Final Fantasy IX / FFIX Fandub
Project Overview
(Update! Please Read)
Deadline : January 29th
1st Auditions are now Closed and I will be spending the next week finalizing casting. I will need to ask for your patience during this time.
Casting Notifications/Private Messages, should I send one your way, will mostly include a callback where I would like to ask for a live audition.
Should you not receive a message or notification by the end of next week (Feb 5th) means, unfortunately, you did not make the casting. Either by the following reasons of mic quality or perhaps the voice you portrayed within the audition was not what I was looking for. However, all auditions placed within this page were fantastic and I enjoyed listening to yours. There really could only be one person per role for this Fandub project.
For those who did not get casted, there will be more FFIX fandub auditions for other characters in the near future. If still interested, please stay tuned, for the next set of auditions will also be posted some time this week or next week. I hope to see you there!
Thank you all again for your time and effort for my FFIX fandub project. I was blown away by the amount of people who auditioned and I greatly appreciated all the variety of voices I had the fun chance to listen to. Regardless of whether you get casted here or not, you are all talented and hard working and I genuinely wish you all the very best on your endeavors.
Take care and stay safe. Hope you have yourselves a fantastic rest of the week.

Main Character : Black Mage
A true cinnamon roll, and although very shy and easily scared he has a voice that he uses for all the right reasons and the bit of courage he finds within and from his friends. (Although very young, he is one of the most emotionally complex characters)
"I was so scared... I didn't know what to do. They asked me, 'Why were you outside?' and then they said,'The cargo ship isn't even here yet.' I didn't know what they were talking about, so I didn't say anything..."
Vivi's inner thoughts before he speaks up -
(Oh, there's gonna be a lot of animals.) "It sounds like fun! Thank you!"
“I hate Kuja a lot. But I hate Brahne a lot, too... ...so much that I wanted this to happen to her. I should be happy, but... Once I saw Dagger start to cry, I didn't know how I should feel. I kind of wanted to cry, too…”

Main Character : A Royal Knight of Alexandria & Captain of the Pluto Knights
A man of undying loyalty to the Queen, the Princess, and the People of Alexandria!!! - although the enthusiasm for this mindset frames him as a simpleton in the eyes of others, he is the epitome of chivalry.
"I must tighten up security around the castle from now on! Dusk to dawn, rain to shine, I must patrol the castle! Right, clear! Left, clear! Huh? It's a piece of paper... This looks like a letter. Let's see..."
"The conductor said we'll be arriving at the Summit Station soon. Prin... Ahem... Miss Dagger? She's sleeping... -Steiner begins to think to himself- (The princess believes what she heard about Queen Brahne. Queen Brahne would never start a war... It's all a misunderstanding. She will see that when she talks to the queen. ...I need not concern myself with such matters. My only mission is to protect the princess.)
- Searching every corner of the room for the Princess. You will also say Princess +1,000 times through the series ^^; -
"Princess... Princess! Princess...? PRINCESS!!!? Princess?"

Leader of Tantalus : Theater Troupe / Band of Thieves
Adoptive father of Zidane and Bandit Leader of Tantalus, Baku is a badass but he never lets it get to his head. Always looking out for his boys, it’s a no brainer to why they all follow him in stride. He’ll have his serious moments but he can also be a very jolly and easy going gruff man.
Baku: "Yeah, but what are we gonna do about the wounded?"
Zidane: "We can take 'em with us."
Baku: "How are we gonna carry all of them? Trust me. We go out now, and we'll all get wasted. My boys come before the princess, you know. It's too bad..."
"You got a big heart, unlike that knucklehead, Steiner. No wonder the women are runnin' the show here. Gwahahaha!"
(Does this often): "A-CHOO!"
"Gwahaha! I didn't ask you why! I can't blame you, though. She's damn beautiful. I guess that's reason enough! Well, I hope you're ready! 'Cause I'm gonna bust you up for breakin' the rules."

“Oof, too old for this.”
-- Gets Hit/ Injured--
“Hahahah, that tickles.”
Member of Tantalus : Theater Troupe / Band of Thieves
Tries to be the smooth cool head guy of the group, leaving the literal monkeying around to Zidane. Quick witted, Blank will have moments of being impulsive and reckless, especially for his brothers in Tantalus, but loves stating how it all worked out accordingly once they make it through the rough and tough. (A closer Bro to Marcus)
"Sheez... Why do you always gotta play hero? The boss is gonna kill you. Well, what are you waiting for? Go talk to the boss."
"Why don't you get your mind off girls for a second? This is the medicine I gave to that black mage and the knight. It's sort of like a seed remover."

Phrases of the Following Actions:
-- Attacks--
“Come on!”
-- Missed Hits--
“Uh- .. I meant to do that.”
-- Gets Hit/ Injured--
“Ugh! I'm fine, heh. You think a scratch would bother me?”
Member of Tantalus : Theater Troupe / Band of Thieves
Although a little on the gruff side, he’s observant and cares a lot for Tantalus. He also shows a more laid back side around his Bro, Blank, and most likely holds a lot of pride in his acting skills in “I Want to Be Your Canary.”
(“I Want to Be your Canary” Play - Just watched his beloved step into the killing strike meant for her father and be killed herself)
"What have I done!? Am I never to hear her loving voice again!?Am I cursed never again to feel her soft touch!? O, cruel fate! Thou hast robbed me of all I treasure!""...It's all thanks to our bro, who pointed out the river before he took the map to Zidane. What do we do now, Boss? We gotta save our brother..."

