The following roles are currently available.
-----4 Male Roles-----
Soma Cruz--Age 18--Voice: Heroic and Slightly Dark--
A high-school student living in the town of Hakuba and the hero of the Sorrow series. He possesses a strangely daunting presence and people find him distant and difficult to approach. On the evening of the 2035 A.D. solar eclipse, Soma sets off for the Shrine of the White Horse. The Shrine is located on a hilltop and is attached to the house of his friend Mina. Soma and Mina look forward to watching this rare astral event from the high-altitude view of the Shrine, but something happens and they are knocked unconscious.
Graham Jones--Age 36--Voice: Charismatic and Sly--
The founder of a new religious sect with hordes of devout followers. Born on the 7th month of the year 1999, Graham is rumored to possess magical powers. He gains converts by preaching that the apocalyptic prophesies that were so popular at the end of the last century will come to pass in the year 2035.
Julius Belmont--Age 55--Voice: Bold and Cynical--
A descendant of a clan of Vampire hunters, he lost his memory during a traumatic incident he experienced while battling Dracula in 1999. Julius possesses amazing powers and is extremely fearful of Dracula’s resurrection.
Hammer--Age 34--Voice: Casual and Masculine--
A soldier dispatched by the Army to investigate the Hakuba Shrine. While he looks rough and resolute, he is actually aimless and irresponsible. Hammer has always wanted to retire from the Army and open his own business. He’s infatuated with Yoko.
-----2 Female Roles-----
Mina Hakuba--Age 18--Voice: Gentle and Innocent--
The only daughter of the Shrine’s caretaker and head priest. A childhood friend of Soma’s, Mina is extremely friendly and well liked by everyone she encounters. Though Soma has quite an intimidating personality, she gets along with him comfortably.
Yoko Belnades--Age 24--Voice: Warm and Social--
Descendant from a long line of witches employed by the Church. Talkative and quite nosy, she has been sent by the Church to investigate the prophecy of Dracula’s resurrection. She is acquainted with Genya Arikado.
-----Already Cast-----
Genya Arikado-- Age ?--Voice: Cold and Serious--
A member of a top secret government agency related to national security. Mr. Arikado is shrouded in mystery, his true identity is known to only a handful of people. Although he is strikingly attractive, his cold and detached demeanor makes him difficult to approach. He is familiar with the prophecy of Dracula’s resurrection.

Do we need to read dialogue from the game, will there be any provided for us (to test certain emotions like anger, shock, or fear) or do we need to provide our own?

Aria's original script is probably the best place to start. You can find it here.

Please bear in mind however that we are rewriting some of the dialogue for dramatic purposes, so don't get too attached to the original script. You can certainly audition with your own dialogue, just as long as you remain true to the character.

Are you still accepting auditions? ;o

I always thought Graham Jones would sound like a Baptist Reverend/Minister from the South.
Like... this guy.

Yessir. :-) Please be my guest.

I agree. Seeing as how Graham Jones was clearly inspired by Billy Graham and Jim Jones, it seems like an appropriate direction. Unfortunately if the auditions are light and I may not have much choice. I had a Graham audition recently where the gentleman NAILED the voice for Dawn of Sorrow's Dimitri. A completely narcissistic tone with a thick English accent. What a shame for that voice to go to waste. I have him trying out for a couple other roles right now.
