Hey Tiffany,

First off, thank you so much for putting so much energy into these auditions and dropping all these variations the range and turnaround speed are incredible!

I really liked what you brought to the table across the board, but your take on Zypher was the absolute standout for me next to Vex. You brought a genuine emotional weight to her lines, especially that raw emotion and grit during the struggle and the lines about lilith which actually hit me hard and made me shed a tear.

Since everyone moving forward goes through a second variation pass, I'd love to get a quick follow-up take from you for Zypher:

The Vibe: Keep that same deep emotional weight, intensity, and fight you brought to the first pass.

Vocal Adjustment: Dial back the heavy breathing/gasping by about 10–15% so it doesn't overpower the vocal delivery.

Character Dynamics: For lines like "I might let you drive next time" and interactions with the team, bring out that warm, slightly quirky big sister energy. Keep it grounded, protective, and a little playful.

Description & Character Background

Zypher is a hero fighting a brutal two-front war. During a catastrophic timeline collapse, she watched her best friend, Lilith, get swallowed by void corruption after a desperate attempt to save her. Zypher barely escaped—mutated, broken, and unknowingly infected by a Chaos Worm that is actively evolving into a Chaos Wyvern inside her body.


To hide her terrifying serpentine adaptation and suppress the parasite trying to rewrite her mind, she locks herself inside a heavy tactical helmet. Driven by suffocating survivor's guilt, she fights on the frontlines to protect what's left of humanity, harboring a tragic vow to give her former best friend a mercy kill.

Tone & Voice Direction:

Zepher’s performance is grounded, serious, fiercely determined, and carrying palpable strain. She is constantly keeping a literal beast in check under her armor. When she speaks, there is grit, resolve, and a deep emotional scar. She isn't a mindless berserker, she is a protector holding the line through pure willpower and heart.

The sides they read from:

  • As long as I can draw breath... this monster stays locked inside. Hold the Line! (Direction: Heavy breath, locking her helmet down. Fierce, unwavering resolve despite the pain.)

  • You sacrificed yourself to save me, Lilith... I won't spit on your memory by surrendering to the decay! I'll put you to rest... even if it destroys me! (Direction: Voice cracking with a mix of heartbroken grief, rage, and agonizing restraint. Responding to Lilith telling her to take off the helmet.)

  • (quips) "Rally up!" (Direction: Sharp, authoritative, protective. Command voice with zero hesitate.) - "Hold the line!" (Direction: Gritted teeth, grounded, immovable resolve.) - Not bad! Keep that up and I might actually let you drive next time." (Direction: Bright, proud big-sister energy, genuinely cheering on a teammate.)
