Important Note
Do not say "Gwok" or "Ribbit". You need to envision throaty, creature-like sounds for this role.


Cid Fabool IX is a character in Final Fantasy IX. He is an aloof middle-aged man who rules Lindblum as its regent, having succeeded his father, Cid Fabool VIII. Cid acts as an ally to the party, aiding them in fighting Queen Brahne's aggression against the Mist Continent. He serves as a temporarily playable character during a short sequence, and as per tradition with Cids in the series, is the maker of several airships.

PERSONALITY

For Regent Cid, think of a leader who’s got the brains and the heart to guide a kingdom, but is currently stuck in the body of a tiny bug-like creature, which obviously doesn't help with the whole 'majestic ruler' vibe. He's wise, inventive, and genuinely cares about his people and his kingdom, Lindblum. Yet, here he is, trying to maintain his dignity and authority while also being, well, pretty adorable and sometimes comically frustrated with his situation.

VOCAL TONE
We're looking for someone who can seamlessly blend the wisdom and warmth of a respected leader with the slight, understandable frustration that comes from his unique situation as an oglop. The voice needs to be authoritative yet infused with a lightness that acknowledges the humor in his predicament, without ever becoming mocking. Imagine a dignified king who has found himself in the form of a bug, yet remains unflappably grounded and composed. His dialogue should feel natural and conversational, as if he's still running a kingdom and advising heroes. He's the kind of character who can address his subjects, offer sage advice, and then, in the next breath, lament his current inability to handle paperwork because of his bug hands—all with the same level of calm and presence. Voice Actors who can read storytelling narratives in a calming and soothing manner will be able to perform this role admirably.

ADDITIONAL NOTES ON DIRECTION:
- You need to be comfortable and flexible with live direction. If you require an exception or have a busy schedule, we are willing to accommodate.
- Your audio must be free from sound reflection. Some of our VAs navigate these challenges by either recording in a smaller space or draping a thick blanket over top of themselves and the microphone.
- Please refer to the character description, vocal tone, and directorial notes when auditioning for a role.
- Ensure that there is no background noise or noticeable distance between yourself and the microphone. The technical quality of your microphone and recording space is also being assessed.

  • Regent Cid: "And it wasn't easy, mind you... But we've no time to celebrate ! I heard from two black mages that there's some kind of trap up ahead. They said you basically just have to turn them all on, whatever that means . Let's hurry!"

  • (Gwok and Ribbit can be said as-is here.) Regent Cid: "Finally... Ribbit! I'm human again! Gwok! Now I can concentrate on building Hilda Garde 3! ......"
