Baten Kaitos - Recast [Closed]
chromex20 for Kalas (Also See Description)
Age 18 (Later 19)
VOICE RANGE: LOW - MEDIUM LOW - MEDIUM
Major Role. The main character of Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean. The game primarily follows him and his Guardian Spirit on his quest to find vengeance for his slain brother and grandfather.
Description: Kalas appears to be a selfish young man. He is seemingly easy-going and usually looks out only for himself, uncaring of how his actions affect others. Behind his devil-may-care exterior is a jaded youth who has seen far too much injustice to let anyone into his heart. At age 16 he narrowly survived an attack on his family, and disappeared, presumed by many to have died. Two years later he returned, supported by the powers of a mysterious Guardian Spirit and a thirst for vengeance. Ironically, the world seems determined to set him on The Hero's Journey, much to his frustration. For all he cares, the fate of the world comes second to his personal quest for revenge.
Character Notes: Hot-blooded. Feisty, and a bit impatient. Not your typical bright-eyed hero, but not overly stoic. A Main character who spends the first half of the game trying not to be a Main character. Kalas is a complex character who goes from disinterested and sarcastic to emoting quite a bit. When provoked or desperate, he will be yelling a lot.
I'll be looking for a confident male voice who is not afraid to show an emotional side when necessary.
(Firmly, shutting down a plea for help) "You’re asking the wrong guy. The Empire’s plans, the fate of the world… I couldn’t care less. The bone I have to pick is with Giacomo (JACK-Ko-Moh). Not with the whole Empire. I’m not that stupid."
(unable to hold back, enraged) "Giacomo! You don’t know how long I’ve waited for this moment! This is for my grandfather, and for Fee… You’re goin’ down, Giacomo… for good!"
(Normal) "My name's Kalas (CAL-lis). This is my first time here... Which is why I got lost, I guess.
(Recalling past events, gradual embarrassment) "Oh yeah, I remember now... I was attacked by Rock Cats… Oh man... how stupid of me."
(desperately clinging to his brother, in despair) "You’ve gotta fight this! Please… don’t leave me! Don’t leave me alone!..."
(Battle Finisher) "Mighty sword, flow forth like the wind! Sword Style: Blue Storm!"
(Battle Sounds. Please give at least one example of each.)
Attacking/Swinging sword: "Take this!"
Blocking: "Is that all you got?!"
Taking damage.
Death.
Hey there! I really liked your interpretation of Kalas and the strength of your delivery! You’ve got the confidence down, and your emotional delivery was well done. One comment I have to make though, is while you sound like a badass mercenary ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), for Kalas in particular, the voice I’m looking for leans more towards a slightly younger, medium-range. I’d say your Leo voice and Gaius voice on your demo reel are good examples of the range I’m looking for. Thanks for auditioning Chromex20!
