Fate: Finality - A Short Audiodrama Series

Fate: Finality - A Short Audiodrama Series

Project Overview

Hello there, and thank you for taking the time to gander at this project of mine!

If you're unfamiliar with the Anime/Visual Novel franchise known as Fate, here's a quick rundown: Seven chosen mages in the modern day summon heroes of legend as Servants to fight one another in a bid for the Holy Grail, said to grant the winner any wish they desire. After watching a good portion of the Anime spin-offs, I was inspired to run a tabletop RPG session, set in the Fate universe for a number of my pals. One thing led to another, and I thought it would be neat to play a short audio drama for each player, detailing their heroic Servant's backstory.

I'm looking for talented and enthusiastic voice actors to portray the various characters in this audio drama. I'll compile the voice clips, edit the audio, add music and sound effects, and create four separate 6 to 12 minute-long set pieces for my players' enjoyment. But I need your help to make it happen!

Those of you who impress me will be given the parts, but for those who REALLY impress me, I'll be more than happy to write you a recommendation! On top of that, I'll be sure to share the finished product with everyone involved if you'd like to include any of it in a demo reel or something. It's the least I can do for your help with this.

Once I've hosted the session for my friends and played the completed project for them, I plan on posting it to YouTube for people to enjoy (Hopefully enjoy, anyway).

IMPORTANT FACTORS FOR AUDITIONING



  • Have A Quality Microphone/Recording Equipment
    • This probably goes without saying, but if your audio quality isn't up to snuff, your odds of being passed over are pretty high. Sorry.



  • Only Two Takes Per Audition Line, Please
    • If you're unsure what tone works best for any given line, feel free to do two.



  • Raw Audio Auditions Only, Please
    • I ask that you not add any music, sound effects, distortion, etc. to your audition. Normalizing the volume or editing out flubbed takes is perfectly fine, though.



  • There Are Plenty Of Extras
    • Even if you don't get the main role you auditioned for, do not despair: If I still liked what you brought to the table, I'll likely reach out to you with an offer for some extra bit parts.



  • Please Be Punctual & Communicative
    • If you're selected for a role, I'll send you the script very shortly after. So, please be willing to adhere to the deadline I give you at that time.



  • Don't Hesitate To Bring Your Own Interpretation
    • Should you have a cool idea on how to voice a particular character, go ahead and try it out! Nothing wrong with experimenting.


  • Have Fun!


Thank You Again For Your Interest! Happy Auditioning!

Latest Updates

  • Final Roles & Extras

    We've come to the end of the Casting Call for this little side project and, if you'll pardon the cliche, all I can say is... Wow! When I opened this, I wasn't expecting to get over 80 auditions, let alone such stupendous ones! I can't thank you all enough for taking an interest in this little shindig of mine. Frankly, there were so many fantastic auditions, I debated writing extra parts just to have an excuse to bring everyone on board. Sadly, this option proved (as you'd expect) not very economical or realistic, leading to some SUPER tough casting decisions. As promised, I've begun messaging a number of you, asking if you're interested in still lending your vocal talents, just as an Extra or two. I've gotten responses back fairly quickly already, but for those of you who haven't replied yet, I would ask that you reply by May 11th at the latest, letting me know one way or the other. Again, thank you all for auditioning for Fate: Finality - Every single one of you has talent and skill that came through in each line. I wish you all good luck in your future casting calls! Sincerely, -Alex/GuitArchon

  • Final Deadline Extention & Another Thank-You

    WOW! I honestly never would have guessed that this fun little audiodrama pet project of mine would get over 70 auditions in its time here, let alone from so many talented people! You guys have not made the decision-making process easy! I'm honored that so many talented folks have taken the time to try out for this, and I can't thank you all enough! That being said, there are still a small handful of roles that I was hoping to hear a few more auditions for before ending the casting call. As such, I have extended the deadline one final time. The NEW DEADLINE is now APRIL 30TH. And fret not if you didn't get a role you had your eye on; I guarantee you it wasn't for a lack of voice talent - Everyone has given a great performance. Please feel free to try out for any remaining roles and, even if those escape your grasp, I have a good number of extras I'm looking to cast. I'll be sending out private messages to those who I would love to still participate, even if you didn't audition for any Extras! Again, thank you all so very much for your magnificent auditions! Wishing you the best, - Alex/GuitArchon

  • A Thank You and Deadline Update

    Hey there, everyone. First off, thank you all for your interest and auditions. You guys have certainly made my casting decisions hard. I'm having a difficult time picking one of you talented folks over the others! I hate to do this so close to the deadline, but a number of important characters have gone without any auditions. Therefore, I've pushed the deadline back to 4/20/18 in the hopes of getting some more auditions for them. I've begun casting some of the roles, but if you're not selected, don't despair - All of these auditions have been great, so it has nothing to do with your skill level. I would still LOVE to hear you try out for other roles, should you so choose. Anyway, I've prattled on long enough already. I look forward to hearing more of your phenomenal voicework and wish you all the best of luck! - Sincerely, Alex/"GuitArchon"

Mina Harker (ARCHER)
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: KimChie

One of the protagonists from the legendary tale of Dracula, Mina Harker is summoned into the Holy Grail War as the ranged combatant Archer, wielding crossbows, throwing knives and revolvers.

