Echoes of Eternia is a 2D JRPG currently in development by E.o.E. Games. We're doing a modern take on a classic style of gaming established by such games as FFVI. Since the majority of the dev team are college students, we're looking for people seeking recognition and a chance to get their name out there. The character list and descriptions will be updated periodically as they are written. New roles will be plentiful, and very broad in range. We look forward to hearing submissions.
Confirmed Roles:
Namie Alguard: Amanda kay
Holland Alguard: Joseph Coll (xSeo)
Apollo Loren: Clifford Chapin
Toby: Sophipedia
Ciel Umbree: Lucien Dodge
Michele Soren: Suzie Sailaway
Cast List
Ciel Umbree (24): Templar( Melee/Priest)
Strong and silent. That’s what Ciel’s like. Ciel likes a fight. Once you get him started, it’s hard hard to stop him. He gets up close and personal. He’s extremely perceptive when it comes to people. The other characters find it hard to hide anything from him because of his shrewdness. Though he likes things simplified, and plain spoken, he can understand things when they get complicated. He tries to find the bottom line and works from there.
Voice Details: Ciel's voice should be somewhat deep, but still sound youthful. Nothing too heavy on the accent side, but an English accent would be appreciated. We will give more detail if we find that early auditioner's are confused.
Test script
Fangirl: Ciel’s so amazing! Did you see how he destroyed that guy in just over three minutes? Holland: (Loudly) Three minutes, huh? Ciel must be getting sloppy in his old age.
Ciel: Funny, I seem to remember us being the same age.
Holland: And I seem to remember being the reason you’re sporting a new cape.
Ciel: That almost sounds like a challenge.
Holland: This time, I’ll tear more than your cape.
Namie: (to Ciel) Do you have to go too?
Ciel: They made me your escort, so I’m to follow you wherever you go.

Ciel: So what’s bugging you? Other than the obvious, I mean.
Namie: I just feel like the world has been dropped on me. I mean, what’s with the “fate of the world” stuff? I’m a simple girl, born in a small village, who likes to journey through the woods, not some globetrotting, savior goddess.
Ciel: You feel overwhelmed because way too much has been dropped on you unexpectedly?
Namie: Yeah, I mean, who in their right mind would trust me to protect anything? I got into more trouble than all three of you combined!
Ciel: I get that, believe me. You have no idea how much I had to deal with.
Namie: You mean when you and Apollo left the village?
Ciel: Yeah
Namie: You never did tell me all of what happened that night.
Ciel: My family was taken from my house in the middle of the night. What else is there to say?
Namie: But you went after them, and when you got back...
Ciel: I don’t want to talk about it.
Namie: Okay, so then, what did you do? I mean, you seem adjusted now, so how do deal with it?
Ciel: You just can’t stop moving. The moment you stop, it all catches up to you. Have a goal, keep moving towards it, and don’t stop, no matter what. You’ll find that your anxiety fades, and that you’re made of tougher stuff than you realize.
Deadline: 7/16/12
Michele "The Tempest" Soren: (27) Time Mage
Michelle is a very openly emotional person. She is very bubbly and always seems to be happy. She is one of the only know time mages during this time period, so she has a great deal of responsibility heaped on her. She works closely with Lord Lightbringer ( audition coming soon ) whom is the leader of the kingdom of Brighton. She is pen pals with Holland Alguard, though they have never met. Holland is also a time mage and seeks to learn from Michelle, even though she is only a few years older than him. Michelle earned the nickname "The Tempest" because of her emotional outbursts, though not in a negative way. She is prone to large out bursts of laughter or happiness whenever something interests her.
Michelle's role in the game will become more prominent near the end, though she is featured throughout the entire game,
Voice Details:
Michelle's voice should be reminiscent of the cute anime girls we all know and love, though it should never sound annoying. Even though she is cute and bubbly on the outside, she deals with a lot of political intrigue and has been working closely with Lord Lightbringer for many years, so she knows how to behave when the time comes. She has a close attachment to Holland so anytime he is mentioned she lets out a big squeal!
Sample Lines:
MICHELLE
Isn’t it beautiful?
HOLLAND
It’s a beautiful sunset.
MICHELLE
Huh? Oh, no, silly! That’s not what I meant! I meant the flower! Do you know the legend behind it?
HOLLAND
I’ve heard of this place before, and probably heard the story at some point, but I don’t recall it.
MICHELLE
In the year 186 (EOE, of course), the Basque Empire was still in power. The Long Fall had already begun, but they still held power here. This was the time of the first major invasion by the tribes of Fornal. If they broke through here, the Empire surely would have perished.
HOLLAND
What happened?
MICHELLE
The Eternal Maiden happened. Her name was Elyena Zanetti, and she remained behind with a small force to hold this location until relief from the Empire came. No help ever came, and the defenders were all killed. They say Elyena died last, here on the top of this hill.
