Emberfate: Tempest of Elements
Project Overview
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Set in regular modern-day life, you are the leader of a raiding guild in the world's hottest MMORPG, Emberfate: Tempest of Elements. Balance the intricacies of being a raid leader, ranging from preparing for boss battles or distributing loot, to managing the intricate relationships you have with your fellow players. Engage in conversations with your guildmates, listen to their troubles — and maybe pursue one of the three possible love interests to build a romantic relationship of your own!
Take charge of your own fate, and shape the future of those around you. In Emberfate, everyone is dealing with something, and your choices and support could make all the difference.

FEATURES
- 3 romanceable love interests
- Fully voiced dialogue (raid comms and voice / video calls with the love interests)
- A rich colorful cast of side characters to bond with
- An immersive experience to scratch the MMORPG nostalgic itch
FURTHER PROJECT DETAILS
- This is a romance visual novel, with one male love interest, one female love interest and one non-binary love interest. MC is player-customizable and does not have a fixed gender / background.
- This will be a PWYW / free release on Itch.io, and later put on Steam if funds allow. There is the possibility of adding extra content later down the line in the form of a commercial / paid DLC, whereupon the cast of voice actors might be approached to do more voiceover work for new lines.
- A demo for the project was released in May for the amare game jam. The project is now being completed in an episodic form of release, with the project scheduled to be finished by late 2022.
- Many of the main and side characters are minorities: LGBTQIA+, people of color, neurodivergent, mentally ill, disabled, etc.
AUDITION DETAILS
- As mentioned, the plan is to release the game in monthly episodes, which means VAs would be expected to record lines in batches regularly every month or so.
- As this is a recast of a role, I'd greatly prefer if the cast VA is able to re-record about 100 lines as soon as possible after the casting, because I need to replace the voice lines in the current demo that's available.
- Pay will be fixed at US$1 per line with no royalties from the game sales or donations. (I'm sorry, I really would like to do higher, but since it's a game jam project that will be released for free, my budget is a bit limited.)
- Please note that one line is not necessarily one sentence, but in general, you can expect the length of each line to be somewhat like the audition lines below.
- An estimate of about 250 to 300 lines for the character of Chris.
- All payment will be made via PayPal.
- A contract will have to be signed once it's confirmed that you'll be doing voiceover work for one of the roles, so please be 18+ and be willing to sign a contract PDF with your real name.

*This is a recast audition for the role.
The leader of Requiem, a rival raiding guild, Chris has a reputation of being a hot-tempered, blunt jerk with a sharp tongue. Only a lucky few have been able to get through the tough demeanor to their secret, soft side that they try very hard to hide. When even their own guild turns its back on them, will you stay by their side?
** Note: Chris is a non-binary character with he/they pronouns. Voice talent who are non-binary and/or pansexual are especially welcome to audition for this (and if you feel comfortable doing so, you can send me a private message letting me know you are part of this minority group and auditioning for this role, and I'll definitely prioritize that when considering auditions.)
British accent would be greatly preferred, but not necessary.
Estimated total of lines would be 250-300 lines.
[You're confronted about your guild officers poaching members from other guild's raid teams]
(Serious, SLIGHTLY blunt jerk-ish, a little bit impatient) About what you said earlier — yes, it's a pretty awkward situation, but what do you even want me to do about it?
*Please don't overdo the mean jerk thing!
[You've been accused of stealing from the guild bank and most of your guild doesn't trust you anymore. You're speaking to MC, who's chosen to believe your defense when you state your innocence]
(Really uncertain, clearly struggling with themself to show softness / weakness, a bit embarrassed and tsundere, probably starting off talking really slowly and uncertain, and then talking super fast for last sentence like you're blurting this out and then instantly running away by hanging up) ...Yeah. I guess I just wanted to say... Thanks. For trusting me even though we aren't even close.
