranking administrators of Rhodes Island and the head of the Medical Department, Kal'tsit is an extraordinarily accomplished scientist in countless academic disciplines. She is aloof and has difficulty expressing emotions, but is extremely self-sacrificing to protect those around her. In the aftermath of Babel's fall, Kal'tsit becomes very hostile towards the Doctor, but eventually manages to lay down her guard to fight a greater threat together. She has a bio-mechanical weapon called Mon3tr (Monster) to aid her in combat.

  • (Idle chat) Amiya has left to eat with the young Operators. She is a child too, and you should accompany her well. These lands has no mercy on the basis of age, but children will always be our unvarying hope. I very much admire this notion of... a certain someone's.

  • (Factual, angry) When you regain your memories, you will have the opportunity to scrutinize the choices you made. Yet even if you repent your sins or your memories are actually lost forever, you cannot change the way I see you.

  • (Slightly mocking) Much of what you do is rife with immaturity, and you let your emotions get the better of you. If you were a little older, I would indeed make a mockery of you.

About:

  • (Wistful) The warriors already have too much on their plates for such frivolity... I would quite like it if you all would smile.

  • (Slightly teasing) It only took a moment before I thought to hide this letter in your office desk. If you were not sitting down to reminisce in peace, I'm sure you wouldn't find this letter.

  • (With conviction) Hopefully, the visions that I've seen will... No, rather, as long as we can still see, let us move forward a bit.

About

There are hundreds of characters in Arknights, and I can only cast a handful of them here (for my sanity). If there is a character that you would like to voice that's not listed here, you can send in your demo reel and I can add you to my list of talents I will reach out to in the future for roles both major and minor! I am likely to cast you for multiple roles at once, so please keep that in mind!

If you don't have a demo reel, you may use any of the Operator voice lines in Arknights to submit an audition. 


Please put the name of the character you would like to voice for in your audition submission, or if you'd like a major role or a minor role. Please note that I may reach out to you to voice a different character if I think your voice fits them better. 


Additionally, if you are willing to voice children, monsters, or elderly people, or if you speak other languages, please include that in your audition.
