Welcome to the casting call of the Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Twitter AU Fandub! My plan for this project will be a simple, one shot video for the whole thread, made by twitter user @conradluvr69, that starts on this tweet here. All lines here will be taken directly from the thread itself, unless otherwise stated. Some of the jokes featured aren't the most safe for work, so keep that in mind when auditioning.
RULES
1: Have good enough mic quality. Because this isn't anything professional, and is strictly for a quick joke video, something around Blue Snowball quality with minimal background noise should be good.
2: While I do have references for each character lined up, if you have a different take on the character from what's "canon," you should go with that if you feel it adds to the character!
3: I personally recommend having multiple takes of each line given, as you can show different inflections and emotion with each line.
4: Make sure you have a Discord, as all communication will be done through the platform.
5: Most importantly, have fun! Don't stress too much on trying to be perfect as these roles, all you need is some good acting to keep the video humorous!
As a note, Lukas, while in the threads, isn't on the page, due to the fact that I am self-casting for him. Everyone else is fair game, however!
One of two main characters/lords of Shadows of Valentia. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Alm is a kind-hearted yet naïve young man who has a strong sense of justice and subtly idealistic morals. He has a strong sense of obligation, wanting to leave Ram Village to help the people of Zofia when he heard about the outbreak of thieves, famine, and the aggression of the Rigelian Empire for the past few years. His sense of justice is rather black-and-white, as he is quick to blame individuals for a number of follies in situations he does not necessarily have the full context to. He has a vaguely puerile sense of humor, as he loves to make puns, and is a terrible dancer.
Alm's english voice is Kyle McCarley. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0
"Meeting up with Lukas, Foreskin, and Python later today! Pumped!"
"Camera turned on by itself. I'm not a model, I swear."
The second main character/lord of Shadows of Valentia. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Celica is a kind and polite person, who is often bold yet refined, but she holds herself back emotionally to an extent after a series of traumatic events and familial loss; as a result, she can come off as cold and stoic, and normally maintain a aura of polite distance, as shown her body language in cutscenes and sprites, which is subtly guarded and closed-off. She usually regrets showing her raw emotions, especially in the rare moments that she lashes out in anger, bitterness, or even sentiment. Celica feels the need that she has to set aside her emotional candor in order to fulfill her responsibilities as royalty."
Celica's english voice is Erica Lindbeck. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM
You are so brave, thank you for sharing.
"What do you mean, 'You think...?'"
One of the first characters you meet in Shadows of Valentia.. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Gray has an easygoing, chatty, and sometimes aloof personality. He comes from a merchant family and therefore is knowledgeable of the world outside of Ram [Village]. He does not have much self-awareness, however, often barging into conversations and being unconscious of how his own words come off to other people. Gray asserts himself as the tacit "leader" of the villagers and is very confident in his abilities. In battle, he adopts a gung-ho personality which is evident in his quotes and animations. Gray has also been shown to non-maliciously make fun of Alm at times."
Gray's english voice is Max Mittelman. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=251
"Oh my god, don't tell me. You fucking capitalize EACH LETTER? Oh my god..."
"Out here fighting the good fight!"
One of the first characters you meet in Shadows of Valentia. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"While Tobin possesses a stubborn, serious, and direct personality, he is rather dense, being plagued with social obliviousness, and is poor at reading other people's emotions. Being the eldest of his family, Tobin maintains an air of brotherly warmth, playfulness, and kindness which inevitably transfers to his friends, those of whom he is extremely supportive of."
Tobin's english voice is Robbie Daymond. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=123
"You fucking liar. I've been trying to take this photo for hours, you ungrateful shithead."
"I... Think Gray and I are dating."
One of the first characters you meet in Shadows of Valentia.. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Due to his intellect and calm personality, Kliff found difficulty fitting in with the energetic children from the village, as he'd rather read instead, having a deep interest in researching and acquiring knowledge regarding history and magic. One such case being when Tobin approached him, getting irritated by his cheerfulness, amidst other things, to the point of dismay, and choosing to ignore him instead."
Kliff's english voice is Chris Patton. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=367
"You fucking idiot. I hate you so much. Pee is not stored in the balls."
"Kill the gods, and eat their flesh to rise above human chemicals into horrifying immortality."
