Early Alpha MMO | Solo Dev
Project Overview
I am solo developing an original fantasy action MMORPG in Unreal Engine 5. The project is currently in an extremely early stage of development with core gameplay systems still actively being built. (This is a long-term passion project, and so I will be reposting until I find the best possible fit. If you’ve auditioned before feel free to do so again if you’d like!)
The current needed roles are:
Male Playable Character
The male playable character will require combat vocalizations, dodging, damage reactions, death animations, emotes, emotional reactions, and other gameplay-related vocal performances. Depending on the final character design, things may change.
Female Playable Character
The female playable character will require combat vocalizations, dodging, damage reactions, death animations, emotes, emotional reactions, and other gameplay-related vocal performances. Depending on the final character design, things may change.
Female Adventurer’s Guild Receptionist
The Adventurer’s Guild Main Receptionist will be one of the first voiced NPC Characters. She will welcome players, explain guild services to newcomers, provide information, congratulate player progression, deliver quest information related to the quest chosen by the player, possible tutorial specifics, and story related dialogue. This role is expected to be involved substantially more in dialogue than the main playable characters.
The expected maximum pay rate for each role goes as follows: Female Playable Character $500, Male Playable Character $500, Female Adventurer’s Guild Receptionist $1500. Payment will happen after an agreed price is set and work for hire contract is signed. Afterwards work requested will be in batches. Please keep in mind that if you're looking to join the project based on the potential pay, you will not be selected. I am a SOLO developer and will always prefer to work with those genuinely interested.
If I’ve left out anything important or if you have any questions related to the role or project, feel free to message me. Thanks. :]

Voice Actor
This is a lead role with a high volume of dialogue. The ideal VA must have good availability and a willingness to maintain close, consistent communication with the developer (me) throughout the development stage to ensure character consistency and world building.
The guild receptionist is going to play a strong role in the game surrounding both beginner and veteran players helping them along the way to accomplish their everyday daunting quests. This role will likely have a LOT of dialogue. This NPC will be a hybrid of possible combat lines, emotes and a lot of every day dialogue that will help and communicate to adventurers throughout the game.
Personality - This character's personality will be young, kind, sunny, bright, uplifting and empathetic. She should always look forward and feel delighted to help anyone in need. She will feel worried for the weak and inexperienced, and more at ease for the strong adventurers when interacting with them.
Vocal Age focus: 18-22 (Young Adult)
Please note, I will have to heavily screen each VA auditioning for this role.
The project is VERY early in development. There is currently no rush to fill the role due to the project's state. Development may take months before work is required.
Please have multiple variations of each line. Feel free to improvise if you'd like. The more sample data I have, the better. :]
The flat rate is the maximum allotted budget for this role. See pay/contract details of the role for more info. If you have any questions, send me a message.

(Smiling and professional) "Please bring back the magic stones or the ears of the monsters as proof of completion."
(Empathetic, caring and hopeful) "We lost some good people today... but seeing you standing here gives me hope. Keep surviving, okay?"

Voice Actor
This is the main playable human female character. Because players craft their own story, this voice must be versatile. I’m looking for an actor who can deliver lines with natural authenticity, making every player’s choice feel earned and immersive.
Please keep in mind that because it's an MMO with the intention of your own story, the main playable character will be a semi-silent protagonist, so a SFX Only Character. (In other words it will most likely have no spoken words/dialogue) <- Pay attention please.
Vocal Age focus: 18-28 (Young Adult/Mature Adult)
Try to maintain a neutral, balanced, highly relatable pitch that fits multiple character classes (For ex. A Warrior, Rogue, Noble, Trader, Traveler, Crafter, Mage, Healer).
Prepare to have different takes for the range of a young adult to mature adult.
If you need reference material, I would recommend taking a look at combat attacks in games like Black Desert Online, Final Fantasy 14, or other games within the MMO genre.
