Dawngate is (Was, technically) a title back from 2012 created by the ever-fantastic team that previously comprised Waystone Games. A world of wonder and tragedy, the vast lore from the comics, to the characters, to the gameplay itself provided so very much in its short lifespan, and gives life to the small audience it held to this day.
As a small work of passion, I'll be pushing to provide voices and audio to these in a manner similar to the above introductory video, though more specifically, the short audio linked below, or the various readings the game provided of its own accord.

Thank you for taking the time to look, and K4A.
EDIT: Bumping the pay for the Engineer. The morning coffee wore off, and I remembered why I only did short skits; so whoever picks up that slack deserves the extra cash.
EDIT 2: Added the Henj Barbarian role.
Ajaru-Su-Salimat is the child Faris is caring for primarily throughout this story. She's a designed prodigy, a human literally crafted to be a fantastic architect.
“I heard that! If Faris wasn’t here, I would kick you in your nethers!” (Excited, playfully angry)
“It makes my fingers all itchy inside, Faris. I got to finish. I need to.” (Anxious, pained, nervous.)
“How do they build those?” (Curious, blissfully ignorant)
One of the adults returning to collect their children from Faris.
“Now it’s us. A few years ago it was another pogram against the ottrekin. My mother said that when she was young, the Overlord back then vowed the destruction of rats. That’s just what the Henj have been like since… well, since they were Henj.” (Waiving a barbarian threat.)
One of the adults returning to collect their children from Faris.
“But now there’s this… zealotry. The Henj are far away. All the people outside the city talk about is Blood Shaping." (Worried, distraught)
“We need to get home before it rains.” (Straightforward, dismissive.)
“If we’d known how much this would hurt her, we never would have…” (Regret, guilt.)
To be assigned to editing the audio, adding appropriate effects, and other aspects of sound design.
Say something you think would fit
A Henjman that assaults the party in the second half of the story. I'm very much open to interpretation of how they'd sound, as there's no descript statement for their pitch.
For bonus points, a yelp of pain is advised, as this character loses and arm and a head very shortly after threatening Faris' charge.
"Jar-Spawn... Abomination, Unblessed. Soul-less.” " (Pure spite; absolute disgust. "As though assessing a cut of beef", as the author put it.)
“A mercy to put it down.” (Zealous; unmoving in the face of committing an atrocity. )
“Stone man. You’re as much a finger in the eye of the Spirits as this thing.” (Ever-slightly more respectful; still maintaining a notable hatred.)
