Final Fantasy Tactics Fandub

Project Overview

Hi everyone!


I'm producing a fandub for what I think is a highly underrated Final Fantasy game, Tactics. Released back in 1998 on the Playstation this game was overshadowed by FF7 and FF8 and had a radically different style with a darker storyline much of which takes place within combat grids that the player could move their characters around.  This also means the combat could go on for extended periods as the player used various strategies to win the battle.


I intend to show the full battles and I would like to give all the characters, whether scripted or not a voice! This means a lot of characters and a lot of improv for us to have some fun with. :-D


Not sure what I mean? Check out the video which includes a cut down version of the first battle in the game with only half the characters voiced.


Despite the number of characters there can sometimes be very large gaps between appearances so please be aware of this if you plan to audition. On the other hand there are some characters who will be in every single video for entire chapters at a time so be aware of this as well.


You will be given links to the videos to record your lines rather than being provided full written scripts allowing you to react to the situations and spot potential areas for improvisation.


You can post auditions here, via Youtube or email [redacted], I'll be asking for mp3 or WAV files for the recordings.


A few rules I do want you to abide by;


  *  Please have a decent microphone.

  *  Make sure you can scream ... characters both friend and foe will be KO'd at some point ... this is the Final Fantasy Game of Thrones!

  *  There will be swearing ... I want to keep it to the minimum yet some mild swears are in the original script for some characters and I am allowing swearing in the improvised lines as well though this is by no means a necessity.

  *  There are anti-religious themes like a lot of Final Fantasy games however this one is pretty heavy so be aware of that.

  *  Improvisation and collaboration will be highly encouraged to help create some fun within the long battles.

  *  To make said collaboration easier I would prefer you to have Skype.


This casting call is only for the first half of Chapter 1 so be sure to keep an eye open for the next casting call.

Latest Updates

  • Part 2 now open!

    Thank you everyone for your amazing auditions, I can already tell I am going to have a hard time choosing the voices but please don't go easy on me, if you still have auditions to submit I am still looking forward to listening to them.


    There are also many unnamed characters that will need voices so even if you don't get the role you applied for I may still invite you to join the cast as an extra/understudy.


    I have also opened up auditions for characters that appear further into the first chapter which can be found by following thd below URL;


    https://www.castingcall.club/projects/final-fantasy-tactics-fandub-part-2


    May I take this chance to wish you all a happy holiday and wonderful new year!

  • Extending the deadline

    Hi everyone


    Thank you so much to everyone who has auditioned so far, I'm listening to them all and even looking at your past auditions to see how you interpret different roles in case one of them is actually a better fit.


    However many roles have few or even no auditions at all so I'm extending the deadline so if you wanted to audition and have not yet been able to or you have auditioned but have spotted another character you feel you can voice either as an additional or alternative casting please get those auditions in.


    If needed please feel free to pitch shift your voice with a generalisation that I would younger cast members such as Ramza and Delita to have a high pitch than the 'adults' to help highlight their youth.


    If you pitch shift please make a note in the comments of your audition to help in editing should you be cast.


    A final thank you to everyone who has auditioned so far and shared this page or the YouTube video to help spread the word.


    Take care

Lord Dycedarg

Unpaid
Role assigned to: capt_eagle

Eldest son of Balbanes, Dycedarg is close allies with Prince Larg, one of the individuals fighting for the throne. He is a skilled diplomat able to use his charisma and presence to convince people to listen to him though he is often annoyed by Ramza's apparent inability to see the bigger picture.


I'd like a regal voice for Dycedarg to reflect his silver tongue, though I'd like him to also be able to show disdain when talking to Ramza.


Dycedarg appears occasionally throughout the story though with long gaps in-between.

  • <Happy> I hear you beat the first troops. I'm proud to be your brother. The senior statesmen spoke highly of you. You are truly descended from Beoulves.

  • <Normal> I want you to guard Igros Castle.  It shouldn't be so difficult. 'Danger' probably won't get this far.

  • <Unhappy> What happened? Why did you go to Zeklaus Desert?  Explain to me ... If everyone acted lawlessly, how could 'law' exist?  We Beoulves must show the importance of observing the 'law' as the Knights rule.

Role assigned to: capt_eagle

Ramza's friend through childhood, Delita is a commoner taken in by Ramza's father and given a life he could not normally have due to his rank. He is grateful to the family for this and has a genuine friendship with Ramza however other nobles look down on him and so he has developed a tougher hide and more cynical edge than Ramza.


I would like a strong male voice for this role, with the ability to sound angry in some scenes and composed in others.