One of the first characters you meet in Shadows of Valentia, as well as one of the few new characters brought into the game. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Despite [Faye's] feelings for Alm being her main characteristic, she does care for other people, like her other childhood friends from Ram Village, her family that she regularly sends letters to and is a very selfless girl. However, she is a bit uncomfortable talking to people she has not known for long, as shown in her support conversations with Silque. These supports depict her as standoffish initially, though she does apologize later when she realizes that she misses Silque's presence and wants to be her friend."
Faye's english voice is Amber Connor. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=492
"The screenshots below showcase his toxic behavior toward his girlfriend and his cousin. Please, under no circumstance, interact with this person."
"OP is literally into vore, but go off, I guess."
Forsyth is the green half of the typical red/green duo archetype found in most Fire Emblem games. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"With a straight forward attitude and very passionate about fighting in the Deliverance, Forsyth sees Clive as his role model as a knight and he likes to imitate his grandiose and uncommoner-like speech. However, before his friends, he’s a simple man from a humble town. Despite sometimes resenting his childhood friend Python’s wishy-washy nature and not being able to understand his apathy, the two of them were reliable comrades on the battlefield."
Forsyth's english voice is Chris Cason. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=1339
"I have rescinded all callouts of Python, AKA @SEXHAVER_69! "
"Delthea doesn't lie! She is a child!"
Python is an early game archer in Alm's route in Shadows of Valentia. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"In contrast to Forsyth, Python tends to view the world from a cynical angle and leans towards a more laid back stance on life. This often gets him in trouble with the other Deliverance members, who consider him lazy and apathetic. However, in his supports with Clive, he explains that his attitude is due to the army needing someone like him who is approachable, as the others are far too serious and intimidating to the new recruits."
Python's english voice is Doug Erholtz. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=1203
"Delthea told the Deliverance I was dead for ten minutes, and I wish it was true."
"'@sexhaver69' was taken."
Clair is a Pegasus Knight in Alm's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki. [WARNING: CLAIR ONLY HAS ONE LINE, SO THE QUOTES HERE ARE TAKEN FROM THE GAME]
"A headstrong and fearless young noblewoman, Clair has an overbearing nature, which is her one big flaw, not that she pays it any mind. She is also a cheery and sociable individual who loves to interact with any and everyone. She values her impression on others and speaks in an extremely formal and often eccentric manner. In the past, she was somewhat childish and impetuous, and while she has matured since then because of the war, she misses the carefree days of the past."
Clair's english voice is Alexis Tipton. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=847
"Have you ever seen such physical perfection?"
"'Nothing will stop me."
A Paladin found in Alm's route, as well as a founder of the Deliverance. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki. [WARNING: LIKE CLAIR AND LUTHIER, MATHILDA ONLY HAS ONE LINE, SO THE QUOTES HERE ARE TAKEN FROM THE GAME]
"Mathilda is an extremely courageous, calm, and driven knight. As a result of her father's influence, she has very direct and sometimes vulgar speech mannerisms."
Mathilda's english voice is Caitlin Glass. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=1083
"Getting a little presumptuous?"
"Damn! Careless...I must withdraw. Fight well, my friends!"
Clive is a Paladin in Alm's route, as well as Clair's older brother. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Clive is a very mellow, kind, and calm individual, however, when the situation mandates for him to be serious and imposing, he is gravely so. He sees his fiancée, Mathilda, as his idol and inspiration and does not believe that he is worthy of her."
Clive's english voice is Grant George. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=954
"I believe in equal opportunity for all! However, there is a good reason we have a class system in place."
"What's vore...?"
"LESBIANS RUINED MY LIFE. Like if you agree."
A mage found in Alm's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Despite being naturally gifted with magic, Delthea is not interested in training her abilities, using it in Alm's group because she likes helping him, only to seal it after the war. She is bright and cheerful, though a bit of a selfish young girl. Constantly making fun of Luthier, her supports make it clear that she does love him and would like to be friends deep down, quick to defend him when Clair does the same."
Delthea's english voice is Christine Marie Cabanos. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=1591
"IS PYTHON DATING SIR LUKAS?"
"It's because you have a saggy ass."