While assisting in hunting down the evil Count Dracula, Mina herself was targeted and bitten in the process. Like the novel, the heroes of the story defeat the vampire before she can be fully turned. However, the Fate: Finality version of this chronicle ends with her friend and mentor Abraham Van Helsing sacrificing himself to achieve this goal.

In response, Mina picks up the mantle of Van Helsing, continuing to purge the unholy creatures that prey on the weak.

PERSONALITY: Caring, Level-Headed, Moral

A British/English accent is recommended for this audition, but not required.

  • [INSISTANT] “I’m telling you, Jonathan, Lucy was not killed by an animal. Something more foul is afoot. Think about it: The puncture marks on her neck, her body drained of blood, and now rumors circulating around town of seeing her skulking about after dark. It can only mean one thing...”

  • [SORROWFUL] "Abraham, wait! Please... allow me to be the one to put her down. I owe her this much. Please... Forgive me, Lucy..."

  • “There are more evil creatures out there that will surely grow even bolder, should they learn their greatest threat has passed away. If I must adopt a more passive role in this chronicle, then so be it. Vän Helsing must live at the end of this story.”

Role assigned to: Calum Johnston

Husband to Mina, Johnathan is cautiously supportive when she decides to train under the tutelage of Abraham Van Helsing. He becomes directly involved when Count Dracula infects her with a vampiric bite. While unskilled in combat and tracking, Johnathan's assistance was no less vital in bringing down the Count.

PERSONALITY: Supportive, Gentlemanly, Cautious

A British/English accent is recommended for this role, but is not required.

  • [GENTLE] “(*Sigh*) Look, Darling, I know you two were close, but all of the papers agree: Lucy was killed by a beast. It's as simple as that.”

  • [APPREHENSIVE] "I confess, I'm worried. We only just recently discovered the creatures that go bump in the night are real... And now you volunteer to fight them! But, if it's what you truly want, Mina... then I won't stop you."

  • "You're right. We cannot suffer this unholy curse to spread. I am with you, Abraham. Just say the word, and I shall do all that I can."

Role assigned to: Phil Lunt

Doctor, teacher and vampire hunter, Abraham Van Helsing enters the story to help Mina and Johnathan lay their recently undead friend Lucy to rest. From there, he passes the secrets of vampire slaying on to Mina, at her request. While his party of wouldbe nightmare hunters successfully track down the legendary Dracula, Abraham sadly falls during the confrontation. Grief-stricken, but unshaken, his pupil and friend Mina chooses to carry on the Van Helsing legacy in his stead.

PERSONALITY: Iron-Willed, Quick-Witted, Brave

A German accent is recommended for this role, but is not required.

  • “Very thorough research, my dear. You were right to come to me. If the testimonies can be believed, your friend Lucy has most certainly been turned. And most likely by Jonathan’s ‘acquaintances,’ from Transylvania.”

  • [DETERMINED] “(*Inhale*) Mina, hear me now: As God as my witness, I will spare you from this fate. We will track down this fiend and slay him before you become one of those abominations. But, we must act swiftly.”

  • [ANGER] “Count Dracula, your acts of terror are beyond forgiveness! Treating people as pawns for your own sick amusement! But, no more! We will put an end to you, here and now!”

Count Dracula

Role assigned to: Dictator Priceless

The quintessential vampire, Count Dracula works predominantly in the shadows within this version of the classic tale. However, he makes his presence known when he bites Van Helsing's newest apprentice, Mina Harker. Even then, the gesture is only meant as a way to taunt and torture his rival.

PERSONALITY: Malicious, Egotistical, Seductive

  • [BORED] “Yes, yes. ‘How dare I set foot in here uninvited.’ Please, Ms. Harker. I didn’t come here to repeat a conversation I’ve had countless times before.”

  • [CONDESCENDINGLY] “My dearest Mina. It has only been two weeks. I had hoped to see you next when you were fully under my control. Alas, I cannot blame you for wanting to see my beautiful face again so soon.”

  • “Terror? You dare speak to me of terror? Little human, permit me to teach you what the word 'Terror,' truly means!”

Sun Wukong (LANCER)
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: trickyloki

The Monkey King from the infamous Journey To The West, Sun Wukong finds himself summoned into the Grail War as the Lancer class.

