Fallout The Frontier Rework Casting Call Round 4
Project Overview
What is Fallout The Frontier?
Fallout: The New Frontier is a rework of Fallout: The Frontier, a released, Fallout New Vegas New Lands Expansion Mod. It is a new adventure centered around a conflict between the NCR Exiles, the Northern Legion, and the Crusaders in the snow-blasted remains of Portland Oregon. Featuring 2 major questlines, 60+ side quests, hundreds of new armors, weapons and items, and tens of thousands of lines of new voiced dialogue!

Following feedback, we are in the process of reworking the mod, from story adjustments to new quests and settlements. With fundamental changes and additions to the mod, such as the main quest content available, new voice acting will be needed. Some of which will be regarding completely new characters, while others will involve characters who appeared in Legacy whose VAs we are no longer in contact with.
Requirements for Auditioning Voice Actors:
We are currently looking for 18 years of age or older voice actresses and actors with at least a standalone mic (XLR mic preferred, no headset mics), a fair amount of voice acting or real-life acting experience (ideally a demo reel), with proper sound proofing.
Instructions for Auditioning Voice Actors:
We request that all VAs who are interested are also able to communicate and send/receive files through Discord servers and DMs. On Discord, you will be communicating with me (@ACTIONFIGHTER11#2791) via DMs or the Frontier VA Server's public chat. If you are cast, you will receive your lines through discord along with recording instructions, deadline, accent specifications, character bios, and line directions.
If lines are not received in time and the team and I fail to get in touch with you after repeated messages, we will have to look into recasting. If you are cast and have any complications, please notify me via Discord DMs as soon as possible.
Non-human characters that require significant audio effects or modulation will have a special tag in their name. Pre - Existing Fallout Franchise Characters that require voice actors who can impersonate the original voice files from the Fallout games they appear in will have a (Needs Impersonator) tag next to their name. Non-human characters include ghouls, robots, and super mutants. Any filters involved like gas masks or power armor helmets will not need to be done by voice actors or be added to the audition files. We mention them just as a reference for your own convenience. Unless we specify a specific accent, all characters, no matter what species, are to have the regular North American accent.
Additionally, some finer details of the rework writing is still in flux, which means certain characters from those parts of development may receive more lines to record after the initial script sending.
You should record all 3 audition lines included for each character. For each audition line, submit only one take. Be sure to follow the scene context and line instructions provided for the audition line. You should be recording through an audio recording software like Audacity or Adobe Audition. You should export and submit your audition as a .wav file (48 khz, 16 bit rate, mono). You do not need to limit yourself in the number of characters you audition for. In some cases, we go ahead and cast a voice actor for more than one role, if we can ensure each character sounds different enough from each other.
Once the deadline date is reached for a certain batch of characters, we will no longer accept more auditions for the specified roles within that batch. Over the next week or so, we will go over the submitted auditions and cast our characters.
CCC will automatically send you a message if you get cast. Additionally, we will send a private message to your CCC profile containing information on how to join a discord server where voice acting for the Frontier is managed. If there are any complications preventing that, please respond to our private message as soon as possible and we will work out solutions with you.
Final Message for Auditioning Voice Actors:
For those that audition and don’t make the cut, don’t lose heart as there are more characters to be up for grabs on future rounds of casting. If you'd like to follow future casting rounds for this project, please PM me on CCC; future rounds will be hosted on different casting call pages.
Best of luck! I look forward to hearing your great auditions!

Theo is a member of the Enclave cell in the Frontier. Originally tasked with helping track down remnants of pre-war military caches, he was asked to leave the Enclave due to a lack of respect for authority. He comes across as sociopathic with little regard for others safety. He is found in an old pre-war satellite station attempting to track down an elusive signal. He's in his early 30's and is otherwise weirdly pleasant to the player, and is happy for the player to lend a hand.

{Person asks you what it's like living in The Frontier} It's cold, it's miserable; sometimes I wish I had more than just the company of my robots. But it's not all bad.
(Shocked, angry} I have a bounty? Why would- It was that zombie, wasn't it? I knew he was a cheat!
(Scared, pleading for your life, possibly going to be killed} W-wait, I can explain! Don't kill me!
Pvt Barney "Goggles" is a drunk. After experiencing the loss of his entire squad to a Legion ambush, he sank into the bottle. Using every opportunity he can as an excuse to drink away his pain, he often wants to bring others around him into his self-destructive binges. When the player finds him, he's waiting on his friend and patrol partner Pvt. Novak to arrive at the Wasted Angel to drink with him (which he has already started) and asks the player to find him.

{plastered, slurring words}Uhh... Hey, Novak... fuckin' took ya long enough. I sh-tarted drinking withoutcha.
{Slightly Sober}The fuck he did, you motherfucking lying scav. You killed him, didn't you! I knew I shouldn't've trusted you!
{Drunkenly hums the chorus of "Barney Google"} *Hums*
Pvt Novak is Barney's friend that's more and more seeing himself as Barney's drinking partner than anything else. He is sick of Barney and his drinking and wants moved from the same patrols so he can stop being Barney's crutch to lean on when he binges. He has begun to reconsider following Barney to the bar, but his reluctance and clumsiness has landed him into deadly situation with several pre-war robots that the player needs to save him from and possibly convince him that his friend's drinking is self-destructive coping rather than laziness.

{groggy, waking from knocking yourself out}What? Who are you? What happened?
{You're greeting the person that saved you} The name's Novak. I don't think anyone else would've found me before I died. Guess you're one of the good scavs.
{screams of agony, set on fire}
Likai is a Defender of Shanghai, a tribe of descendants of the pre-war population of Chinatown in Portland, that is an expert in plumbing maintenance and water systems. He ensures that the water around the Wasted Angel is always flowing. Due the NCR commandeering his pump station and changing its flow, feral ghouls have now infested the pump station, stopping him from fixing what the NCR broke. He can speak some mandarin. American accent.

{Person asks what you think of the Frontier} P-town kinda sucks ass. Everything wants you dead, from the weather, the animals and most of the people. Do miss the {Dìxià}("underground") a lot lately. {longingly}It's home.
{Person asks what you think of the NCR in The Frontier} {sarcastically}Bringers of democracy. Of course you have no choice, or they {Kai qiang dadao ni}("gun you down"). Disagreement is death with them.
{Person asks why you don't like the Frozen 41st, a rival tribe that your tribe despises} Bunch of bao boys. Fascist old world {Yi tuó gou shi}("piece of shit"). They kill and take, just like the NCR and Legion.
Osci (short for Oscillator) is a retired Riveter, a tribe of mechanic and tech experts around Portland, working on his masterpiece hotrod. Living out of an old gas station by the Wasted Angel, he spends his spare time helping out other scavs with his expertise in mechanics. He gets along with most despite the reputation of the Riveters as being stingy. He tasks the player with a job to help get them back on their feet (and to free up some time for him).

{Person asks if there are other Riveters nearby} Nope, Riveters are mostly across the {Will-am-ette}Willamette south. There's some up north going at it with the War Bastards, but I'd give that mess a wide berth.
{Person fails at trying to convince you to give them a car for free. You mock them for thinking they could sweet-talk you} {Laughing}Hah, ah. Holy shit... Oh, Gaileon... {Riveter slang that has the same contextual use as God - like 'oh, god'}that's a good one. {Serious}You'll get paid what its worth - you're lucky I'm even asking you, bud.
{frustrated with trying to repair a radio, you've done everything to fix it}Damn radio! hard to work without something to drown out the noise.
