Hallownest Vocalized | Bringing English VAs to Hollow Knight
Huggernaut for 21) Nailsmith
Driven by his craft and working in seclusion, he barely noticed the world changing around him, even as the Kingdom fell to ruin. He spends his time honing his craft, hoping to one day forge a Pure Nail, the apex of his work.
Your audition should use a voice similar to the in-game character's voice, which you can listen to here: https://youtu.be/VDUILmFlddU
[Calm] {context: The Knight's first conversation with Nailsmith}
After a Nailsmith are you? Well you've found one. I'm not much for talk, but if its a nail that needs repair then you've come to the right bug. Your own nail is in quite a sorry state. It's obviously not one of mine. Still, anything can be refined with enough effort and skill, even that broken blade.
[Satisfied and Calm] {context: Nailsmith successfully upgrades the Knight's weapon}
There we go. The reforging is complete. I've honed your nail's edge. You'll find it much stronger than it used to be. Head out there and test its strength against your foes.
[Enlivened and Prepared] {context: After forging the perfect weapon, Nailsmith stands over a tall ledge outside his workshop}
With a Pure Nail forged, my work in this lifetime comes to an end. My only remaining desire is to see and feel the nail strike true! I beg you, cut me down. As my final moment in life, I want to taste the blade's exquisite edge. After all this time, all this toil... haven't I earned it?
Oh, there we go, the quality is so much better here
There is not a better match for this role than this voice right here
I voiced the Nailsmith in Hollow Knight but I'm not auditioning after hearing this. You NAILED it! <3
Lol you’re kidding!!! Wow, that is a confidence booster right there! Thank you so much!!