During his backstory, Sun earns himself the ire of nearly the entire Chinese pantheon through stealing, tricking and fighting them at every turn. As punishment, Buddha imprisons him underneath a great mountain. 500 years later, he is released from confinement to assist a monk named Tang Sanzang in bringing sacred Buddhist texts back from India.

During their quest, the Monkey King learns valuable lessons about humbleness, compassion, and patience.

PERSONALITY: Easy-Going, Boastful, Comedic

  • [COCKSURE] “All due respect, Your Dragon-ness, my goal is to become as legendary as the gods themselves, known far and wide as The Great Sage. I can’t exactly achieve that without upsetting a few blowhards along the way, can I?”

  • [UPSET] “What a dirty trick, challenging me to a bet and fixing it so I have no chance! What kind of wise and benevolent being are you?!”

  • “Well, more than anything, I want to prove that I CAN do it. The Pantheon is so full of stuck-up jerks like the Jade Emperor. They need reminding that greatness doesn’t come from birthright - Anyone can achieve greatness. I guess that's why I can be so standoffish sometimes.”

Role assigned to: mylesM

A soft-spoken Buddhist monk, Tang approaches Buddha for aid in transporting Buddhist scripture from India to China. Seeing the virtue in his goal, Buddha grants Tang a reluctant bodyguard in the form of Sun Wukong. Starting their journey as strangers, the two develop a strong friendship, fighting off demon attacks and outmaneuvering traps.

PERSONALITY: Polite, Patient, Enthusiastic

  • [SELF-CONSCIOUS] “Thank you, oh virtuous Buddha, but… I was hoping for your aid in this endeavor. The land is plagued by many bloodthirsty demons as of late and… I have neither the means, nor the experience to defend myself.”

  • [AWKWARD] “So… Monkey King, huh? Does that mean you conjure up other monkeys to do your bidding and stuff? A-haha…"

  • “Oh, Buddhism is wonderful! It preaches tolerance, goodwill, humbleness, all the cornerstones on the path to enlightenment!”

Role assigned to: PlainYogurt

Mythical founder of Buddhism, the Buddha transcended mortality and earthly desires through enlightenment. When the gods complained to him about Sun Wukong thieving and attacking them, Buddha gave him the chance to renounce his mischievous ways, but was rejected. In response, Buddha imprisoned Sun for 500 years, only letting him out to accompany Tang on his quest to retrieve the Buddhist Sutras.

PERSONALITY: Calm, Benevolent, Wise

  • “Hmm… It seems our monkey friend has indeed become rather unruly. However, as with all things, a violent approach is not the way. I believe some time to contemplate his actions would greatly benefit this self-proclaimed ‘Great Sage’…”

  • "(*Sigh*) I’m sorry that I must do this, Sun, but I do it to guide you towards enlightenment. I am placing you under this mountain for an indeterminate length of time. Perhaps then you will learn the error of such selfish and arrogant behavior."

  • “If the Monkey King had come back here, I would have happily returned him to his imprisonment. But we are not in the presence of the Monkey King. Instead, I look upon Sun Wukong, The Great Heavenly Sage.”

Ao Kuang

Role assigned to: rage226

The fabled Dragon King of the East, Ao Kuang's role in Sun Wukong's story is small, but nevertheless pivotal. Ao Kuang confronts the Monkey King upon discovering he has broken into his armory and pilfered the legendary size-changing staff, the Ruyi Jingu Bang. Though he is unsuccessful in thwarting Sun's theft, the Dragon King petitions Buddha to put a stop to the Monkey King's antics.

PERSONALITY: Proud, Quick To Anger, Sophisticated

  • “Enough! Your lies are as transparent as the wind itself. Now, return everything you’ve stolen and I may grant you-... Wait... W-WHERE IS THE RUYI JINGU BANG?!”

  • [ANGRY] “Hear me now, lowly thief: I am Ao Kuang of the Eastern Sea! The very elements themselves bend to my will! And all who steal from me… will be made to SUFFER THE CONSEQUEN-Ow!"

  • “I warn you, fool: Continue making enemies as such, and you will soon face the wrath of Buddha himself.”

Bigby, The Big Bad Wolf (BERSERKER)

Role assigned to: JollyGinger

The central "bad guy" from many cautionary fairy tales, the Big Bad Wolf ("Bigby") is summoned into Fate: Finality as a Berserker.

His audio skit flashes back to three of his most iconic stories, but with a more off-kilter tune to them. The narration and presentation highlight Bigby's dark deeds, but also draw attention to the violent and oftentimes humiliating acts the wolf suffers at the hands of the "heroes."

PERSONALITY: Brooding, Bestial, Proud

  • “Little pigs, little pigs! Let. Me. In! Or I'll Huff! And I'll Puff! And I'll BLOW YOUR HOUSE DOWN!”