Delita appears throughout chapter 1 (approximately 9 videos long) but after this he appears only occasionally.

  • <Mean> Come here! Be quiet!!  What an annoying Princess.  


    <Cynical>Tough ... Don't blame us. Blame yourself or God!

  • <Normal> Prince Larg's coming to town.  Not only Larg, but Marquis Elmdor of Limberry, too.  There are danger zones everywhere in Ivalice.  The Hokuten Knights are in full operation, but suffering from a shortage of men.


    <Angry> What did you say...?  How dare you!!  Damn you!!  Not all nobles are like you!  I trust Ramza!

  • Battle sounds, Please give at least one of each:


    High energy attack.

    Swinging a sword.

    Taking a hit.

    Death scream!

Role assigned to: SeterraVA

I will be hiring team members early in the game to be the regular troops Ramza will fight alongside, as such these will be like main roles.  Even though they will have only random battle text officially I want to build them up as characters and this means that you will have the chance to flesh out this character and even provide the name if you want to.


'Cookie' will be a female recruit who will be following the path of the healer.


The character I have in my head is a gentle, softly spoken character most of the time. She is by no means timid and has a strong desire to protect and help people. (Basically every white mage ever)


If you have another idea please feel free to improv lines your character would say and leave a comment with more info.

  • "Life's refreshing breeze, blow in energy! Cure!"


    "Precious light, be our armor to protect us! Protect!"

  • Improv or ...


    After the 50 Year War so many people were left sick and just waiting to die.  I couldn't stand it!  That's why I wanted to become a healer.

  • Battle sounds, Please give at least one of each:

Role assigned to: inrezairo

A holy knight serving as personal bodyguard to Princess Ovelia. 


Looking for a strong female voice. This is a role that I will probably take but I will still audition alongside everyone else as someone else may be a better fit :-)


Agrias is only in the prologue and is then gone until chapter 2 in which she is in most videos. She stops having scripted dialogue towards the end of chapter 2 but the idea will be for her to have improvised lines after that.

  • <Incredulous> The crest of the Black Lion!? What's wrong with Prince Goltana!? He's such an idiot!  Does he want to start a war!?


    <Shocked> Nonsense! There's no need to kill them! That's just what Goltana wants us to do! Just let them go!

  • <Normal> There's no time to waste ... We must hurry and rescue the Princess!  There is only one place they could've escaped to! Impregnable fortress ... Bethla Garrison.

  • <Weakly> I'm glad you came .... Let me .... look at you ...

  • <Slightly stronger> Never shame your name .... never tolerate injustice .... Living true to your heart is the warrior's way .... the Beoulve way.

Role assigned to: klotten

Younger sister of Ramza they share a closer bond than to either of the elder brothers as they are closer in age.  She is an intelligent and optimistic young lady who shares friendships with both commoners and royalty.


I'm seeking a young gentle voice much like Princess Ovelia's, however while I'd like Ovelia to have a regal quality I would like Alma to sound more down to Earth. If possible I think it would be good to have the same voice actress in both roles.


Alma appears occasionally throughout the story though with long gaps in-between.

  • <Normal> What Teta said is not true.  Actually ..... She has been picked on at school because of her rank.  Teta will be ok.  I'll be there for her.  Trust me.

  • <Being kidnapped> Ouch! Let go of my hand! BROTHER!!

Princess Ovelia has spent most of her young life in a convent and as a result is an extremely naive individual and unsure who she can trust beyond her bodyguard Agrias and only real friend Alma.


I'm seeking a young gentle voice but I would like her to sound regal.


The Princess appears throughout the story however there are very large gaps in-between. For this reason I would like the voice actress playing this role to also voice Alma, if possible.

  • <Normal> God, please help us sinful children of Ivalice.


    <Being kidnapped> (Scream) Let go of me! Why should I listen to you!?

  • <Sad> I wish I weren't a princess. People are dying because I'm the princess. It's so painful ....


    <Sad but defiant> So, you're using me, too. But you can't make me do whatever you want.

  • <Normal> I was always surrounded by the convent walls and have only seen the sky through them.... I met a girl at Orbonne. She said she had also been living in the monastery since birth. We used to laugh at how similar our lives have been.

'Sasha' will be the second female recruit this time following the melee route with classes such as Monk and Archer.


For this role I'm thinking the atypical tom-boy type character, a strong willed individual ready to let her fists do the talking.

Role assigned to: chromex20

Younger brother of Dycedarg and elder brother to Ramza, Zalbag is a powerful warrior with few equals on the battle field.  He is a dutiful knight and trusts in his elder brother but also cares about his two younger siblings.