Phrases of the Following Actions:
-- Attacks--
“Take that!”
-- Missed Hits--
“Damn it...”
-- Gets Hit/ Injured--
“Ugh! Don't worry about me. I'm fine.”
Member of Tantalus : Theater Troupe / Band of Thieves
The only female member in Tantalus she is a real sweetheart but can have quite the temper that strikes fear into nearly all the men of the group. She’s also not to underestimate, when left behind by the group, she opened up a rather established mini theater.
"Whoa! Whut in tarnation!? Hold yer horses, there! Whut kinda cattle you chasin', darlin'? You should at least say yer sorry!"
"Oh, what a sweetie! I like you even more! We'll get rollin' in a minute. Sit wherever you want."
"Alright, cowboys! Zidane... You ain't comin', are ya? That's awright, darlin'. Come on over whenever you want. Let's go, boys!"
Villain & Queen of Alexandria (Minor Role for now - Picks up a stronger presence later)
Consumed by the luxury of greed, she cares little for her daughter, Princess Garnet. Impatient and blind for power, it’s hard to believe why Garnet & Steiner would want to save this evil woman.
(Weeping) "Oh, my! This year's show is splendid! Waaaaaaa! Why did she have to die!? Why!?" (Now, where could Garnet be?) "Boo-hoo-hoooo!!!"
"Oh... Well, no wonder you look so concerned. That is far from the truth, Garnet. You see, those Burmecian rats have been planning to destroy Alexandria for some time. I couldn't just wait for them to attack and destroy our precious kingdom. So, I had no choice but to take the initiative."
"Yes! This is it! Hahaha! With this, I can finally... ...No. I need one more! I must get the last jewel! Beatrix! Go find the last jewel!”
Royal Knight of Alexandria (Minor Role for now - Picks up a much stronger presence later)
Like Steiner, her loyalty is completely to Alexandria. But unlike Steiner, her pride has been corrupted by a merciless sense of duty. She is good at her job and has unquestioningly followed orders. Just how far will she go?
"Black mages, our work here is done. Commence withdrawal immediately!
"...There's no difference between them and me. We're all just blindly following orders. My heart and my will mean nothing... Maybe Steiner was right..."
"Ha ha ha. I've never been so humiliated in my life. I once killed a hundred knights single-handedly... To me, you two are nothing more than insects."

Exp:
“Pathetic!”

“Ugh! What?!”
“Agh! - heh, I didn’t feel a thing.”
Prince of Burmecia : Relatively Minor role but does make a reappearance here and there.
Puck can actually be a real punk at times, but he is a friend to Vivi and he has his moments where he looks out for people.
“Come on! Get over here! Lemme guess... You're afraid of heights, aren't you? It's okay! Just pretend you're on the ground! Come on, already! We're runnin' outta time!”
"C'mon, you deadweights! Hustle!"
(Be expected to work with the voice of Thorn)
Annoying evil clown minion, nuff said. Just kidding. Zorn is always with Thorn, and even though their phrasing is opposite to the other, there are times they speak in the same rhythm (reason to partnering with Thorn).
Zorn: "We are in trouble!"
Thorn: "Trouble we are in!" (Said at the same rhythm, one right after the other)
Thorn: "The right way, that is not!"
Zorn: "I know it is not the right way!"
Thorn: "Really, do you?"
Zorn: "I really do!"
Thorn: "Wonder, I sometimes do."
Zorn: "N-Now is not the time to wonder!"
Thorn: "Hurry to Queen Brahne, must we!"
Zorn: "We must hurry to Queen Brahne!"
(Gameplay Battle Grunts & Phrases)
Phrases of the Following Actions:
-- Critical Hits--
“You are foolish!"
-- Missed Hits--
“Something is not right!”
-- Gets Hit/ Injured--
“Ugh! How dare you!”
(Be expected to work with the voice of Zorn)
As explained in Zorn’s description, Thorn works closely with Zorn, and there are a number of times they speak in unison. Now, as Zorn speaks plainly, Thorn speaks Yoda style of sentencing That whole opposite manner but without the elderly wisdom tone. Still an annoying evil clown.
Zorn: "We are in trouble!"
Thorn: "Trouble we are in!" (Said at the same rhythm, one right after the other)
Thorn: "The right way, that is not!"
Zorn: "I know it is not the right way!"

Member of Tantalus : Theater Troupe / Band of Thieves
The most particular about things and a sort of, does his own thing kind of guy. But being with Tantalus keeps him on his toes and he appreciates the care and camaraderie of the group.
"Yeah. We've all got the devil's luck. But if we don't find Princess Garnet, we're all dead meat."
Cinna: "This springwater might make some good coffee! I'll get the fixin's!"
Baku: "Do I gotta remind you what happens to members who don't listen to their boss?"
Cinna: "N-NO! Please, not that! I'll bring everyone over right now!"

Squeaky cuddle cute voice and we should be good to go. This role does not include the moogles Stilztkin nor Artemicion.
"Wait! Kupo! I'm impressed, kupo! First time I've seen anyone escape from Evil Forest. You all must be strong, kupo! But don't get cocky, kupo. Lots of stronger monsters ahead. Before you go out to the world, Mogster will teach you a few things."
A lot of NPCs ^^; but a lot of them have just as much life and character as any other in the game. Please audition for NPCs especially if you have other bigger characters you'd like to audition for in this project.