  • [ANGRY] “What?! MERCIFUL?! I am a proud and free wild ANIMAL!! I would sooner DIE than suffer this humiliating captivity! Release me! RRAAARGH!! RELEASE ME!!!"

  • [MASQUERADING AS GRANNY] “Oh, Granny’s feeling a bit under the weather, but she’s feeling mu~uch better now that you’re here!”

Role assigned to: AmberMarie

Much of Bigby's story is told through a storybook narrator. All of his/her dialogue is read like how an adult reads a story aloud for small children, even when the verbage takes a dark turn.

PERSONALITY: Overly Positive, Cheery, A Bit Unsettling

  • “Once upon a time, there were three little pig brothers. They all lived nearby one another in houses they built themselves. One day, the eldest pig brother was relaxing on his front porch when he spotted his siblings approaching in a panic.”

  • "The Big Bad Wolf sprang down the opening with a ‘WHOOSH!’ But waiting for him in the fireplace below was a roaring blaze the pigs had quickly lit."

  • “And so, the Big Bad Wolf was burned alive, and they all lived happily ever after.”

PERSONALITY: Peppy, Good-Natured

  • “♩ La la la la la la! La la la! Knock-knock, Granny! It's me!”

Don Quixote de la Mancha (RIDER)
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: ChefTEFVO

Protagonist of the titular book, Don Quixote is, in reality, the knightly alter-ego of Alonso Quixano, now summoned as a Rider-class hero in Fate: Finality's Holy Grail War.

After Alonso (No joke) rots his brain from reading too many books about knights and chivalry, he adopts the name "Don Quixote," and rides out into the country, seeking to right all the wrongs of the world. Unfortunately, he nearly always misinterprets and/or hallucinates during these "quests," oftentimes causing more harm than good for those he wishes to help. This is frequently done to comedic effect.

PERSONALITY: Melodramatic, Romantic, Boisterous

A LatinAmerican/Spanish accent is preferred for this role, but is not required.

PRO-TIP: His name is pronounced "Kee-HO-Tay."

  • [MELODRAMATIC] “My beloved, I’m afraid I must leave you for a time. I know not for how long, but rest assured - Nary a day will pass when I do not think of you. Shhhh… No words, my love. I could not bear to depart with the image of tears in your eyes. But I promise you, Darling, that I shall return to you. For now… Don Quixote must heed the call of chivalry!”

  • "Robbed? Far from it, milady - You are, in fact, being liberated! No 'Thank you,' is required, fair maiden. The deed itself is reward enough for Don Quixote! Now, onward! There is more work to be done!"

  • [WISTFULLY] “No, I’m afraid I can never again ride as Don Quixote. But… perhaps if fate is kind, he will be granted the opportunity to ride again... in another life.”

A farmhand persuaded to accompany Don Quixote as his squire, Sancho serves as the comedic foil to his friend's clumsy escapades. Good-hearted, but a bit too forgiving, Sancho is frequently left holding the luggage and/or trying to reign in Don Quixote's exuberant behavior.

PERSONALITY: Rational, Earnest, Self-Pitying

A LatinAmerican/Spanish accent is preferred for this role, but is not required.

  • [MAKING UP AN EXCUSE] "Terribly sorry, everyone! He is… in character for a play we are rehearsing! He takes the role very seriously. I’d best attend to him. Apologies!"

  • “There. A nice, simple, incontestable good deed. Perhaps, our luck is turning around…No! Sir, that’s not a dragon! It's just a barn! A BARN!!”

  • "Alonso, had you not invited me along on your flight of fancy, I would have simply continued slaving away on that farm, day after uneventful day. True, I’ve returned to tending the farm, but you have given me stories to tell my friends and family. Tales to pass down to my grandchildren. No sum of money could ever replace that."

Simply a pretty lady from Alonso's town of La Mancha, his deluded mind convinces itself that she is his one, true love Dulcinea. Utterly (and understandably) confused by his sudden familiarity, she does not know how to handle his advances. Later in the story, she is asked to humor his delusions and write a letter as Dulcinea in an effort to lure the Don home.

PERSONALITY: Polite, Adaptable

A LatinAmerican/Spanish accent is preferred for this role, but is not required.

  • [CONFUSED] "Um, I'm so sorry, sir, but I don't believe we've met. I think you may have me confused for another woman."

  • “That was far and above one of the strangest interactions of my life.”

  • [MELODRAMATIC] "My Dearest Don Quixote, I wish I were writing you in better spirits, but alas, my straits have grown quite dire. News of your courageous exploits have reached a man calling himself The Knight of the White Moon. Eager to challenge you, he has taken me prisoner! He attempts to learn your weaknesses through me in order to best you in combat, but it is a futile effort: My love for you renders me immune to thoughts of betraying you."
