Update!
I've started editing for the bits and pieces I can, but there are still important roles to be cast.
I appreciate those who have lent their voices so far immensely as well as their quick work and patience with me. Have a lovely day today : )
MLP Ex-King-Sombra (Beginning/Prologue) Dub
Project Overview
I'm asking for VA's for a dub for the beginning of my comic/ask blog: https://ex-king-sombra.tumblr.com/tagged/beginning/chrono ! If the first dub goes well, I may talk to y'all about more parts in the future!
Please provide your Discord with your audition! It's not required, but I'll likely be more immediate with my responses there. Please and thank you!

The deadline will be pushed back, and I updated something Sombra-wise
I realized maybe I wasn't clear enough on the Sombra delivery. While I want him to sound intimidating, it's important to note that he is powerless in this story. So I updated directions for one specific line I hoped to be a good example of that emoting. When I say "capable of silly delivery", I'm asking for REALLY silly. Like "demanding respect and bowing from people, while in chains" silly. Hammy even. He is in a pathetic position, yet completely refuses to acknowledge that he's vulnerable in any way.

Low and bassy, but capable of some silly delivery ^^
You may take liberties when it comes to voice interpretation
Language:
- english
*indignant/offended, important note: He is not intimidating here. He is demanding a princess to respect him, from inside a jail cell. Here, he is loud and demanding. Childish.*
I may have been dethroned, but that doesn't mean I'm unworthy of respect! Do you know who I am? I am KING SOMBRA! I am to be FEARED and ADMIRED, not threatened and degraded by the likes of you!
*smug/kinda creepy* I never said I /didn't/ physically harm anypony... I just implied that it's not the only method of controlling others.
*Matter-of-fact, tired* It would have been a waste of time and resources. There are other ways to display barbarism without physical harm.

https://youtu.be/PxYUznbRlzM?t=96 A great example of her voice : )
Language:
- english
*cold, matter-of-fact* After your second defeat, we made sure to contain anything left of you. /You have a habit of coming back/.
*straightup bitter* We'll see if he remains that lucky, after I talk to the two sisters and princess Twilight.
*hesitant/somber* We didn't know if he was dead or not. His return was considered an inevitability, but /not this soon./

Fitting his canon voice doesn't matter as much, since it's been a few years since the ending and such, but something that sounds reasonably like the same person would be preferred.
Language:
- english
Voice description:
- male teen
*friendly/approachable* We've never actually talked face to face before, but since we'll be hangin' out for a while: Hi! I'm Spike!
*hesitant, a little nervous but still good-natured* Well I'm not completely sure... I'll try my best, though! That's usually enough, right?
*Serious, "levelling-with-you" sort of tone* You're probably right. Even if you are though, I've still gotta try. Twilight trusts me! A-and... Maybe /this time/ I can really /help/. If there could be more to him, I can't give up before I even start.

She had a soft, low voice. This can be read as sweet, but very non-specific, emotionally. It's almost... Insincere. She's long dead, so she'll only be narrating the beginning and the end of one of Luna's narrations.
Language:
- english
*hushed, maybe even a little sinister.* But if you know the tale of the mare in the moon... And the tale of the Crystal Empire... /There was no happy ending/
*narrating, like someone reading about someone else's speculation, and trying to emote for who they are reading to if that makes sense.*
He left them to speculate. Had he wanted for power, to the point of removing the competition? Had he been afraid of the responsibility, and if so, what about it was more pressing than the rulership of an empire?
*serious, harsh* Within the isolation, he toiled within, and resentment decayed his mind away.

https://youtu.be/X9tV0CalQbE?t=64 I think this has a good example of her voice! She won't have many in-person lines, but she will likely be narrating a small portion.
Language:
- english
*wistful and somber* She did her job diligently, though her heart was near breaking, for she never received the love she craved. Only fear.
*hesitant but a little hopeful* Conflicts of interest haven't mattered before, dearest sister. This is a discussion about attempting reformation. Surely we can discuss resources /after/ we've made a decision?
*helpful, eager* I used to know him. I could probably help come up with something truly productive.
Voice Actor
Language:
- english
*nervous, but trying to hide it? Tense.* Sit down. We're about to have a VERY important discussion.
*frustrated* Sweet Celestia, can we PLEASE stop wasting time indulging lunatics and get to the matter at hoof?
*persuasive and insistent* I know he might not want to change, but that hasn't stopped us before!
Discord, Starlight...Neither of them planned on bettering themselves, even after being given time to think about it. We needed to reach out with them, and maybe it'll work if we reach out /now/.

*stern* Somepony would need to be willing to provide Sombra with housing, food, hygiene needs... Nopony in Equestria lacks prior history with him.

He's very blunt. He doesn't care about this situation, but he DOES find some mild amusement in an ex-dictators misery. He may have more future lines, but he might not.
Language:
- english
*deadpan* Nope.
*with humor, but a bit mean-spirited* I wish I could see you try to convince them you're worth the effort. I'd wish you luck, but...
*formal* Sombra, it's time. I was sent to escort you.
