Fire Emblem: Affinities (Chapters 1 & 2)

Fire Emblem: Affinities (Chapters 1 & 2)

Project Overview

Hello! I am currently in the process of writing a fan-made Fire Emblem story that employs places, classes/tiers, and names from different titles in a unique plot. I've had ideas for it for the past year and finally decided to put them into words! I believe everyone has a unique voice that only they can master and hone, so whether you are a fellow Fire Emblem fan or someone wanting to gain some voice acting experience, I encourage you to audition! Have an accent (or another vocal aspect) that you think wouldn't fit a character? Go for it! I would love to be surprised.

As the writer and director of this project who spontaneously decided to bring my idea to life, I do not have a budget. Perhaps in the future, I may be able to pay the team, but that will likely be self-funded. I'm still thinking about how the final product will be delivered; as of now, I will be working with audio files only. This will allow the project to be simple as it is just for fun.

What you can expect, however, is line direction and friendly collaboration. I have the plot outlined, so expect casting calls for future chapters and characters, so if this project interests you and/or you do not get a role now, I recommend following my profile to stay updated. Following this casting call will only let you see updates for Chapters 1 and 2, not the entirety of Affinities.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

War has just broken out between two neighboring countries, Nohr and Ylisse. The two were previously on good terms until Nohr suddenly attacked not even a year ago. Kirie Adair, a trained pegasus knight, has joined the Ylissean army and was sent to a patrol camp with her impulsive teenage best friend - but skilled healer - Maria. Within their first few months at the site, though, things have already started to pick up. Just what is Nohr up to? And can Kirie manage to keep her own goals in sight in the midst of war? 

**I am aware that the places are from different titles, Fire Emblem Fates and Awakening. This story is not meant to occur in either - or any game, for that matter - but to create something new with pre-existing names and concepts. I have no association with Intelligent Systems's Intellectual Property (IP).**


Please keep in mind:


  • When auditioning for a character, I encourage multiple takes and different styles. This allows me to gauge your vocal range and compatibility with the character. 

  • Minimal to no background noise is a must! Remember, this is not being animated. Only listened to.

  • Discord will be used for communication, so please include your tag.

  • Having experience with playing Fire Emblem is preferred, but by no means required.

  • I will provide feedback on auditions. This is not to discourage you but rather to give you an opportunity to improve, which may help your chances of being cast. 

  • If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. I look forward to hearing your auditions!

Latest Updates

  • Casting Call Complete

    Hello yet again! The character casting call for this part of the Fire Emblem: Affinities is now closed. However, the audio role is still open. I must first mention that it was great hearing everyone's auditions - I was not expecting as many as there were! Hence why I needed a week after the deadline to finalize roles. There were so many tough decisions to make. That being said, I've taken notice of many of you and hope that you choose to audition for future casting calls! There are still more characters I'll need later down the line. Thank you! ~ Astrid
  • Additional Roles

    Hi! First and foremost, I would like to thank every one of you for auditioning for this project! It's been wonderful listening to diverse auditions and voices. I have decided to have this casting call combine the first two chapters, as they consist of most of the main, recurring protagonist cast. I would like to cast voice actors for multiple chapters at a time rather than wait until I finish writing each one. That means future casting calls will group various roles, including the antagonist cast, and other minor and supporting roles. Due to this combination, there are three new roles. If you auditioned for a Chapter 1 role(s), I encourage you to audition for the Chapter 2 roles as well!

Narrator

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Doctor_Throwback

The narrator will narrate the parts of the scripts that are not character dialogues to give further context about what is going on in the story. Since names and concepts from Fire Emblem will be extremely prevalent, familiarity with them/their pronunciation would be great.

  • A dark, quiet night... Small, scattered fires illuminate a small camp, flickering as strong winds threaten to blow them out.

  • Kirie (Kee-ree) gazes off into the pitch-black sky through her uniquely designed helmet. Unlike most of her fellow soldiers, hers has two white wings on the sides - speaking to her class as a pegasus knight.

  • A loud, discordant noise rings throughout the camp. Kirie immediately snaps back to reality. What could that have possibly been?

