Chaos Academy - WIP (TOTAL PROJECT OVERHAUL)
PilotWarden for Mephiles
Mephiles the Dark is the main antagonist of the 2006 platform video game Sonic the Hedgehog, and a major antagonist in the 2024 video game Shadow Generations. He is the other half of an eldritch-like being known as Solaris, with the other half being named Iblis. He is a cold, calculated, and villainous demon, who uses lies and threats to turn people against each other. He is shown to be extremely sadistic and destructive, as he gloats over how Omega will be the one to betray Shadow in the future and takes simple enjoyment over killing Sonic.
For the vocal direction, there are two voice actors that could be used as reference. The first is the wonderfully talented Dan Green, who also voiced Knuckles the Echidna during this period. He gives Mephiles a deep, calm, and almost articulated voice, shrouded him in this cloud of mystery as you'd never know what he would do next. The next voice actor is Robbie Daymond, who voiced him in Shadow Generations. He gives Mephiles a voice that's filled to the brim with animosity towards Shadow, as his goal within the game is to restore himself back into the timeline by killing Shadow. However, if you can't go with these, just come up with something original, and if it works, I'll take it.
The custom test lines will be from Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow Generations, and some original lines respectively. They will not be in any sort of order.

Sonic 06 Lines: (Maniacal Laughter) Oh, how ironic fate can be. I would never have believed I would be resurrected through your shade. I thank you, Shadow the Hedgehog. I'm Mephiles. Mephiles the Dark. What? Have you forgotten me? I owe much to you, Shadow.
Shadow Generations (SPOILERS): I will defeat you, and restore myself to the timeline. What? Did you forget about me AGAIN?! Welcome, Shadow. To the ultimate game of shadow tag! I owe much to you, Shadow. (Maniacal Laughter) It's time to raise the curtains on this macabre play! No... I want to exist!
Original Lines: All this time... all this time. You have done so much for me, Silver. I owe much to you. I transcend time and space. Perhaps I can give you a proper conclusion. The person responsible for your planet's destruction, the Iblis Trigger, is a hedgehog by the name of Sonic. I remember you. You sealed me away! You really believed my lies, did you? You're about as incompetent as they come. You want your future? You'll have to take it from me.
Absolutely wonderful! Has an amazing mix of sly, malice, and overall sadism!
Thx! I’m very new to voice acting and seeing a project lead actually saying I did a good job felt good. Hope the project goes well.
