Your Character's Voice!

[Cheezie]

One of L'rinhi's biggest inspirations is Ruby Rose from RWBY; no secret there.

The child like voice reflects her age, innocence, and brashness, not to mention bluntness, of her words.

 

Wow that really makes me see Rini much differently

[Spikewerks]

From the beginning I knew that Zigovali needed a Hispanic accent (which is horrendously difficult to type out; I'm still looking for some way to make the accent apparent from reading, without needing to state that he has it). So, naturally, it was a toss-up between Antonio Banderas, and one other noteworthy cinematic Dashing Hispanic. I went with the latter.

Mandy Patinkin's performance as Inigo Montoya resonated better for Zigovali, being much more light-hearted than Banderas. While more verbose than Montoya, Zigovali has more or less the same level of passion and charisma, if not the sword-fighting skill or desire for revenge.

Akesaka Satomi. The specific linked segment at 2:06 is the sample I felt was closest to how I imagined it.

I chose her because she is versatile and not overwhelmingly saccharine in performance. Very underrated. Although she is known for being Arsene in Milky Holmes and Esdeath in Akame ga Kill, I was introduced to her by the short CG series (made on the cheap in MMD, no less) gdgd Fairies. Ain't even ashamed to admit it, even if it looks like a garbage kids show. It is mostly Seinfeldian conversation and some hilarious improv comedy segments, which Akesaka tended to dominate. So I was sure the VA could do serious and funny roles in equal turn, which was important to how I wanted to play my character.

 

 

Though not a PC, I did decide on her Master's VA as well.

 

 

Sakakibara Yoshiko. As her impressive resume suggests, she is a veteran of the industry most famous for Haman Karn from Zeta Gundam. She usually plays villains, which probably gives away a bit too much. Ah, who am I kidding?

I think the astringent and deep tone of voice is something Virara would probably attempt, in a flawed manner, to emulate. 

 

Haven't really decided on Eng VA cause I don't know many by name.

[Jana]

While I could go for the low-hanging fruit and give Jana the same voice as Kuroki Tomoko (from Watamote, done by Kitta Izumi), Jana has that kind of crazy manic side of hers. I went instead with the voice of Hoshi Syoko done by Matsuda Satsumi. (I don't think the RPC can embed videos to start at a time so feel free to jump to 4:12.)

 

[Izayoi]

This has the voice of two of my characters, Ineyo (the female white haired youkai) and Itsuki (Sesshoumaru)

 

vuaIVsY7SGI

 

For Shiori though: 

 

HaQbtXI41qY

[Seriphyn]

Vernon Roche. Personality included (granted, since Roche is never put in the casual/social RP scenarios that Kale is put in, it's not 1-for-1)

 

[Lucius Ignatius]

Greg Ayres/Son Goku (Saiyuki) in specific for Kiht. Lots of inspiration from Goku~~!

[Miakoda]

So I drive a mini-van around with children in the back.  The mini-van has movies playing in it to keep the children from rioting, and because I like to often play musicals and sing along to them and my children are my excuse to do so.

Once they wanted to watch a movie my eldest got for her birthday, Monster High: 13 Wishes.

 

Twyla, the Boogieman's daughter somehow became partial inspiration for Fiona Cooper's personality.  And full inspiration for her voice and how she pauses when she speaks. She's the one with the blue hair.

[AmeKusakari]

My Raen Au Ra sounds like Mirajane from the anime Fairy Tail

(The white haired girl)

 

 

My partner's Raen Au Ra sounds like Freed from the same show.

(The green haired Guy)

[Miss Gaz]

Okhi

Okami-San

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBHYlgRUuB0

The lead dubbed voice actress. Seems to fit well.

 

Amandine

Cant find a decent clip but Gyokumen Koushu from Saiyuki.

[Stringer]

I'm thinking Colin Farrell with his accent for Wilhere:

 

9yN8t5g9gJ8

[Swashbuckler]

Travis Willingham for Lance Barrington.

