Fallout New Vegas Mod: Temu Jin
Project Overview
Temu Jin:
This is a companion mod addition to the Fallout New Vegas game. In addition to adding a fully capable companion, it adds a handful of small-to-medium length quests, as well as around half a dozen supporting roles.
The mod has been in Beta and being play tested, and we are now needing to fill the last handful of audio roles to finalize and publish.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Details and Requirements:
Supporting roles vary in length from 4-80 lines of dialogue. You are welcome to audition for multiple roles if you'd like, and if you do, there is a chance you will be cast for more than one role.
Must have a decent recording setup. I am not super picky when it comes to mic quality, but something somewhat professional sounding with no background noise. All audio files must be submitted as mono 16-bit .wav files in 44100Hz.
There are a handful of human roles, as well as a few "ghouls", which are heavily irradiated humans. Because of this beyond-advanced radiation sickness, their voices are extremely horse and raspy. Here is an example of what they typically sound like in-game.

Latest Updates
-
Added three new drug Fiend roles, two male and one female.
Just a typical Ghoul panhandler, begging in Freeside. Because of his poor treatment from society, he's not too nice to passers by.
[Slightly annoyed that someone is bothering you, you're already reduced to begging. Smoothskin is a slur towards normal humans, since there is quite a bit of mistreatment by them towards ghouls]
What do you want, smoothskin?
[The player asks you what you will do in exchange for the money you're begging for. You refuse to sink any lower in self-shame.]
What, you want me to perform for your scraps like a dog? Begging and living in squalor is plenty demeaning enough, thanks. Now can you help or not?
[Standard greeting you give to everyone that passes. Caps are the currency in the game, equivalent of asking for spare change.]
Hey, got any spare caps?
A basic trader in game. He's a ghoul, and that comes with certain... prejudices. The town he lives in treats him just like everyone else, but travelers sometimes consider and treat him as a second-class citizen. He's very sarcastic, but he's also a business man, so while he pokes fun at others, he doesn't push them too far to the point where he might lose a sale.
[The player asks what you do in town, you're just here to make money selling scrap.]
Can't tell you much more than that. I just run the shop here. Looking to buy anything?
[Someone assumed you were extremely old, based on your "ghoul" condition. Not angry per-say, just slight irritation. This probably happens often.]
Listen asshole. I'm not one of those ancient pre-war zombies, I'm only 80 years old. World was already well-passed shit-o-clock by the time I turned.
[Completely sarcastic, mocking the question, slightly annoyed that someone is asking stupid questions rather than buying your merchandise.]
You want to gossip? Well, I did hear that Old Lady Gibson might have a crush on the NCR ranger! Tee hee.
Look, if you don't need something specific, can we get back to the buying and selling part of this conversation?
This is a female ghoul scavenger, exploring the wasteland. You're a capable traveler. Kind hearted, but have to keep your guard up in the dangerous wastes. There will be an opportunity for this to develop into a larger role down the line, with pay as well.
[You never know who is going to attack you on site, so when two strangers approach, you want to make sure they know you're friendly]
Don't shoot, I'm not a threat. Just out here seeing what I can find.
[Someone called you a scavenger, rather than the preferred term of "prospector". Still, they seem nice enough, so you correct them politely. This could still be a pleasant conversation, which is better than most interactions out in the wasteland]
I'm a prospector, thanks. Not that I haven't been called worse. At least you called me ghoul, and not some other name...
[Someone suggested you had an edge in "prospecting", since you are more immune to radiation than "normal" humans, so you can go to places they can't. You hadn't really thought about it that way, but it still has it's dangers.]
I suppose so, from time to time. All that radiation isn't too good for the brain though. And often times, there are plenty other dangers in store.
Walt is an egghead scientist, but he is part of a large and impressive raider tribe known as the Khans. Think of a post-apocalyptic biker gang almost. An odd pairing, but he fits in with the rest of his group by being their main source of income, creating drugs to sell. This is a callout to Walter White/Heisenberg from "Breaking Bad". Like his inspiration, Walt is cool and collected when delivering his lines and going about in his day to day duties.
[Not rude, but you have a lot of deadlines to keep up with, and really don't have time to spare on idle chit-chat]
Beg your pardon, but I'm very busy. Talk to the others if you're wanting to buy. I'm more into the science than the sales.
[People are often confused why an older scientist has banded together with a raider group, similar to that of a biker-gang style]
You think I don't have what it takes to be a Khan, huh? Think I'm a bit older and frailer than your typical raider?
My primary strengths do indeed lie elsewhere, and the others understand this. You could say that I am an... "honorary member" of the Khans.
It's tribal Darwinism at it's finest, and I appreciate being surrounded by such capable allies. Not that I don't bring something to the table too.
Add our combined distaste of the NCR and I fit in around here just fine.[Appreciating the science behind the creation of new drugs, focusing on chemical compounds. "Nerding out" slightly, admiring someone else's handywork]
It's actually quite elegant what he did. He has combined the stimulant properties of the nicotine with the polypeptides of the scorpion venom.
That combination reacts quite well when exposed to high heat whilst given the catalysts in the Bitter Drink mixture.
The process dissolves many of the more harmful effects, leaving you with an outcome not unlike that of the Cannabis plant, albeit very extreme.
Nephi is a Fiend leader in the base game who's dialogue was cut for a variety of reasons. I've reenabled the "vanilla" lines, as well as added some additional lines. The Fiends are a group of drug addicted raiders. Nephi is a lot more calm than most of the other Fiends, almost too calm. I feel he is sort of... bored of killing. But he still doesn't shy away from it. He's lived his glory days, and now he's more annoyed than anything else.
Here is a youtube video of the original voice actor from the game. Some of the lines seem a bit too lifeless and rushed, if it can be toned down just a bit. But definitely similar to the original if possible.
[Someone actually took your sarcasm for sarcasm. That doesn't happen too often. Slight respite to the normal idiots you have to deal with, but still, why is this annoying person talking to you? Should you kill them?]
Heh, you're quicker than some of the other dipshits around here, I'll give you that. Still, doesn't mean you're all that bright.
I mean, after all, you're here talking to me. If you were smart, you'd keep your distance. What the hell do you want, anyway?[Someone asked how many poor souls you've killed with your signature golf-club weapon. You're boastful, but also kind of board of the killing any more. See the link below for original actor's take. A bit more life than that, but not over the top on the quotes please.]
Huh? Oh, lots. More than any other Fiend - hundreds, maybe. Wham, bam, "oh god, my brains, you hit me in my brains." Easy as that.
[Someone is mistaking your anger for some deeper feelings. That's pathetic, there is nothing deeper. They're not really worth your energy to fight them, but if they piss you off any more, you might just let them pick a fight.]
What are you, some kind of shrink? Don't try to fuck with my mind, or I'll bash yours in.