Alexander Soloman

Role assigned to: Zachary-CT

Alexander is a mercenary and is new to the camp. A fairly easygoing fellow with a strong moral compass but gets serious when something (or someone) rubs him the wrong way. Mid-low voice and could potentially have a British accent, so if possible, please record takes with a North American and British accent - or another, for that matter!

  • The name's Alexander, but you can call me Alex.

  • Haha, just kidding - loosen up a bit! Anyway, want some?

  • Her posture and expression... She commands respect. Don't screw this up.

Role assigned to: KiChan

Riza is the stern but caring leader of the camp. She respects her soldiers and those who are assigned to her and expects the same. Doesn't put up with any nonsense. Riza has a deeper, mature voice.

  • (Concerned)

     Send the other two as backup. I don't like where this is headed. Not at all.

  • (Chuckling)

    Ah, long time no see! How's it been? 

  • (Serious)

    Let's put all the formalities aside... Just what are you up to?

Maria Sana

Role assigned to: Audrey Willowbrook

Kirie's best friend, who Maria sees as the older sister she sometimes wishes she had. Tends to be impulsive, childish, and angers fairly quickly. However, Maria is very skilled in medicine and healing; her diligence has allowed her to join Kirie at the campsite, where her assets are highly valued. Mid-high vocal range.

  • (Teasingly)

    Oh, like that time when you almost burned the tent down? 

  • (Gritting her teeth as she tries to suppress her anger, before finally giving in)

    You reeaally want to test me, huh? Fine! Have it your way, then!

  • (Frustrated, on the verge of tears)

    I-It's not working! I'm doing my best, a-and it's still not enough!

Raphael

Role assigned to: M Sheep

Raphael is an elderly shop owner who supplies to the camp. On the outside, he seems like a gruff old man, but he genuinely cares for others, including his customers. Despite not showing it, he misses his late wife dearly.

  • Alright, listen up. Pay close attention and you kids might earn yourself a deal.

  • (Reminiscing) 

    I haven't heard of that name in ages... In all my years, I've only heard stories. My wife was fond of those tales as well.

  • Get back to work! (grumbles) Every day, it's the same thing with you.

Gaius

Unpaid
Role assigned to: Xander the Vyce

Gaius is a former thief who now runs a shop with Raphael, who gave Gaius a chance to leave his old life behind. He is also a bit of a flirt, especially with Kirie. Has a carefree nature and gets scolded more often than he'd like for it. 

My idea of this character and voice is largely borrowed from the character that shares his name from Fire Emblem Awakening, the one and only Gaius. His English VA is Ray Chase.

  • (sighs) I can sit here all day... Too bad the old man won't let me. If ya ask me, he's missin' out!

  • (Brushing off a concern)

    Don't worry about it, this one's on the house!

  • (Flirting)

    Careful, now. I just might steal your heart.

Role assigned to: Erin Kurtz

Erynis is the team leader of Kirie's pegasus knight squad. Has an attitude and picks on Kirie often. However, she takes her role very seriously and has the highest mission success rate in the camp.

  • (Proudly)

    Well, we got the job done. That's what matters in the end, after all. 

  • (Serious)

    I'm giving you this one last chance. Don't make me regret it. Got it?

  • (Angry)

    Hey, who do you think you are?! I'm the team leader here. Show some respect, kid!

  • On your feet, buddy. You've got questions coming your way with all the drama you've caused.

  • W-Wait, don't tell me... It's true, then?!

    I heard that it's been like that since we got here. 

  • Is that for sale? I kinda like it, if I do say so myself.

  • Huh? Where'd everyone go??

Role assigned to: Loviathyn

It never hurts to have another pair of attentive eyes! The editor's role will be to proofread the chapters and format them as scripts. I would like to see any writing/script work you've done.

Suggestions to the plot are also encouraged, so knowledge of Fire Emblem is highly preferred!

Role assigned to: Firm Mathers

I am looking for someone who can engineer audio files (normalize, equalize, etc.) for them to sound as clean as possible. Bonus if you can add sound effects, as that is another aspect that I will need help with. 

The chapters are not meant to be very long, so the workload shouldn't be too much. I am also flexible with deadlines to give you sufficient time given that this is an unpaid and in-progress opportunity.

To apply, I'd like to see any past relevant work that you have done and are willing to share.