I'd like another strong male voice here, perhaps with a bit of roughness like that uncle who is always drunk or an army officer.


Zalbag appears occasionally throughout the story though with long gaps in-between.

  • <Proud> I heard how you beat the thieves in Gariland.  That's worthy of a Beoulve. I'm sure farther would've been pleased with you.

  • <Normal> The spy we sent still hasn't returned.  He's probably in trouble, but the nobles say there's no need to search for his whereabouts.

  • <nudge nudge, wink wink>  .... Guarding a castle is boring work.  Don't you think?

'Vincent' will be our male recruit who will be following the black mage / summoner route.


I'm not sure what I envision for his character, on one hand I think he could be a studious bookworm studying to be a grand master. On the other hand he could be a reckless magic user whose family forced him to enlist to learn to control his magic ... or maybe something else.

Ramza Beoulve

cast offsite

Ramza is the main character of Final Fantasy Tactics with the game following him as he journeys through the world on his quest for answers and to help those who need help.


Youngest son of the noble House Beoulve, Ramza has enjoyed a sheltered upbringing which has made him naive to the horrors of reality whilst also granting him a sense of justice and doing what is right that is among his greatest strengths and draws others to him.


I am seeking a young male voice that can capture this naive hopefulness and the nobility of his name.


This is a major role with Ramza appearing in almost every video.

  • <Shock and confusion> Delita?!  You're alive, Delita? But, why are you in Goltana's troops?  ...Why?


    <Slow narration, dispair> I've taken my whole life for granted. When it came down to it I dropped it all and ran.

  • <Normal> I'm Ramza Beoulve.  This is Delita, a good friend. 

    Good evening kind sir, what news from the front lines?


    <Commanding> Silence! Surrender or die in obscurity! Lay down your swords. Surrender and we'll spare you.

  • Have you ever heard of the 'Lion War'?  It divided Ivalice in two over who would be the successor to the throne. It ended with the appearance of a young hero named Delita.

Dark Knight working as a mercenary hired to aid in protecting Princess Ovelia. He is a very cynical being who only truly cares about himself and the bounty.  Protecting the Princess is just another job and Gafgarion really could care less for Agrias' holier than-thou beliefs.


I'm looking for a mature male voice for this role who can capture the I-don't-give-a-hoot attitude and roughness of this character.


Like Agrias, Gafgarion is only in the prologue and is then gone until chapter 2 in which he appears in approximately half the videos ... He parts ways towards the end of Chapter 2.

  • <Rude> I'm being more than kind to the guard captains here. Besides we're mercenaries hired by the Hokuten. I'm not obliged to show respect to you.


    <Aggressive> Fool! Only idiots attack head on!  Kill them all! Don't leave any suvivors!

  • <Normal> So, Ramza you know who kidnapped her? Are you going after him? 


    <Cynical / maybe bored> We won't help you. It's not in the contract!

Don't want to have a main role but fancy being involved occasionally? I'm going to need a fair number of people to voice the generic enemies, some of them will have dialogue but the majority will be reacting to the situations and giving out taunts.


Feel free to give several different takes if you like and have fun with this.

  • What's this? Just a bunch of kids! What luck!  Ok, all we have to do is kill these kids! Then, we can escape!

    So, you must be cadets from the military academy!  Snot-nosed little nobles!!

Algus is from a noble family that has lost favour with the world and so Algus feels a little betrayed and believes he should get more respect than he does now. He is very arrogant and thinks very little of peasants, including Delita.


I'd like someone who can pull off a spoiled or slightly whiney kid for this role.


Algus is in most of the chapter 1 battles but his story is over by the end of chapter 1.

  • <Begging> I beg you, please help me save the Marquis!  He will be killed if we don't act fast! I don't know what I would do if .......

  • <Normal>  ...My family was once respected like the Beoulves. My grandfather was captured during the Fifty Year War.  He sold his friends out to the enemy to save himself.

Role assigned to: dorksensei

There are two text videos towards the start of the game that help set the stage for the story which I would like voiced.


This could be the same person, this could be the same as a character's voice or it could be separate roles.


Give me your best dramatic narrator voice.

  • A warrior takes sword in hand, clasping a gem to his heart. Engraving vanishing memories into the sword, he places finely honed skills into the stone. Spoken from the sword, handed down from the stone ... now the story can be told.

  • The kingdom of Ivalice; forever guarded by the twin headed lions and by the sun that shines upon them ... A year after the defeat of the 50 Year War, the King had died from a terminal illness earlier and the prince who succeed him was only 2 years old. This meant his guardian would actually reign in his stead as King. This is the beginning of what will later be known as 'The Lion War'.