 

See video below. The character voice at 7:46.

[Dresden Voltaire]

Terri Hawkes definitely has the power to voice through Kali's zaniness.

[WanderingWordsmith]

I used to debate this for the longest time. However, after a chat with my FC-mates along these lines, we eventually pegged Liam O'Brien for Averill's voice actor. He's got the gravelly ferocity of his personality in spades, especially when he takes on characters like Asura (first clip):

O1-3XjB234I

[Ekidna]

It's a funny topic, I was just wondering how to describe my chara's change of voices as she is hiding behind multiple identities to avoid being caught and killed.

 

I like to think of Vayne's voice as similar to Adam Jensen in Deux Ex, I think this is the tone she'd try to emply when pretending to be a manly pirate:

sCkNwllUOQY

 

 

And when roaming in the cities with the identity of Charlene she'd use a tone closer to her real voice:

fWvHueqyDoQ

[Gharen]

Gharen would be Brian Bloom doing William "B.J." Blazkowicz with a slight Scottish accent.

 

ZC0vUS7i9JA

[Kilieit]

See, 2.0 voice acting was really funny to me, because the way I imagine Aghurlal's voice is really similar to Alphinaud's 2.0 voice.

 

 

Whoops.

[Grott]

Well, for Abodo

 

 

(starting at 4:24)

 

Good ol' Vincent Price.

 

 

 

And for Tancred

 

 

(He talks through the whole thing, but the inflection I'd give Tancred starts at 0:31)

[TK Hikaru]

An ex-friend once stated my own voice was a good match for Chouwa. I disagreed, mostly because I've got a more happy and playful tone to my voice that didn't fit Chou.

 

Always felt the dork had deep voice that still sounded feminine. I've done some deliberating and...

 

 

NTi-KpGLBI0

 

 

I've decided Miku-Tan's voice suited the ex-thief.

 

 

Bonus song, because it's in the exact tone I imagine for her.

[Garza Redwing]

I'd have to say Mugen from Samurai Champloo. Voice and personality are pretty spot on for how I envision him speaking.

[Faith Sauveterre]

Character Voices, huh?

 

After looking into it I think Emilia Clarke would fit her English VA It's also her Live Action FC on my Tumblr rp blog

 

vQCKdGgMvfs

 

 

Her Japanese VA would be Sayaka Ohara

 

tVWp9eRk_-4

[Shoshopu]

I can't help but feel like this thread happened before somewhere... but I can't be assed to look, either, so

 

 

Shopu would sound like Kristen Schaal but it'd be a little underplayed because she has a slightly more formal way of speaking than most of Schaal's characters

 

 

 

Awyrbyrt would sound like Kronk from The Emperor's New Groove (Patrick Warburton). He can speak marmot.

 

Eaubront, my elezen, would be voiced by Kevin Kline ...

d2TP6DZpmfA

"If I believed in fate, I wouldn't be playing with loaded dice!" - Eaubront, probably

and Zigovali would be Miguel in this situation

[Cecily Jisi]

This is an easy one for me. Cecily would be voiced by Laura Bailey as she sounds in the Saints Row games. Example below.

ld9MAqfVqiE

[Taejin]

The distinct lack of Doflamingo in this thread is bothering me...

 

Taejin definitely would have a Kurokiba Ryou thing going. Hes' got the spacey, blase thing going already...

 

 

 

 

he'd nicely (in a sense) channel his inner Accelerator when pushed passed the "I'm sick of your shit, let's get dangerous" threshold.

 

 

Incidentally, If I ever mustered the will or audacity to rp a second character, slap some horns and a tail on her and Alice is pretty much a dead ringer for my (visualized) Raen Au Ra, Bakkuda. Trollish personality and all.

 

[Parth Makeo]

I can't find a good clip of it myself but...

Quint is voiced by Dorothy R. Wayneright. Right down to her monotone delivery.

 

All and any clips i find do not do her voice justice unless it's a full episode.

 

Well i guess to be more accurate, Lia Sargent the VA
