I'm always trying to picture in my head what all these character would be like in real life, y'know? Their expressions, mannerisms, and voices. So, I thought, why not make a thread to help with that illustration? Having a concrete voice to go with the faces and personalities of your character makes the experience that much more rad.

I went looking for voice actors that fit the voice I imagine for Ali, and along my long hunt, I found the perfect one. I hoped guys do the same :P post videos/interviews/snippets of your depicted character voices here! I'll start off.

Here's Ali's: YouTube video: D_D6eAM85kM[/youtube]

I can't wait to listen to some more.

Thank you ^-^ I think it's something we should all do, too, but sometimes finding the perfect voice for your character is really difficult. It depends on what you're going for.

Imagine this in a khajiiti version, its very hard to get the perfect sound for haj, 'cause i've got this very unique idea for his voice, and it's very hard to find, but if there was just hints of a khajiiti accent, it would be perfect. I haven't RPed with haj recently so if you don't know, he has the answer to every question. In all seriousness, he will at the least give you a convincingly good answer to a problem most of the time, unless it's something that like, he is unable to answer for whatever reason. I'm sure theres probably a more consistant video with lots of mannerisms and whats its but i prefer to go with this cuz i don't feel like listening to a thousand actors/voice actors i don't know and such and such, it took long enough to find this in itself.

((just listen to 0:06 to 0:08))

This is Fedris, pretty much based him off of Miguel from The Road to El Dorado and a man I once knew.
His mannerisms and voice are spot on. Miguel is the blond one :p

So when I think of Racuvar's voice, I picture Robert Carlyle who has just the best accent/voice ever. His voice is a lot stronger Scottish in real life, but I like his voice in the portrayal of "Mr. Gold" from Once Upon A Time.
I couldn't pick a best scene, so I put a few clips to show the range.

Hloriella's voice is tougher to get I think. I want to say the closest I could find is Charlize Theron. So picture her voice though with a bit more rough/rugged tones.

Hloriella.

i think i said this before but whatever...
I based Afer off of a fire emblem character ((clearly one of my most favorite games)) and that same character shares the same voice as him, UNFORTUNATELY Fire emblem is not a game where they talk a lot sooo I can show you videos with small clips with this amazing voice in them.

Spoiler
Im sorry but most characters talk most when they confess their love to another. but heres one.its 3:50 to 4:00.https://youtu.be/jFQhMBIizWQ?t=3m50s


Spoiler
For this one the voice actor did the world a solid and voiced a line that was not said in game. But most of this is him shouting moves in heroic tone soo yeah hero Afer shouts, but near the middle he talks normally, possibly the best representation on how he sounds. https://soundcloud.com/kaiji-tang/owainlines ((note, some reason i cant post sound cloud links so click the first link to this forum post http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=46335 ))

His octive goes up based on moods and who he's talking to >.> but this is what he sounds like. This is like, basically conversational I'd say. Originally he sounded much more like Ben Winshaw, but that was when I rp'd him when he was a teenager. So his voice has changed a little now.

Korvos - Ville Valo, frontman of HIM
His accent is usually thick, since he's not skilled at speaking Cyrodiilic. The singing voice is also the same - Korvos is reluctant to sing in front of people, but when he does, he kills it.

Elros's voice and accent. I like to think that Mikael's style of speech fits Elros/Shado perfectly because of his repressed anger and the harsh words he uses. Elros's voice: Mikael

While not her voice tone and pitch (Posted that somewheres in the thread) I based Hloriella's pattern of speech off of two very different characters.

Her vulgarity and bandit-ish tones, style, aka Vulgar Hlor:
Spoiler

Her more proper *cough* noble speech pattern, aka Fancy Hlor:
Spoiler


Put em together and bam. That is my dunmer's speech pattern and style.

She has a Hlaalu influence accent, but I have no complete idea of what it sounds like yet. I picture a New Zealand chain smoker's accent.

So. Charlize Theron tone/voice + New Zealand smoker's accent + spoken in the style of Mugen (vulgar) and Holo (proper) = Hloriella. Yep. Dere you peeps go. The more you know.

Kinda how I picture my Afer's voice. (Weeb content ahead) Starts around 1:40ish. Skip to that. The first part is not related)

[/youtube]

One thing I love about Kaiji Tang's Odin and Owain voice, is that it somehow manages to be both silly AND badass at the same time. Which makes his "overly theatrical" lines infinitely funnier to me. Which is how I feel matches how I RP Afer. Considering this is the character I based him off of when I made him back then.

Segal sounds like Lokir in this mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDSJcxvsYCc
He's basically just a standard, rough voiced farmer Breton, I made him purposely to be boring.

Hazdara Sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTTKR52uigw
I gave him a big deep voice to fit his big shallow personality. He's always talking loudly, projecting, like he's seeking attention from an audience, and sometimes there is a bit of a whine perfectly captured by the actor.

This is Notsu: [cant find an example]
Her voice is a bit harsher, matching the character too. Although her accent is more breton/modern, with a very apathetic tone.

And finally, Sura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9id9Zva5mg
Her voice is softer, while still feigning a khajiit accent. I tried to make a cutsy khajiit while still following khajiit culture. That means accent, some scratchiness,
