Shards Of Perihelion [ DEAD PROJECT. READ DESC ]
Project Overview
How did this project come into existence?
Back in November of 2016, I came up with an idea to make a project for a community I liked. It had characters based on the people I had met in the community. However, over the last 2 years and 3 months, the project has changed drastically, and now is not like my original idea. Instead, I have worked as hard as possible to make it what I now want it to be: A great RPG game that people can enjoy.
What IS Shards Of Perihelion about?
After the Catalyst Comet smashes, and a darkness having lurked for millenia is released, its up to Retzie and Gen, a former mercenary and a freedom fighter to gather their teams, uncover the truth behind the chaos caused by the gods, the war that was caused between the Rebellion and Solace, and end the conflict once and for all.
What do I need to know about the project?
First off, I will be handling auditions for VAs and tasks for all other roles after the deadline. I'm still in school as of right now, and as such, I'm extremely busy 9-5. When the deadline is over, I will have a few days where I can sort out roles and other such things.
Secondly, this project is primarily a revshare project. Due to a current lack of proper funding, this project cannot afford to pay each voice actor until the project is released and we receive revenue for that.
Finally, this project is made using RPG Maker MV, and will not rely on any stock assets. using original assets, music, everything basically. I wish to make a project people can enjoy, and I need your help to do that.
What do I do for my roles?
Artists: I have a few tasks for artists, to be specific, roles such as Character Design, Full Body Art, Promo Art, etc.
Musicians: I will hand out tasks when necessary, normally saying what I want the song to sound like, as well as providing a reference.
Writers: Help to write side interactions, events, and to check over my work on the main story lines.
Voice Actors: As a voice actor, you may have to choose 2 roles at least, with maybe a few minor roles that are for NPCs or minor characters.
NOTE: The prices listed do not count. I just can't change them properly.

Latest Updates
-
I won't be free until this time, so it's best I push it back to the weekend, where i'll be free to assign tasks and cast people.
-
3 days remain.
I will no longer be casting roles until the CCC is over. I have cast, so far: Tdcash as Syane Ray Casarez as a musician Daniela as Lulu/an artist (not cast as in on here, need to let other people audition since there's 4 spots) Crown as an artist (same as Daniela) Techno Dragon as Soshiro PippinTheGreat as Alain Fayl as Storm C_Squint as Lav Jaggerwocky as Snowy For now, please continue to submit any auditions. -
The final week.
Thanks for all your help! Hopefully this might grow a little bit as it gets closer to the end. We've been deciding on who to pick for each role and we'll be spending this week deciding. Auditions are still gonna be open, of course. If you have any auditions you like, and would want to see cast, please upvote them so we can see what you all think aswell. -
Thanks for all the help so far!
25 auditions is pretty good. Maybe you could all help out by spreading this around social media? In other news, Lulu is the only character who has been cast, due to Daniela's voice just fitting perfectly for the role. All others will be at the deadline unless a similar scenario occurs. -
Hey! Something you should all know.
While this project has been published, I will be consistently updating it with new characters. I mostly got the urgent roles done when publishing. Each day I add new roles, there will be an update. 09/02/2019: The following have been added. Alain (replacing Brody, I fucking forgot Brody had a voice.) Sofaria (Sofa) Syane Kizzy Sorrow (will be added) Xehon (Will be added) Zen (will be added) Lav (Will be added) Storm (Will be added)
Most of Retzie’s actions are driven by a sense of justice, and as such, he takes leadership of his team very seriously. He’s lived in Marin Village for years after working as a mercenary, and as such, while he may be calm on the exterior now, he is a trained warrior who still has a cold side.
Calm, with a middling voice. Not too low pitched but not too high pitched.
I'm here, I'm here! Has it arrived? (excited, out of breath, slightly shouting)
Wh-What? What was that? (shocked, worried)
Where else would I go? I'm with you the whole way. It may end short, but I don't want to hear the rest of this plan of his. (serious, determined)
Alpha is an 19 year old boy with a strange set of cat ears. He has had these since birth as a sort of deformation. Alpha is normally kind but can easily get angry when provoked. His voice has a slight deep tone to it. He met Retzie in person for the first time after travelling to Marin Village, chasing the Catalyst Comet. He can be quite joking, and even with his short temper, tends to not take things too seriously.
[suprised] That strong presence from before, it's gone…
[sarcastic] Don’t inflate your ego too much, or I’ll grab a pin and pop it.
[happy] We have you playing guard duty, so don’t mess up, ok?
Gen is a Freedom Fighter working for the police under a detective named Adata. He is extremely serious, and is almost always focused on work. His voice is quite deep. He's a close friend of Jack.
NOTE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE: HIS NAME IS PRONOUNCED LIKE JEN. LIKE AT THE START OF THE WORD "generation"
[serious] Yeah yeah, we get it. Cut to the chase, how have you been? I don't wanna be sitting here for another 5 hours constantly tossing around names.
[in shock] W-What?! They weren’t here before! Why are there so many drones and soldiers on the island?
Mighty is a mercenary working for the Reformed Army. He has a mostly laidback personality, but when the situation means something to him, he will fight for what he believes he should. Slightly deep voice.
Note: Alain's name is pronounced Al-lan
[serious, addressing his commander] No, I’m afraid we haven’t. How are things back at the base, captain?
