Hi again, everyone! Just wanted to make a quick update saying that we won't be providing any more feedback now that the project is already cast. We appreciate your enthusiasm and hope to hear you again in future casting calls!
Fire Emblem Cipher Crits: The Binding Blade - Part I
Project Overview
FIRE EMBLEM CIPHER CRITS
THE BINDING BLADE - PART I
This is the casting call for our third Cipher Crits video! The Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade anniversary is in March and just like the previous tribute videos FishyFried and I made, this one will be created in celebration of that. All critical quotes are original and written by us exclusively for this project. The video will be presented in a compilation format along with game footage and cut-in artwork from the Fire Emblem Cipher (TCG) series. The finished product will look and be presented in a similar way to how critical quotes are done in the 3DS Fire Emblem games. The video will be uploaded to YouTube on Fishy Emblem.
You can find our previous Cipher Crits videos here!
We asked our audience what characters they'd like to see for the first batch of Binding Blade and took that into consideration when choosing who to include. Since we're splitting up the cast, not all characters who currently have cipher art will be included in this casting call.

AUDITION GUIDELINES
Please keep in mind that some character descriptions and lines contain spoilers!
1) Have good audio! No puffing, pops, or echoes and minimal background noise is preferred. The audio will be edited and amplified, so any imperfections in audio quality can become very apparent.
2) Please read the character descriptions carefully before auditioning to get an idea of what we're looking for! While most of the characters here have a voice actor in the mobile game Fire Emblem Heroes, Binding Blade itself does not have an official dub. We’re absolutely open to, and would prefer any original interpretations that reflect the personality of the character!
3) Read your lines with emotion. Since most of these are critical hit lines, the majority are meant to be delivered in a smug, condescending way, and/or even shouted! The boss dialogue generally portrays a scene where the character is facing a powerful adversary, exacting vengeance or fighting a loved one under dire circumstances.
4) MULTIPLE takes of the critical hit lines are recommended. If you use a variety of intonations and emotions it increases the chance of us hearing something we like! Unless otherwise indicated by the (vs. whatever character) label, all lines are critical hit lines and should be delivered as such!
5) Please have Discord! With the exception of Roy, Lilina and Zephiel who have additional lines and quotes, the lines listed are all the lines required for the project. If cast, you will not have to record any additional lines unless redos are necessary (due to pronunciation, delivery, audio quality, etc) in which case the actors will have one week to re-record.
6) Deadline for auditions is February 24th, 2019. No role will be cast before the deadline.
7) If you'd like feedback on your auditions, please message FishyFried here on CCC or on Discord (FishyFried#3078)!
8) Since all voices will appear in the same video in quick succession, no one will be cast for multiple roles. You are, however, allowed and encouraged to audition for as many roles as you want!
--
The final video is expected to release on March 29th, 2019. All the lines, footage, artwork and any additional assets will be fully prepared so production will begin immediately after casting! If there are any questions, please feel free to message me, FishyFried or leave a comment on this page!
Thank you for your time & have fun!

Voice Actor
Roy
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
Joe Goffeney
The son of Marquess Eliwood of Pherae. He is forced into a war to protect his land that will eventually lead him on a journey across Elibe to save the continent from av even greater war between dragons and humans. A competent leader but lacking as a warrior, Roy is an upstanding, thoughtful, intelligent, and idealistic young man who repeatedly shows a desire to help and support others. Despite his inexperience, he manages to lead an ever growing army and gain people's trust wherever he goes. However, despite acting confident in front of his army, inwardly, Roy often doubts his competence as a leader and soldier. (he's like 15 but he's leading an army to save the world because anime)
Voice: Medium | Youthful, determined, noble
“I’ll see this through ‘til the end!”
“Fan the flames of past!””A leader belongs on the front lines!”
“For a true victory!”(vs. Zephiel) "But look at what you are doing! You are one of those humans who control other humans! I cannot agree that such a world would be for the better good! I have faith in mankind. I will not lose to a man who has lost faith in people and even in himself!"
Voice Actor
Lilina
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
pastafrutti
The daughter of Marquess Hector of Ostia. She is childhood friends with Roy and cares for him deeply. While Roy was trained in swordsmanship, Lilina was taught the art of magic. Lilina is very kind-hearted, outgoing, compassionate, and charismatic, not judging people for their skills, origins, or looks. On the other hand, she is also childish, stubborn, and naive to the point of being slightly detached from reality. Lilina herself is quite aware of her flaws, though, and she works very hard to become a good leader like her deceased father, Hector. (beauty or beast, she don't discriminate)
Note: For the dialogue, only read Lilina's lines.
Voice: Medium to high | Cheerful, compassionate, idealistic
"I’ll make you proud, Father!"
"To protect those I love!"“I won’t lose anyone again!”
“Roy’s MY boy!”
Optional line: "420 FORBLAZE IT!" (context: her legendary tome is called Forblaze)(vs. Leygance)
Lilina: "Leygance... Why?"
Leygance: "Times are changing, milady. I won't be left in the dust. I'm not like Lord Hector. He was too foolish to accept the obvious."
Lilina: "Hush yourself! I will not let you insult my father!"
Voice Actor
Zephiel
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
RileyMooreVA
The King of Bern and the main antagonist of Binding Blade. Zephiel started out as an idealistic and talented youth wanting nothing more than his parents to reconcile and peace in the world. He would later become twisted from his father's intentional and his mother's unintentional abuse of him. These experiences deeply embittered Zephiel, convincing him of the weakness and monstrosity inherent in humanity and the need to end humanity's grip on Elibe by allying himself with dragons, believing they would not repeat humanity's mistakes. (you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain...)
Note: He should sound full of contempt in his dialogue lines but more unhinged for his crits.
Voice: Low to medium-low | Vengeful, merciless, authoritative
“I will remake this wretched world!”
"The hour of judgement has arrived."(vs. Roy) "Jealousy. Hate. Greed. Friends, even family members would be driven to kill by these stupid emotions. Such emotions create fathers who try to kill their own sons to save their own flesh. As long as humans control, as long as humans dictate, as long as humans exist...this madness will never end."
(vs. Roy) "Mistakes must be fixed with haste. I will give back the world to the Dragons. I will free the world from the evil grasp of men. History must be redone from the beginning again to save this world from everlasting evil!"

Despite her childish and self-centered attitude, she does have a genuinely soft side and good intentions. In her support with Klein, she tells her brother that she doesn’t want to return to her pampered life after the war.

Role assigned to:
joshua bellas
The Great General of Etruria, Douglas is extremely devoted to his country and values honor above all else. He continually expresses the great shame he feels when circumstances forced him to side with the enemy, even though others insist he did nothing wrong. Due to his age and possibly the guilt he feels, he wishes to retire from his position after the war and leave the title of Etruria’s highest general to Perceval or Cecilia. Some years ago, Douglas also adopted a child off the streets. His support with her shows a warm and caring side one might otherwise miss on the battlefield. (the REAL daddy)