A mage found in Alm's route, as well as Delthea's older brother. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki. [WARNING: LIKE CLAIR, LUTHIER ONLY HAS ONE LINE, SO THE QUOTES HERE ARE TAKEN FROM THE GAME]
"Fully devoted to mastering the family's traditional art of sorcery, he takes his training very seriously to the point of his younger sister's lack of interest in magic greatly frustrating Luthier as no matter how hard he trains, he will never reach the heights Delthea is capable of reaching."
Luthier's english voice is Brian Beacock. https://youtu.be/4tr3F08iwv0?t=1455
"Easy pickings."
"Only daily effort is rewarded with blessings."
A Mercenary found in Celica's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"A coarse seaman with a dry sense of humor, Saber frequently debates at Celica's orders and often calls her out on her idealistic nature, aware of the necessity of violence. Despite this, Saber shows loyalty to whoever employs him and although jaded in his views in contrast to Celica, Saber pledges his loyalty to her after the reveal of her identity, showing his willingness and desire to fight for her cause."
Saber's english voice is David Sylvain. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM?t=580
"How do I work this thing!? I fucking hate this system."
(Speak this one in a lifeless tone.) "FIND HOT DILFS IN YOUR AREA."
A Knight found in Celica's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki. [WARNING: VALBAR ONLY HAS ONE LINE, SO THESE QUOTES ARE TAKEN FROM THE GAME.
"Valbar believes in repaying his debts, and believes in living his life without regrets. He is also headstrong and always trying to help people with no regards of the consequences."
Valbar's english voice is Kyle Hebert. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM?t=722
"You're no better than pirates. And it just so happens I don't take kindly to pirates!"
"Was, uh...something supposed to happen just now?"
An Archer found in Celica's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"Leon has a pretty boy personality and sharp tongue, but he is an honest man that tells no lies. Leon has a nihilistic side, claiming he has desired to die in battle during his death quote in Gaiden; this is downplayed but still present in Echoes, where his death quote has him lament how his demise isn't as impressive as he thought it'd be.
In both versions of the game, Leon has a very close relationship to Valbar, describing him as his sworn brother and saying he will go wherever Valbar goes. In the remake, it is made clear Leon's attachment to Valbar is romantic, with Leon saying that women do not interest him and Valbar is all he needs, even if Valbar never notices Leon's love for him."
Leon's english voice is Lucien Dodge. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM?t=857
"I sucked a dick for bus fare, and then walked."
"I'm funny, cute, and weird. Follow for follow."
Another Mercenary found in Celica's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"[Kamui] has a carefree and easy-going personality and is a freedom-loving drifter who hates being tied down. In Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, it is shown that he has a deep fear of Necrodragons. His quotes also indicate that he likes money, and works as a mercenary to get it."
Kamui's english voice is Bryce Papenbrook. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM?t=996
"... I want Taco Bell."
"Luthier is outside my door yelling threats at me for swearing at his little sister."
An enemy witch, who you can recruit as a mage in Celica's route. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki. [WARNING: SONYA ONLY HAS ONE LINE, QUOTES FROM THE GAME.]
"Apparently burdened with an awful past that [Sonya] hates to talk about, [she] gives off a cool and unyielding personality and oozes womanly charm. However, internally, the feelings of hatred she hides are violent and tumultuous, and at the time when she faced off with Jedah, she fought against him as though venting her anger and fury."
Sonya's english voice is Tara Sands. https://youtu.be/6MsB4vZ0YnM?t=1907
"Naughty children. You ought never have made an enemy of Grieth. Still, this is mere business on my part. No hard feelings, I pray."
"That took effort, I must be slipping."
An enemy paladin, encountered in Alm's route, as well as another completely new character for Shadows of Valentia. The rest is a quote from the Fire Emblem Wiki.
"A noble general of Rigel, Berkut's father, who was Emperor Rudolf’s younger brother, died young. Being so timid as a child that even riding a horse would make him cry, his mother raised him strictly so that he would not be teased for being fatherless, and to become a man worthy of becoming the next emperor, until she also passed away before he reached adulthood. Viewing Emperor Rudolf as a surrogate father figure, he developed an interest in devoting himself to the military, in order to seize recognition for his deeds."
Berkut's english voice is Ian Sinclair. https://youtu.be/mspd1l2w_zo
"Moo. Cow screaming."
"I just sacrificed my wife to Lord Duma. Stan BTS."
