Looking for some lead voices for some of the characters of a Multiplayer Online Action RPG currently in early development. This is for a unannounced indie game currently being developed on Unreal Engine 4. Aiming for high standard, so recording quality must reflect as such. This audition is only for a short little vocal part (30 seconds) of teaser trailers and not indicative of all the other lines a little later we would request from you, which we would pay for as well. This is more as an introduction for these two interesting characters to players and giving some insight into the world of the game. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Good Luck!
Wraith (Real name Dyrus Simi) is a young man (29) of focused resolve and tireless ambition, seeking to understand the force that killed his comrades and find a way to avenge them. Pragmatic, but not cold hearted, Wraith assesses situations with an experienced eye to find the quickest and cleanest path to victory. While he doesn’t delight in the killing (and makes it a point to not kill needlessly), his humbling past and many years as a mercenary has numbed him to the sight of death.

Monologue: “We're always striving to leap forward. It's human nature, wishing to advance, to be better than what we were. But the problem is that, eventually, you lose sight of where you began.”
During Gameplay:
(Starting a match)<confident> “Get in, get out. They won’t even know I’m here.”
(Losing a match)<defeated> “And so...the Simi clan ends here...”
(Winning a match)<confident/hopeful> “Another step closer. Just hold on, everyone…”
During Combat:
(Approaching a damaged ally)<Alert/Reassuring> “Fall back and recover, I’ll take care of this.”
(Initiating stealth)<thinking/idealistic> “Time for a different approach.”
Ryder is the name of an automaton, and thus the voice for this role is the the voice of the individual piloting it remotely. The sound of his voice is good-natured by default, however the bluntness of his statements and light jokes can juxtapose his matter-of-fact and scientific way of approaching problems. A scientific engineer, he spends nearly all of his time in his workshop, and thus his jokes often come across as an anti-social young man attempting to socialize.

Monologue: “I’ve never quite understood the blissfully ignorant. It sounds terrible, being content only with what you know. Better to be burdened with the knowledge of a problem, then you can fix it.”
Gameplay lines:
(Starting a match)<charged up> “Beginning data collection.”
(Losing a match)<thinking/unimpressed> “I’ll make a note of that for the next model.”
(Winning a match)<quirky/funny> “I’ve gained everything I can here. Farewell.”
Combat lines:
(Multikill)<confident yet questioning> “Have I reached the perfect design? No...not yet…”
(All enemies killed)<questioning> “Perhaps this model was too effective.”
Luna is incredibly friendly, treating you as though you are a close friend right from the start. (Age 21) She can even be a bit overwhelming to those who are especially introverted, and views your lack of knowledge about the world as something that can be cured with social interaction. We wouldn't say Luna is borderline annoying or over the top, but she feels genuine when she is having a conversation with you.
She secretly acts this way because she has a huge burden placed upon her due the lost of a close family member that she is trying to find. This person isn't dead, but is seemingly running away from Luna and his family. Luna lost one of her arms when she was younger, but since then now has a special augmented prosthetic arm allowing her even more flexibility in combat. Blessed as the leader of her Clan, she has been given the power of Moonlight, allowing her to call upon it to heal and protect her allies and smite her enemies. While not fully confident in her ability to lead her clan, she's confident in her battle prowess. Agile, Athletic, Destined for something greater, Luna is a beacon of light in a world where not a lot of light is left.
<conversational/giving advice> "If you lose hope, why fight at all? I’m not done fighting yet."
Gameplay Lines:
(Respawning)<deep breath> " Keep it together, everyone's looking to you..."
(Winning a match)<Excited/Reaffirming> "Did you see that? This just might work!"
(Starting a match)<warmed up/excited> "No sad faces! We'll win this, I know we will!"
(Losing a match, falling to a knee)<disappointed> "I knew it.. I wasn't good enough..."
(Talking to Ryder)<conversational/playful/begging> "Come on, please open the door? Let's talk about it over some ramen." pause, door opens "Works every time."
Looking for a stand out voice perfect for some marketing pieces for the game. Should sound pleasing and charismatic with a sense of charm and mystery.

<Storytelling> The balance of the world, and the two gods who oversee it, have been frozen in time, a consequence of their own quarreling.
<Storytelling> A land of Mysticism and steel against steel, advanced technology has changed the once traditionalist society, thrusting it into a great technological revolution.
<Storytelling> Now in the world’s darkest moments, the only hope for the future is the Samurai
