Character Description:
Zidane Tribal is the main protagonist of Final Fantasy IX. He is a thief who works for the Tantalus Theater Troupe set to kidnap the princess of Alexandria, an event that escalates to a quest to protect the planet of Gaia. Zidane is laid-back, casual, outgoing, and generally friendly to those around him. He is flirtatious with women, but develops feelings for Garnet specifically. When the situation calls for it, he can be more serious, particularly in the face of danger. Zidane cares for those around him, often offering them advice on life, and is selfless in his actions. He tries to conceal his insecurities and fight them alone.

Vocal Tone
This should be played in a very standard North American dialect (more West Coast style). Play Zidane as upbeat, fun, and caring, mixing in excitement, a bit of cheekiness, and unwavering friendship to the people he cares about. Your pitch should not be deep, it should be energized and youthful. Think along the lines of Red XIII in the second half of Rebirth.

Directorial Considerations:
- Consider your "Objective" within the scene. You don't have to make it complicated. What does your character want? What strategies is your character using to achieve it? What is getting in their way of achieving it? What does your character have to lose?
- Your audio must not have any sound reflection. Consider recording with a blanket, or inside a space where the microphone isn't picking up the sound reflection in your room.
- Lastly -- Consider your environment(s) and read between the lines. If you just record the audio as-is, there won't be much life to it. You don't want to wander off-script, but there is still a lot of flexibility that can be added to the dialog to acknowledge breathe life into your recording.