[Happy] I mean, sure! I’d be happy to do some training, Alain!
[Shocked] Did you hear that? Wait, where’s Space gone? He was right there!
Is soft around Zirco. Has known him since childhood. Gets mad when Zirco is hurt. Slightly middling voice.
Note: His name is pronounced Al-lan
[serious] My name is Alain, and I am the second general of the Reformed Army. Prepare to meet your end here.
[happy] Zirco, you're still here!
[sad] Don't leave me! Please, no! I don't want to be alone again, not like before!
Likes to joke a lot. Loves being around his brother. Slightly light voice,
[determined] Together, we are the duet that strikes down intruders! Get ready to fight!
[happy] Man, this diner is the best. Of course, it's better with you, Brody.
A bubbly magician-in-training. She's always optimistic, happy, and slightly insane.
[excited] You need a magician? Well here I am! Lulu, ace magician of the skies, at your service!
[happy] Take this! Arcana... BURST!
Syane is a demon, and is also quite in-syane. I mean, Insane. yeah, that. He can be insane at times, but only when he's coming up with something amazing. Syane is honestly very optimistic, and is in love with Karanaia. He's very silly at times, and has a bit of a light voice.
Despite being a demon, his voice isn't always chaotic. He can be quite caring, and it is reflected in his normal voice (sample lines 1 and 3). However, when insane, his demeanor twists into a foul one (line 2).
Notes: His name is pronounced Shay-ne. Karanaia is pronounced car-a-nai-ah
[happy, shouting, determined] Yes! This meal will be the best I've ever made! No, not just that, it's the best in the WORLD!
[insane, furious] Silence! I must kill.... kill..... KILL! I have to KILL YOU ALL!
[in disbelief, frustrated at the end] This is why we don't go too close to the comet, isn't it, KARANAIA?!
Has a very monotone voice, except for the moments when she feels a lot of emotion. She's a very focused girl, so much so that she can't even notice the obvious showing of Lulu's love for her.
[disbelief] I can't believe how constantly upbeat you are, Lulu.
[happy] Wow, thanks Hanbo! You were pretty great too!
[neutral] Lulu, please take this seriously.
A popular idol from a far off land. Accent should be slightly there and not dominant. She has neko ears, similar to Alpha's. She thinks of herself as the leading star, and can get a bit disappointed if it doesn't all go her way at her shows.
[excited] Hey everyone! It's me, your beautiful idol of hope and joy, Kizzy!
[happy] Everyone, are you ready? I said, are you READY?
[pouting] I'm a bit miffed. You guys totally ruined the show.
Sorrow is the split self of Hanbo, made to contain all her negative emotions after Hanbo could not get over the sins she committed. She lacks emotions, and resides in the World Of Sorrow. After being freed by the main characters, she slowly begins to open up and experience emotions, aswell as the world around her.
[neutral] I am the bringer of sorrow itself. As such, my name is that of what I bring.
[sad] Why waste your time... creating someone like me?
[happy] Maybe i'm starting to finally open up.. Is this what they call emotions? I have to admit, it intrigues me.
Xehon is the fire dragon god. He tends to act cocky, but can also have a light hearted side. Energetic, with a slight middling tone to his voice.
His name is pronounced Ze-hone
[serious] Fire is my domain, you know. You're already looking pretty burned up, guess I must've left the oven on too long. Now, time to throw you into the trash!
{happy] Zen! Yo, Zen! Can you hear me? It's me, Xehon!
Zen is the guardian of the gate of souls. He guards over them every day as his job. He has a slighly deep tone to his voice. He's best friends with Xehon, the Dragon Fire God, but prefers for him not to bother him when he works.
[neutral] I am Zen, guardian of the Soul Gate. Provoke me, and you will fear for your life.
[angry] Oh for Meikai's sake..... XEHON, PLEASE LEAVE!
Lav is a very serious Twin Mage from Noskar Village. He works for Gen as of the end of the story, and is very dependable. He has a slightly lighter voice, and a very bossy personality.
[serious] Storm! Stop goofing off and get back to work!
[happy] It's an honor to be working with you, Gen.
The laid back twin mage from Noskar Village, Storm takes a more easy approach to life. A moderately light voice, with a more lively persona. Storm also loves nature, due to his role as the Nature Mage. He gets along well with Gaia, the Earth Dragon God, due to this.
[disappointed] Lav, I don't want to fight anymore... I need a break.
[happy] Isn't everything great around here? You've got trees, trees, houses made out of trees- (spoken by Gen, don't voice this part in brackets: Wait, what was that last part?) Which one, the one about trees or the one about trees?
Snowy is a merchant from the Borenda Hero Guild, and has a slightly high pitched voice. He tends to joke around quite a lot.
[happy] Here I am, the REAL best merchant in all of Borenda! I have potions! And potions! And a letter telling me to restock everything else!
[neutral] One potato, two potato, three potato- Ah damn, I dropped them.
I can't believe you came all this way... just so you could see this stuff.
*Say something you think would fit*
Lucy is a minor character who owns a shop. She takes things a bit too seriously at times. She's mostly happy and bubbly.
[happy] Welcome to Lucy's Item Plaza, the best (muttering) and only (end muttering) item shop in Marin Village!
I currently have 2 more spots open for musicians. There is no specific one style of music for the game, I will always specify when I request a track.
