RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Erik Mynhier - 07-02-2014
I hear a slight accent in Erik's voice, with a higher then would be assumed voice, so this guy here, the actor not the character he plays. My voice is similar with a different accent.
I always picture Xydane having a voice like John Constantine.

Hrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm.
In the beginning, twas David Tennant whom I envisioned for Galen Aubrey's voice. He has an incredible range of expression from playful to -very- serious.

But, as time has passed, his voice has been dulled by constant contact with a variety of people. It's turned into a muddied, aristocratic, tone.
Therefore, I'd say he sounds more like Kyle Schmid as Robert Morehouse in the BBC show "Copper". Sadly, I couldn't find a decent clip on youtube.

What's funny is that I watched that film for the first time two days ago.
RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Aya - 07-05-2014
I have finally found inspiration! Although she doesn't have a French accent
Tuesday Weld, an actress who played Thalia Menninger on the 1950's sitcom "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis". The show may be a little dated, but her voice is lovely for Aya!
(Starting at 3:05. For whatever reason I can't figure out how to go to the right time, even though the link I enter will go to the right time, the embed does not)

I've always given this some thought but I'm never able to decide what Gharen sounds like. I had the same problem with another character back in CoH that shared the Scottish accent.
RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Siha - 07-05-2014
More inspiration from Wolf's Rain apparently! Myu is the closest I've gotten to someone sounding like Siha in my head.
RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Roen - 07-28-2014
Voice actor for Roen would have either been Anna Torv or Charlize Theron. Former I discovered later when I discovered Fringe, latter I decided on from the beginning as who she was played by when Roen was a D&D character (Years ago!).
I am only reviving this thread as an excuse to put this link up. A) Charlize Theron with a shaved head (!!) and B) because it looks pretty kick ass.
I am excited.

Bartolomeo's voice

Saw this and couldn't resist playing along! o:
Thought about it for quite a while, and I believe Natalie Dormer (as Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones) comes closest to what I envision Xheja's voice to be. Just the overall quality to her voice, the accent, and her more refined manner of speaking, as well as how she's able to pull off playfulness, seriousness, and authoritative tones.. Just seems very Xhej-like when I listen to her speak.
She's the one in the blue dress in the following clip, in the off chance you aren't a raving GoT lunatic like I am and are unfamiliar. xD

RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Aerghwab - 07-29-2014
Joe Romersa fits the bill for Aerghwab. He tends to do small parts in most anime and games he's been in, but he's always instantly recognizable. Especially when he uses his trademark "growl."

Jump to 9:22 for Joe.

For Mahvashi, the immortal Kathleen Turner, especially when she was a young woman.

For C'rhisi...hmmmm that's a difficult one. Â I'm honestly not certain. Â Anyone that's RP'd with her have any ideas?
RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - Swashbuckler - 07-31-2014
For Sizha'to Chalahko, I finally found someone that really fits.
Below is a video of Matthew Mercer. Sizha'to's voice would closely resemble that of Leon Kennedy's from Resident Evil 6. Especially the part where he's yelling out of frustration. Go to about 4:16.

After much consideration, I can now get in on this thread.
I've always heard Gus as Christopher Eccleston in my mind.
As for L'yhta, it took some thought, but I'm going to have to go with Melissa Fumero (lately of Brooklyn 99). In fact, in a straight up casting, she could totally pull off L'yhta's unique blend of hyperactive and desperately attention seeking.
Sadly, I've yet to find a good clip -- damn you FOX lawyers.
RE: Who would be your character's voice actor? - WanderingWordsmith - 08-18-2014
I had a quick look at L'yhta's wiki, mainly her personality. From the pool of voice actors that I know, and my limited understanding of L'yhta, maybe Michelle Ruff? Her rendition of Katherine in, well, Catherine, might suit her - a combination of eloquence when she's calm and incredibly aggressive when slighted seems like it could work (from 5:50):

I don't know, though. I reckon I'd have a better idea if Averill interacted with her at some point.
After the initial spasms of joy at the thought of Liam O'Brien voicing Averill, I decided to think a little more seriously about it. I think Dave Wittenberg might be a good pick - his approach to Welkin Gunther, from Valkyria Chronicles, fits the kind of voice I imagine Averill to have (from 2:20):
