For what game/project?
BG2: SoA and ToB NPC mod.

Male of female?
Female obviously.

How many lines of text must be voiced?
I suppose I would like to start with her basic sound set. That would be 44 lines. Then maybe some more lines for dialogues... but not all. I would add something like 15. Well, the nuber of those dialogue lines depends on actor's free time.

What kind of voice is needed?
A young (18-19 years old) girl - priesstress/thief. She is kind and gentle. I would call her combined Aerie and Imoen. She speaks with charname with respect. Her character is neutral good.
I think the British accent woudl be great for her, so if there are some people from England... it would be great, you know... ^_^

Any specific audio format?
Hmm, I think mp3 or ogg woudl be the best.

Deadlines?
Hmm, it would be great to have it soon, but I gues that may be impossible :P I think there aren't any deadlines for now. SoA is still being checked, and ToB is in process of being written.

Anything else you woul like to say?
I think no. If you would like to give it a try, just give me a sample. Some lines are here, under this request.

SAY SELECT_COMMON4 ~I'm eager to help.~ [Yvet025]
SAY SELECT_COMMON5 ~Mhm?~ [Yvet026]
SAY SELECT_COMMON6 ~What's your need, lord?~ [Yvet027]
SAY SELECT_ACTION1 ~Claim it done!~ [Yvet028]
SAY SELECT_RARE1 ~Hm, you know this whole adventuring is a nice experience. It's quite enjoyable, to be honest.~ [Yvet035]
SAY SELECT_RARE2 ~Lovely!~ [Yvet036]
SAY PICKED_POCKET ~That's something quite extra-ordinary.~ [Yvet044]


You don't have to record all - 2-3 lines should be fine (unless those are 'Mhm' and 'Lovely!' - those are quite short :P )

I would like to say thank you to all people who would like to give it a try :)

Could do. I'll see if I can't record them this weekend, they won't be terribly good quality because I don't have my things here with me but you'd see what I'm like, at least.

(No promises though, so anybody else that's considering trying it-- please do)

EDIT: I forgot to ask, what sort of accent were you looking for exactly? Just 'British' is vague but I'm assuming you probably mean the stereotypical one

Probably yeah - the stereotypical :P However, if you are of other nationality, you can also try to speak normally... I wrote prabably strange... demands, but that's in case if someone from Britain would like to give it a try. If noone would like to try in a day or two, I would tell that other accents are fine...
However, it's great that you want to give it a try! Please, try to record even if it won't be in a super-great quality. I will know your voice and then I will just wait until you have 'your things' ;) (I gues that would be a computer or microphone...)

Thx again! BTW, you look quite as a character the voice is for (if that's a real photo in your profile) :D If you want to ask some more questions about the character or to look at whole soundset, write me a PM :)

And sorry for my english... I've just woke up, you know... ;)

I've got them done, sorry in advance for the odd thumping noises at the end of each one (I finally figured out that it was actually the sound of my fingers hitting the touchpad, I had no idea :S ) but I only have my laptop right now so I can't fix it. Also, I know you asked for MP3 or OGG but I don't have my converter software on here either so I'll have to send them as WAV files, sorry. If you PM me your email address I'll send you the files. [:

EDIT: yep, that's a real picture of me, haha.
