It pains me to say this, because Wynne did such an excellent job in voicing Chloe, but if I'm going to have any spoken lines for Chloe in ToB, I'll have to find another voice actress since Wynne dropped out of the modding business. I figure while I'm at it, I could have the SoA parts re-recorded with the new actress as well as get some additional lines recorded that I didn't get a chance to when Wynne recorded for Chloe. So, if you're interested, let me know. Send me an audition recording, if possible to Lucythebeast@hotmail.com. Try to keep em small, because hotmail is rather fickle about large attachments. Otherwise, try to catch me on a messenger if your attachment is too large for hotmail to handle.

There are several other parts that could use voice acting as well, including: Akadia, Chloe's mum. Maybe another female role that I can't really mention without spoiling, but needless to say she's a teen so a younger voice could work.

When SoA comes along, the Chloe voice will be very important. Also, I'll want a male or two, don't know about females yet since I'm not that far along. Anyway, if you're interested in anything at all, let me know. Make an audition recording. If you want more hints on what I wanna hear, feel free to email, PM, or IM me. Thank you!

Ditto to every part of the above quote. I hope Wynne has every success with whatever she's doing, but I'm sure she'll be sorely missed by the BG2 modding community.

Lucy: I'm getting some new sound hardware soon, so after that if you need a male voice I'll be happy to volunteer.

I'd love to help, but my voice is less than good, and my recording consists of a 10 dollar microphone and cars running in the background. Very proffessional. Very Baldur's gate.

Voice less than good... well that's subjective isn't it? You never know, you voice might fit perfectly with the character. If you want to give it a shot go ahead. I suppose I should give some sample lines to record so I don't get submissions along the lines of "Uh... yeah... um... this is my voice. Ok bye." :-)

Males: I have traversed Faerun for many years, a whisper in the wind. I answer to no one, especially your mother. But I do have one regret in my life, and that is never knowing more than your name and the occasional tell of your deeds. Come, sit with me a while and tell me about yourself, Chloe.


Females: I did not give you life only to see you squander it. No matter your deeds, you are still my little girl. I want what is best for you, but I will not take away your choice in the matter. Decide now, cast off your worship of me and do as I request of you, or continue to regard me only as your goddess and forget that you even know of me. Choose now and do not look back.


Those lines may not appear, or may be a bit different in the end, but that should be plenty. If you only want to record a line or two of it, that is your choice as well. And feel free to try it in more than one way, if you like.

All right. Tell me this. What kind of voice. My voice seems upbeat. I'm definately not a dark, gloomy character. What kind of character *would* i be voicing?

Like I said, I might want more than one male voice actor. I'll know more one I actually have time to start writing the dialogues for Chloe-ToB. Do the voice however you want. If you want to try it more than one way, feel free. One of the male voices I'll want voiced will be strong but soft, not a loud booming voice like Minsc's but more like the type of voice that people pause to listen to even if it's barely above a whisper. That may be difficult to find though, so I'd settle for something close to it.

Just a bit curious.  The sample female line you've got there looks to be one of Akadia's.  Do you have a Chloe line you'd like an audition of?  I haven't a professional studio or anything, but I've an okayish voice, I'm told.  I've been looking forward to Chloe for a long time now.  Can't wait until you've got everything polished up!

You don't really need a studio, just some preparation and care.

Yeah look at the dialogue samples I have, like the Sample Banters thread, Sample GTKU, Sample Lovetalk, etc. Pick one you like. ;-) Or just use the one above and say it as you think Chloe would say it. It's up to you. I just wrote those lines out to get a feel for the person's voice. If you want to say it more than one way, that gives me a feel for your range. If you want to do the above line AND a Chloe line, that's fine. :-) I could use a new voice actress for Chloe and a voice actress for Akadia even before Chloe SoA gets released but if that is not to be it can wait will later.

I would simply love to help, but alas, I own no sound recording equipment and my parents would become all intrusive if I came home with any. :(

I guess I'll just wait in anticipation, like I'm sure everyone else is! :)

I think I can manage ;)

* In a strong, soft, yet suggestive voice *

"I have traversed Faerun for many years, a whisper in the wind. I answer to no one, especially your mother. But I do have one regret in my life, and that is never knowing more than your name and the occasional tell of your deeds. Come, sit with me a while and tell me about yourself, Chloe."

* usual voice *

Now, how was it ?
I am always right. I once thought I made a mistake, but I was wrong.

Sometimes I lie awake at night and ask "Why me?" Then a voice answers, "Nothing personal, your name just happened to come up."

Hello! I'm new here... one of my friends clued me into all the mods out there for Baldur's Gate 2, waiting to be downloaded.... so I reinstalled the game after it had been gathering dust for about a year and a half... and am back to my goblin hacking ways... Anyways... I hear you need a voice actor....

Well, I'd probably be up for it... I do actual acting at school (im in Grade 11 rite now) and people say I'm pretty decent.... I can do mostly any part with a voice... a thug, an idiot, a player... i could give it a shot... I have a microphone and everything.... i think it owuld be pretty interesting...

Im a guy... so obviously i can only do male roles.... if you wanna contact me, my email is a_gangji19@hotmail.com

Good luck with Chloe! I'm looking forward to it :D
